Description: Compound Workout 💥

Utilizing compound movements today! One of my favorite ways to train. Why? Using multiple muscles and joints at the same time is not only beneficial for overall strength, but helps burn more calories, build more muscle, increase body balance, improve joint flexibility, and many other benefits. OH AND, it it’s an easy way to feel really sore the next day. 👍🏼 

Pick a weight on each exercise that you can easily do for all 4 sets. Stay strict to the 30 second rest time.
