PHYSICAL FITNESS

MAP PROGRAM WEEK 1 (IFP)

COACH’S TIP
Train with intensity and focus especially when working out at home or with minimal equipment. As we don’t have much external load to work with like we do in a gym setting where there’s bars and dumbbells, most of the benefit (both physically and mentally) will come from pushing yourself as hard as you can during the workout!

1. Camel Cat stretch x 20

2. Shoulder Rotations x 20 (use a towel or broomstick)
