Exercise Challenge: Plate Spinning

This week our exercise challenge guinea pig was our very own Uncle Mark. You will hold a 5kg weight plate to your chest and quickly spin 10 times on the spot. You will then throw the plate on the ground and step onto it as quickly as you can. The winners will be the people with the fastest times.
Thanks to Uncle Mark for being our crash test dummy!
