One-Off Workout: 5-Round, 5-Move Full Body Fat Burn Circuit
Instead of sticking to your day-in, day-out routine - randomly slip in a One-Off workout to break things up and test yourself.

MF associate editor and founder of HUMANFITPROJECT, Mike Simone shares a favorite workout for increasing endurance and burning off fat.

The circuit routine will consist of 5-moves and be completed in 5-rounds. Each time you attempt this workout, try and improve your completion time and/or increase the resistance.
