Are You Fitter Than Last Year?

How To Mobilise To Beat Your 16.4 Score
The variety of movements in this workout means there’s hardly a muscle in your body that you aren’t going to be using.

This weeks video proves that you can mobilise anywhere, and don’t need tons of space or fancy equipment. Although a box or bench is probably a good idea for the jefferson curls.
Check out this 3 and a half minute video for some valuable mobility tips that will help you move efficiently through these movements and beat your 16.4 score:
