Before You Begin
Following a 1-minute warmup, this workout is is made up of 2 sets, each with 4 exercises performed for 3 rounds. Every move is a compound workout activating more than one major muscle group. The purpose of the workout is to strength train your entire body in a fun and quick 2:1 work:rest ratio. I alternated between 15 and 20 lb dumbbells.
