NOTE: All workouts should be done after a proper warm-up.

BASIC STRENGTH WORKOUT : Variety Pack
Routine seems easy, however doing the same workout all the time does not benefit the body nearly as much as constant variety. My friend Mark Twight turned me on to this repetition change up, you can use any four exercises. Have fun!

One of my more favorite repeating series goes like this
20, 15, 10, 5
15, 10, 5, 20
10, 5, 20, 15
5, 20, 15, 10

Your first round would look like:
20 Over Head Press (can be done with dumbbells or kettle bells)
15 High pull with weighted bar
10 Standing or lying rotations
5 Step ups or box jumps

The next
15 Over Head Press
10 High pull with weighted bar
5 Standing or lying rotations
20 Step ups or box jumps
And so forth.
