Still feeling sluggish thanks to a belly full of chocolate and hot-cross buns last weekend? You're not alone. Easter can take it's toll and seriously derail even the most robust of health kicks, but once all the left overs are finished, it's time to get back on track.
Keeping in the Easter theme, we've pulled together our favourite combination of exercises, designed to work every energy system and torch body fat. Give your metabolism the kick start it needs with a serious dose of "CHOCOLATE".
