It's World Health Day, and even though we're #stayinghome to help flatten the curve, we can still exercise! Are you excited to start training like a soon-to-be-action star? Of course you are! And like any would-be hero/ine, you know exactly how to get there: an epic montage.
But what really goes into a great montage, and what do you need to know to get started? With these simple steps, you’ll be the best around in no time.

“Great beach reading for the summer!”
“Be sure to toss this new title in your beach bag - next to the sunglasses and SPF 50!”
