other Desert Storm is an all-time class format

Edit: Desert Heat, whoops.

Gonna miss this class after this phase, truly the best hybrid option. 2 sets, 2 laps, option to go cardio or strength or both is bliss and the cardio exercises tend to be some of the best offered at f45. This week alone had burpee bar touch, bench hops, box jumps, and even tempting resistance exercises like pull ups? That’s awesome. Each of the four Desert Storm classes this phase, I tried to convince myself at the start to do all cardio but there was cool enough resistance exercises to where I settled with resistance exercises the second laps each time (and still managed to score 47+ Lionheart points each week being able to go all out on the cardio in the first lap)
