CrossTri
Core routines consist of 12 exercises in 4 sets of 3 exercises each.
Hold each position for 30s to 60s except for dynamic exercises (in this case do as many reps as you can in 30s to 60s)
Do them in order with no rest in between exercises nor sets.
When a position requires one arm/leg, then do half time right & half time left (15s to 30s each)
Total time is
Beginner: 6 min = 12 x 30s
Intermediate: 9 min = 12 x 45s
Advanced: 12 min = 12 x 60s
