Workout Program Description
Tried to create a workout that mirrored the Body for Life program. I workout at home with dumbbells, so I chose only exercises with dumbbells or using body weight. For the aerobic activities, I included treadmill and outdoor running. I'm not sure if road biking fits well in the BFL program, but I enjoy it, so I included it.
