Requirements

  • Just a willingness to invest in yourself as the strong beautiful woman you are
  • To complete the exercise program you will need access to a resistance band (theraband) - any colour you are comfortable with, a mini-trampoline, a foam pad/pillow, a stick (like a broomstick), a small step and an exercise/physio ball
  • BUT if you do not have access to these, you can modify the exercises. There are still a lot you can do without it, I would advise just at least getting a resistance band to use.
  • You should be healthy, get clearance from your doctor if you are unsure if you can start exercise.
