Today, I tried out a workout routine one of my coworkers has been going on and on about. It's called the
SPARTACUS WORKOUT 2.0!!!!
You have to use the exclamation points. It's a workout that was originally created to help the star of the TV show Spartacus get into shape. Then the magazine Men's Health revamped the workout last year. It's pretty simple to do, but it will kick your but the same way Leonides kicked that messenger down the hole.
Here's a link to the workout.

THE SPARTACUS 2.0 WORKOUT
All you need are some dumbbells. That's it. You go through ten different exercises, doing each for a minute at a time. It takes about 45 minutes in total, which is awesome when you consider you can do it while you watch one episode of the Walking Dead or Glee.
I used this online timer, since it automatically restarts when it reaches the end, so you can just keep going.
Also, since the Men's Health website has the workout demonstrated in a blog style format, I put it all into one JPG so you can just open it on the screen and see which one you need to do next. Just download the image and save it to your desktop (or wherever you like).
Also, I found it easier to understand exactly what I was supposed to do after I watched the following video. This guy does a great job of showing the proper movement for each exercise.
I opened up the timer, the workout poster and a movie all at once, and just went. I was dead at the end, especially my legs. So if you haven't exercised for a while, I'd highly recommend maybe only doing half the amount of exercises at once, or split the top and bottom into two days for a while. Also, keep water handy and take sips between sets.
Good luck. Just remember that before you exercise you should eat a good breakfast, for tonight...WE DINE IN HELL!
...or at a nice restaurant.
