What’s more is that the company revealed plans today for an obvious expansion pack set to contain 30 additional workouts, focused on upper and lower body strengthening as well as cardio.
Also in the expansion pack is the new “Six Week Challenge.” This program consists of daily routines that ramp up in difficulty over the course of the period.
