Following a 1-minute warmup, this workout is is made up of 3 sets of full body dumbbell exercises. There are 5 moves in each set followed by a 1-minute burn out challenge. The purpose of this workout is to build muscular strength and endurance by performing compound exercises with short rest intervals. I used 10 lb (4.5 kg) and 20 lb 9 kg) weights.
