WHAT IT IS

A five-exercise, five-round circuit that subs in full-body exercises for single-joint movements to target all the major muscles in your body. Pullups and bench dips will hit your arms and shoulders, while broad jumps and step-ups will build a strong lower body—calves included.

WHY IT WORKS

What makes this circuit so brutal is the exercise mechanics. Instead of a regular pushup, you bring one leg off the ground and to your elbow, making your core and arms work harder. This is a terrific way to hit all your major muscle groups.
