1 | This workout is low-impact and safe to perform 3 or 4 times a week if you so desire. But try to give your muscles a rest day in between. One set of each move – with a 30-sec rest in between – is enough, especially for beginners, says Pasterino. But if you feel like you need a bit extra, you can repeat the circuit.

3 | The P.sit (exercise 1) forms the basis of many of the moves within the P.volve method. ‘It’s designed to counteract quad dominance,’ says Pasterino. ‘The glutes are the biggest muscles in your body – you want to rely on them more than you do the legs.’ So, it’s really important you follow the step-by-step.

It’s not a squat.
