Each round of this workout will take you four minutes to blast through. Perform each exercise below on either side of your body, for 30 seconds each. Rest for 20 seconds between exercises and three minutes between rounds, aiming for three in total.

In terms of weight, he suggests beginners use either their bodyweight or 5lbs dumbbells, if you’re more intermediate grab 10lbs,15lbs, 20lbs or 25lbs. Here’s your exercises:
