This 7-Step Prep can be used as a warm up or a work in day. Make sure to follow notes so you only have to use a Band and 1 ViPR for this warm-up to minimize Equipment. This would be great to use prior to an agility, sports performance, and heavy UMT or LMT day. This could also be used to strengthen/develop your foot and ankle on a work in day. If it’s going to be used for a work in day, be sure to complete 3-4 sets of this circuit.
