400m lap to shake the legs out, and then, in keeping with the day’s “extra” theme, perform final round with all four exercises one more time.

Moving into the upper body portion with the same format.

Soundtrack consisted of bonus/hidden tracks through the years, and there were some real nostalgic gems in there.
