SHANNON: “Members can tailor these workouts to their fitness level and weight loss goals by adjusting the intensity of walking, jogging, or running. Incorporating intervals of higher intensity, like fast-paced walking, jogging, or running, lets members level up at their own pace. Focus on consistency and gradually increasing intensity for effective weight loss.

SHANNON: “Australia’s landscape, especially in Cairns and the Whitsundays, is beautiful and adds a unique touch to the series. The diverse terrains of Cairns’ lush rainforests and coastal trails make each workout an adventure. Meanwhile, the stunning beaches of the Whitsundays provide a picturesque backdrop.
