STRENGTH: Total Body Short Circuit 5 - Full Body Workout in Under 15 Minutes With 1 Set of Dumbbells

Short on time but still need to get in a great total body strength session today? Look no further than this efficient, but effective, total body circuit workout that hits every major muscle group in less than 15 minutes!

We'll circuit through (meaning little to no rest in between moves to maximize every minute) 5 compound moves to hit a variety of muscles, with extra emphasis on the larger groups:

Move #1: Alternating Rear Lunge and Opposite Arm Curl to Press (Glutes, Biceps, Shoulders)

Move #2: Squat, Hinge and Row (Quads, Hamstrings, Back)

Move #3: Split Squat and Overhead Extension (Quads, Glutes, Triceps, Shoulders)

Move #4: Chest Press and Core Alternating Leg Drop (Chest, Abs)

Move #5: X-Pull Down and Inner Thigh Squeeze (Back, Glutes, Inner Thighs)

If you have more time, skip back to move #1 to perform one or two more circuits of the exercises for a longer workout. Remember you can increase your weight if you are ready for it to increase intensity at any time (or conversely, reduce your weight or use no weight at all to make it easier on your body). Please be sure to listen to your body throughout the workout and make any additional modifications you may need as we go.
