Quick Workout Won’t Disappoint
Alright, are you ready for round #2 of the AWESOME bodyweight bootcamp workouts I was teaching in Europe last week?
I hope so… because this one was interesting.
As I was going through the workout with the students, I thought:
WHAT WAS I THINKING?
LOL.
Because the final “Ladder” superset seemed like a good idea at the time when designing the workout…
…but WOW was it ever hard.

- Do not rest between exercises in the supersets (exercise pairs)
- Rest 30 seconds at the end of each superset
