Similar Workout: https://brienshamp.com/2013/06/24/personal-training-burlingame-61813-core-cardio-workout/

Phase 1: Warm-Up: Perform 3 minutes of diaphragmatic breathing while lying supine: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-_NNCrrdus Lie on back and initiate breathing with belly–>rib cage and then chest, instead of initiating with chest. Breathe in and out of nose for approximately 15s each breath (5s inhale–> 5 s hold–> 5 s exhale). Emphasize that campers do this upon rising and going to sleep and if they want an amazing shift in their state at any time, while breathing think about 3 things they are grateful for.

Phase 2: Floor Stretches (5 min) *Work on forearm/wrist mobility

Phase 3: Review WOD below

*Review WOD below during Phase 2 & 3 above and assign campers stations for the WOD below. After Phase 3 boot campers immediately transition to WOD. They can get water at any time on their own.

*Set Gym Boss or Interval App to: 1 min work time, 0 rest, 3 sets, 30s transition

Perform the following 4 stations in a circuit. Do station 1 for 3 min > station 2 for 3 min, etc. Repeat for 3 Rounds.  Rest approx. 30s in between stations for set up. This should take 36 minutes.

Notice there is no rest time in between exercises for II & IV. Just call out each minute and campers transition in stations II & IV. Get them to transition as quickly as they can, so keep equipment close.
