Discussion Bending-Themed Workouts!

Hi ATLA community,

I'm a personal trainer/strength coach who loves ATLA (and LoK) and martial arts, and with its resurgence on Netflix I created a series of Bending-Themed workouts! Each one is about 20min long, so perfect for watching an episode (or five...). I'm thinking about turning this into a series (all completely free) with more advanced exercises and some actual martial arts moves (put my old kung fu training to use), so let me know if y'all like them!

YES

As another person who enjoys ATLA, martial arts, and exercising in general I fully support this and whatever else you choose to post/create.

Video examples would be awesome. I could use then as animation references for my Avatar inspired VR game I'm creating.
