Express Workout!

In today's "fast pace" society we are always wanting something faster or less time consuming. Here is a fast pace, but short workout you can perform over a lunch hour or within the comport of your own home! All you need is set a dumb bells. Base the weight off your personal fitness level - do what you can tolerate! This is an interval based workout and you are to perform the sequence as fast as you can. I came across this fun little routine through Oxygen . I like to add a sprint or two after the end of a full sequence and before the next. Push yourself and enjoy!
