Jillian's Total Body Workout
This routine is based on a Total Body group fitness class I have been teaching for years at the University of Florida. It incorporates a wide variety of strength training exercises which do not require the use of large machines. You might want to have a mat ready for the ground portion of the workout if your floor is too hard or dirty to lie down on.
