This total body muscular endurance workout is sure to leave no muscle untouched or under worked.

The circuit section in the middle of the workout , is approx. 20 min in length and will provide you with a "shock your metabolism" effect since it consists of 5 cycles - each one moving quickly from high intensity step - to plyo step - to a very brief recovery and immediately into leg work with weights.)
The third section is approx. 20 min. in length and provides an all-out-non stop- upper body-weight workout that is similar in style to "Maximum Intensity Strength", however, the focus is on endurance and the rest periods are shorter.
