P.S. Choose a weight for your dumbbells that is challenging enough that on your second set it requires more effort to reach the required reps. (you should be working harder every set!)

P.S.S. Keep your intensity high at all times!

Tyler,

This workout kicked my butt! It was definitely a reminder of how badly I need to be doing strength training. As sore as my muscles are right now, I can't wait to do this workout again and really get back into it! Thanks so much!

I was able to do 3 sets of each Super Set and do the exercises in Core Circuit A 5 times in a total of about 30 minutes.

Just finished this workout. It took me about 35 minutes. I completed 3 sets of each superset - except for the core circuit - I got in 4 sets in the 10 minutes. I am excited to see the workouts that are coming over the next 12 weeks! Colyn
