It's pretty badass, tonight I did this routine:
Brief description of a few of the exercises
**there is a 10 sec. break after every exercise, I did not put it down below because it makes things too clustered.
**The entire workout takes 20 minutes and my heart rate was about 170 to 185 beats per minute. I weighed in at 168.5lb before the workout and 168 lb afterwards. My shirt was soaked too
platform jumps - using a small aerobics platform, stand about a foot away and hop up on the edge and then hop right back off. Do it non-stop as fast as you can for the 20 sec.
Squats - I used a barbell and light weights, only 45 pounds...go as fast as possible with good form for the 20 sec.
mountain climbers - I assume everyone knows what they are
medicine ball pushups - Take a medicine ball and I did 5 pushups with the ball in my left hand then I rolled it to the right hand and did 5 more, repeat as fast as you can for the 20 sec.
