Can’t beat a 2min20 plank, but how about some cross training circuits? 5x25 Sprints, Kettlebell Swings, Weighted Burpees, Walking Lunges & Press-Ups. 🥵 I nominate @FareenaRasaq @ian_rs83 and @MyersEstelle #YST25

1. The govt strategy on #Coronavirus is more refined than those used in other countries and potentially very effective. But it is also riskier and based on a number of assumptions. They need to be correct, and the measures they introduce need to work when they are supposed to.
