Lythe Leopard - Workout #1<\/h1><\/div>

Important: Watch the intro video and read all the info on the Lythe Leopard homepage<\/a> before attempting this workout for the first time.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Welcome to this lovely new series of workouts. They're a different from anything I've done before!<\/p>\n

The Lythe Leopard series is the perfect starting point for beginners and even if you've been doing my workouts for years I think it's going to be great to have a go-to series for anytime you want a less intense session to help you stretch out and recover, or as non-daunting first steps back to fitness after taking a break for any reason.<\/p>\n

I'm really excited to hear what you think of them!<\/p>\n

In today's workout you have the option of using light weights (or hold 2 small bottles of water, or tins of beans, etc.) if you'd like to add resistance, but if you're a beginner try it with no weights the first time and then add weights when you come back and repeat the session.<\/p>\n

Because this is the first workout, I spend a couple of minutes talking about some aspects of technique at the start of the video. I don't want you to skip that the first time you come to this workout, even for non-beginners it's worth getting a reminder, but there's no need to watch it every time when you come back to this session.<\/p>\n

In future you can use the timer bar on the video to skip the intro by scrolling through to around 3:40 where I begin the workout.<\/p>\n
