There's nothing worse than having to cut out on a workout because you don't have enough time, or the routine just has way too many exercises. If you're the type of guy that loves the no-small talk, get in and get out workout, whether it be at a your favorite gym, a CrossFitbox or even a playground, we've got a short, sweet and simple one for you.
We stopped by The Training Room Online in Point Pleasant Beach and Avon, New Jersey to get a 20-minute sweat sessions workout from owner and head trainer, Mike Stehle.
