Try This Killer Outdoor Circuit Workout Using Just Your Bodyweight (Video)

The workout I have today can be done anywhere with an open field. It combines a little of everything—speed, strength, and agility. It’s a great way to get outside and change up your routine from just running, which is by far the most common outdoor workout. Remember, too much long running will ruin your hard earned beach body (by eating away your muscle) and you’ll end up looking less toned and more flabby. It’s best to mix up your workouts with shorter, more intense workouts to burn the fat while keeping your lean muscle.
Watch the video below to see the entire workout. Oh, by the way I somehow talked my wife into demonstrating it. Check out her reaction and see what she really thinks about it!
