The Lucky 7 Shamrock Workout
Challenge yourself with this strength-packed circuit that will test your stamina, power, and grit. Learn the moves and let your effort be as bold as your luck!
Challenge Directions:

- Perform each exercise for 21 reps (because 21 is lucky!)
- Complete the circuit 3 times (because 3’s a charm!)
- Rest 1-2 minutes between rounds.
- Maintain a strong pace, focusing on control and form to maximize both strength and endurance.
