This Weekend Workout requires a jump rope.  If you don't own one already, you can sub in mountain climbers or jumping jacks.  But, really, just go get one.  Nothing will increase the effectiveness of your at home workouts like a jump rope.  Get one here or here.

Go straight down the list.  Record your time.  Try again in a few weeks and see if you can improve on your previous score.  (For a hard version, stick with 50 reps; intermediate complete 40 reps of each.)

Weekend Workouts are all about efficiency.  Get in, get out, done.  Weekend Workouts are also all about staying on track.  And there's no better way to stay on track than with a workout buddy.  So, for this one, grab a partner and knock it out.

Mark off a distance of about 100 yards. One partner runs while the other partner starts working on the first exercise.  Switch places when the runner gets back.  Complete all the reps of the first exercise before moving to the second. The rep count is total for the pair.

Get your weekend started off proper with this quick, 10-15 minute workout.  The main goal here is speed, with that being said, do not sacrifice proper form for quickness.  Try your best to hit the rep counts unbroken, and to complete a full round without resting.  If rest is required, do so between rounds. There will be an "(A)dvanced" option offered for each exercise, if you've been on a regular workout program, give some of the Advanced versions a try.  Remember, your goal is speed. If you get through two rounds of trying the harder version and can no longer complete the rep counts unbroken, scale down to the regular option. SPEED! SPEED! SPEED!
