i'm flowin' down
POP40 Vol. 1: Benchwarmer Weekend

3m 45s
This flow only takes a couple watches to nail the routine. For half the song, you will repeat the sun salutation sequence at your own pace as you go from Mountain Pose to forward fold to plank to upward dog to downward dog and back up again (with a few moves in between). This is such a great flow to start off work out because it really warms up those muscles and stretches you in all the right places. Plus it's a lot of fun once you get the hang of the transitions and just start flowing with the music!

my body won't drag me down
This song goes by so fast that you will almost (ALMOST) forget how bad your arms will be burning by the end. There is a lot of room for modification here in between level one and level two. It might look like there are a lot of moves in this routine, but really it's just two sequences you have to...

let me burn slowly
Don't be fooled by the slow beat, this routine has a lot more going on than it seems. For level one, we're going to take it slow and isolate the hamstring muscles. In level two we take it up a notch by adding in tricep dip kicks and adding ankle weights for extra tension. By the end of the second...

sucker for step ups
Ever done step ups for 3 minutes straight? This routine is easy to learn and will go by quickly once you've got the steps down. Make sure you have a sturdy surface to step up on and focus on keeping your form while matching your reps to the music. To level up, add ankle weights and/or hold a dumb...
