This weekend offers plenty of quality football games to watch. Examples: Michigan battles Nebraska in Big Ten action, and the Pac 10 features USC against Oregon.
If you want to have a prayer of joining any of those elite programs on a future Saturday, you need to jump off the sofa and squeeze in a weekend workout.
Don’t feel like visiting the gym on one of the best football Saturdays of the year? Why not get the best of both worlds by watching football and working out at the same time? The time-efficient workout below provides high-intensity training that you can perform right in your living room.
Do all the exercises in a circuit fashion.
