20 Minutes

March 28, 2010 by Joe Gigantino  

Is your excuse that you don’t have enough time to workout? How about, if it only took 20 minutes to get a killer fat burning and muscle gaining workout? This is a 20 minute workout routine; with 12 minutes of work and 8 minutes of rest.

Warm up: 1 mile jog/run

Full Body Workout Routine:

- In 3 minutes do as many sets as you can of:

- 7 reps of Sumo Dead lift High Pulls

- 7 reps of Thrusters

- Advanced use 95 LBS. Women use 45-65 LBS.  Beginners scale as needed or use a lighter bar.

- After  the 3 minutes of work, rest 2 minutes and  then start again.  Keep track of your sets, within the 3 minutes. If  you don’t complete 7 reps, write down the number of reps you did.  For example, if you do 3 sets and only 5 Sumo Dead lift High Pulls then you would score 3 sets, 5 reps for that circuit.  Once you are done with all 4 circuits add up your sets and  post.
