Sports Hour with @karin__lundstrom 🔥

“Sometimes, simplify to make movement happen. Like. At home 4 exercises to target important muscles for upper back strength and core stability, week spots (for many). Do it with a band to make it really burn (challenging).

Start by moving optional way into this day 10.000 steps - walk, run, dance…

Then find a floor space and do 3-5 rounds each side for quality:
