* Bring Sally up - The concept is extremely simple. We play Moby's song "Flowers". Then in the rhythm of the words of the song - "up" and "down" - you take the position, fall and rise to take off. The planks, low chair, legs near the ground. (Round I - walking plank - core and arms - Round II squat - legs - Round III raising legs - ABS)
