This workout is what I taught in my Siskey YMCA Total Strength class this morning. This one was a doozy!!! The lack of rest is what adds up and makes this one of the toughest classes I've taught yet. The pattern here is an easy one to follow and to use on your own; substitute the exercises with different exercises of your choice each time you do this. Change it up...ALWAYS!
