The 5-4-3-2-1 Workout That Everyone is Talking About

I'm not sure what you have heard about exercise regimes, but I've come across the 5-4-3-2-1 workout, which I highly recommend for those who cannot do a lot of exercise and want to lose weight quickly.





I am currently following the Chemical Diet Plan, and this exercise regimen serves as a bonus workout that can be incorporated into any diet. Take a look below and begin this regimen a couple of days before starting your diet. It will boost your energy and help you feel more positive about your weight loss diet.

  1. What I liked best is that the program was personalised to me specifically so I could start the program first thing the next morning after I arrived. I’m told often guests arrive at the airport in afternoon/evening,  Rachel Worthman
