Take our toughest total-body conditioning workout on the road! We’ve packed eight high-intensity exercises into one workout using plyometrics, or jumping, movements so you can do this routine anywhere, recruit the maximum force of your muscles in the shortest amount of time, and take your speed and strength to the next level. Group fitness instructor Levi James, aka Mr Abs, of New York Health & Racquet Club, designed this no-gym, body-weight workout to ward off holiday pounds and fortify your body and mind.
