The workout routine included: Leg Raise, Pull-Up rounds, Shoulder Fly, Arm Raise, Physio Ball V-Up, Isometric Pushup, Bosu Ball Pushup, Triceps Extension, and Dumbbell Curl to Press. The workout activities were done in quick succession with each other, with only a break of two minutes for each round.
