Awesome butterfly! Start at week one and be sure to fit in the rest tomes so you don't hurt. You can do more that way.

I have been very remiss about squats probably because I spend so much time dancing, riding my exercise bike, and walking my dogs. My legs feel overworked.

kevrit

That's ok Barbie. I've only been posting the instructions, not doing them. Bursitis and stress getting the best of me.
