Getting the most out of this 6 minutes workout
When you’re doing short workouts you want to keep the rest times as short as possible to keep up the intensity.
In this case, you’ll be taking 15 seconds of rest in between each set.
On the chart above, it says you should do 2 sets of each for 30 seconds.
When you complete the first set you’re going to rest for 15 seconds then move on to doing it again for 30 seconds.
Do that until you complete the whole routine.
This might seem hard but if you do this consistently you’re going to definitely feel and see the changes.
