A kick butt workout to try!

So I have been a very, very lazy blogger. Life has been so crazy and so busy. I've returned to college and have had numerous papers to research and write. Anyhow, I have not been skipping workouts. Still teaching Body Boot Camp 4X a week. Still running, lifting, etc, etc. I just posted on my other blog about Day 2 in Vibram FiveFingers. I think I'm ruined now, I won't ever be able to go back to regular running shoes. Vibrams are wonderful!

Anyhow, here is a kick butt 65 minute workout I put togehther for class the other night. If you don't have that much time, just cut out a repetition or two of one of the circuits or even a whole circuit.
