3 Stage Workout- Take the Challenge!!

This workout has three different stages. The first stage is an upper body workout, followed by a lower body, and finishing up with core work. Once one stage is started, focus on limiting the amount of rest between each exercise (i.e. once you start jump roping push the pace all the way through the dumbell rows, then rest).
