The Eternal Beach-Body Plan: Workout 12

If you thought previous workouts in the Eternal Beach-Body Plan moved quickly, just wait until you try this one.

This workout—the twelfth and final routine in Eternal Beach-Body Phase I—keeps rest periods short and the work volume high, ensuring an epic pump and a barrage of muscle-building moves. With most rest periods limited to 20 seconds or so, you won’t have much time to chitchat or watch TV at the gym.

In fact, with this many reps and this little rest, this workout will probably feel more like a high-intensity circuit than an old-school bodybuilding routine. But grow you will—and fast.

Directions

Do each exercise in straight sets; complete all sets of each exercise before moving on to the next.

Make sure you pay attention to the designated rest—20 seconds will go by fast, and you’ll be well served by tracking your rest periods on your watch or on a clock.

Because the rest periods are so short and the volume is so high, don’t be afraid to choose relatively light weights.
