A workout that involves a hair tie? We are sooooo back 😎 March’s #GalGotGrip is heeeeeere 🥳 This one is courtesy of one of the UK’s finest - Becky Neal 🇬🇧 We all lived vicariously through the stories from her Antarctica adventure earlier on this winter, where she became the first woman (and one of the first people ever!!!) to complete an OCR in Antarctica 🇦🇶🥶 If you missed out on all that fun via our stories back in Dec, you can find all the shenanigans on her profile @therunnerbeanuk . It’s cool as fuck ❄️ Becky is current British OCR Champion and has been in the sport for a whopping 10 years!!! Safe to say that she knows a thing or two about training and racing 🤪 Take this workout for a spin and let us know how you get on 🫶🏼 Do all of the exercises back to back and then take a 6 min rest between rounds 🧘🏼‍♀️ Form video will follow this eve ✨
