These workouts are simple and efficient. Ony 3 pieces of equipment are required: a workout bench, a pair of dumbbells (I am using 25 lbs ones here), and a common, ordinary jump rope. Each workout consists of 3 strength exercises, 1 core exercise, and 1 cardio exercise using the jump rope. All of the strength exercises are compound total body movements that focus on the chest, back and legs. No exercise is repeated in any of these workouts! You go through 3 circuits with minimal rest.
