Dynamic Duos

Our workout uses combo moves to build muscle, burn fat, and shake up a stale exercise routine, says Robert dos Remedios, a strength and conditioning coach at College of the Canyons in Santa Clarita, California. "Best of all, it adds intensity and burns more calories in less time." Each set of moves (move 1 goes with 2, move 3 with 4, etc) is a "dynamic duo," two moves that together work as a superset.

Start with any set of moves and complete each exercise (6 to 10 reps of each), resting for 60 to 90 seconds after finishing both moves. Repeat for a total of two sets per duo. Start the next pair of exercises, completing two sets in the same way. Really strapped for time? Pick any duo and perform three sets of each move without rest.
