Burst Circuit - 18 minutes

It takes a lot of "power" (in the physics sense of the word) to finish one of these sets quickly.  The burst circuit is about fast reps and speed of transition.  By now, many of my readers know that's not the only way to go but it makes for a fun workout.  It's like 6 races in a row so get a friend to compete with!




Start a new round every 3 minutes any remaining time in the "3 minute round" can be used as rest.



5 pullups
5 1 arm overhead dumbbell press (30#)
5 pushups
5 1 arm (other arm) overhead dumbbell press (30#)
5 pushups
25 squats

6 rounds

My fastest round was 50 seconds and on the 6th round I doubled the set and finished in 1:32.
