The Perfect Power Couple Workout
Get your heart rate up and your body fat down in just 15 minutes with this high-intensity interval training (HIIT) workout. Prepare for 5 intense rounds of 3 fat-burning exercises. Each round is repeated twice with a 10- to 20-second break in-between sets. Once you repeat each round 3 times, rest for 60 seconds before starting the next round. Grab your timer (and your partner) and get started!
Round 1
Round 1 consists of 3 exercises, 10 repetitions each. Complete all three exercises (squats, half burpees and mountain climbers) as quickly as possible with good technique. Rest 10-20 seconds before your next set. After you finish three sets, take a 60-second break before heading into round 2.
