This workout was one of the best so far in the PIYO line up. I felt challenged and engaged in what was on the screen. I sweated a lot, it is called drenched after all. There were many areas to be challenged in this work out and advanced options as well to push your limits. It definitely gave a great workout and i will keep it on my list of great total body workouts.

Hope you will join me again for workout day 13.
