Crossift and other high intensity interval training workouts are extremely popular these days. Fitness-lovers love them because they scorch calories in a relatively short amount of time. The goal with these types of workouts is to either complete the most reps possible in a given amount of time or do the reps as quickly as possible.
While these types of workouts aren’t for everyone, they can be a great way to fit in a killer workout in a short amount of time. The other great thing about these workouts is most exercises can be modified to use just body weight or free weights, so the workout can be done anywhere - no gym equipment needed!
Check out the Crossfit-inspired workouts below and save this post for the next time you’re ready to get your sweat on.
