Bob's Workout: (two 30-minute workouts)
This is an overall body workout; Bob says he’s walking us through what he does when he works out.

These workouts are set in a small grey and black gym, and they are one-on-one with Bob. Stephanie does the first workout and Zack does the second; Bob instructs but does not work out.
Stephanie stays with Bob’s pace, but Zach hits failure in the third circuit and pauses before and during each exercise. This adds some dead time to the dvd. I added in extra reps or kettlebell swings to make up for the dead time. It’s also possible to chapter forward to the next move.
