The Buff and Busy Workout


TGIF...Today is May 1st, which means there are only 3 weeks until the start of summer.

Not too sure if that applies to us here in Labrador, Canada though with the rain and wet snow falling outside...

So I decided I would give you time crunched dads a little kick start workout that I pulled from my training tickle trunk.

For complete exercise descriptions and to get over 16 weeks of fitness workouts for men download the Dad Fitness System HERE<==

The Buff and Busy Workout is more of an advanced muscle building workout, but can be done at home with minimal equipment and will get you on your way to building strong lean muscle and goodbye to that gut before the shirts come off this summer.

If you are just starting out, do a couple sets of each exercise until you improve your conditioning.
