“In football, they say that speed kills,” RGIII says. So it’s no surprise that his workout focuses largely on explosive movements performed with heavy weights and low rep counts, the type of training that can help turn slow guys into fast ones and fast guys into rocket ships.

The exercises are tough, even grueling moves that many other quarterbacks wouldn’t even consider in their programs. But if RGIII has made one thing abundantly clear, it’s that he’s not like other quarterbacks. His rapid-fi re training sessions are loaded with full-body exercises that challenge his power, conditioning and will all at once.

Use the following exercise routine, inspired by RGIII’s workout, to develop your own game-changing strength and speed. (Superset exercises are paired together for maximum results.)
