Summer isn't far away and let's face it, we cannot flaunt our winter body on the beach now can we? For those who work out regularly, you got nothing to worry about but some couch potatoes who like snuggling in their blankies during winter break; now need to look lean and mean. Follow this routine to achieve that beach bod.
Perform each exercise for 30 seconds unless reps are noted.
