Week 7 of the 12 Week Transform To Fit Workout Program! How are you making out?! Over half way through the program! I hope you’re starting to see some results. You should notice your endurance is getting much better. Less winded and stronger.

OTHER NOTES

If this is your first time seeing the program, I recommend you pop over to Week 1 to read what its all about.

Any questions, please leave a comment at the bottom of this post, and I’ll answer them. But please understand this is not a custom workout, and I won’t be providing modifications.

If you’re dealing with an injury, best to chat with your doctor or therapist about your workout limitations.

If you’re short on time, or a beginner, I’d recommend doing each set 3 times instead of 4. You can also skip the cardio portion completely if you’re short on time as you are getting a cardio blast in each set!

CHECK INS

I’d love for you to check in to tell me and show me your progress! Leave comments below on the week that you’re following, and connect with me on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram, tagging me @busybuthealthy and using the hashtag #T2FIT
