The BURST typically picks the best of cardio workout that there is and utilises the power of the same for completely redefining the body — its contours and strengths.

These Bursts are aligned in a way to give the body the maximum boost in both, the lower and upper body regions, providing a fabulous full body workout and core training in every four minutes.
