This was the Cabo Vampire workout (as it was SO HOT – it ended up draining the life out of us for the rest of the day!)

TRX Inverted Row
TRX suspended lunge
TX Chest press
TRX single leg squat (each leg)

2B: Shuttle sprints (these quickly turned into shuttle jogging)

3: TRX Suspended Crunches to Body Saw
