Today's Workout 2: The total-body burner

Shoulders. Arms. Core. Back. With these five straightforward moves—three of which are variations on the classic plank—you’ll hit every major muscle group in your upper body.

Most important, you’ll look great shirtless—whether it’s at the beach or in the bedroom.

Directions

You’ll do this workout as a circuit, meaning you’ll complete each exercise consecutively without rest. Once you’ve finished all exercises, rest for 30 seconds. Repeat the entire circuit for 5 to 10 rounds.

Depending upon your ability, you may shorten or lengthen the rest period. You may also complete more or fewer rounds.
