Northwood Recreation Outdoor Gym Session

Here is one possible workout that you can do in this outdoor gym that will really hit the spot.

It would be more effective after your normal running or walking session but is challenging enough to be done on its own, but only after a short warm up.

The straighter the body the harder the exercise
