Agreed – Blogilates.com! Cassey is awesome! So energetic and fun and her workouts are great! And, they’re on Youtube for free! Gotta love that.
Free is good! 🙂
Wow, thanks for the great summary. I love to squeeze in a short workout in the living room before I go to work. This way I don’t lose the time to walk to the gym and I can save quite a bit of money. This also one of the reason why I love running. It’s for free (unless you get obsessed with running clothes) and I can simply leave my house and start running
