How to do it

  1. Warm up for 5 minutes: brisk walk, arm circles and a few bodyweight squats.
  2. Do the exercises in order with good form. Slow down rather than rushing reps.
  3. Rest as listed, then repeat for the number of rounds or sets shown.
  4. Progress each week by adding one rep, a little weight, or one extra round.

Stop if anything hurts (not the same as feeling the burn). Pair this workout with a small calorie deficit and enough protein for fat loss.
