Day 11:Lower Back, Hamstrings & Upper Abs

This week I had somebody let me down. They were supposed to meet me at the gym for a cardio session together and they said their alarm clock didn't go off. We both know that’s bulls***. If they had a flight to catch, they would’ve been up. They just don’t value their own health, word, commitment or results enough to make the sacrifices I do. I trust you to buck that trend and follow this religiously.

It’s time for another lower back, hamstrings and upper abs workout already!
