This 12 minute workout goes through 2 rounds of 6 exercises. The 3rd and 6th ones are abs targeted exercises and spaced out to give some recovery (while working abs) between the action ones. I really liked the flow of this workout – time went fast and I felt the effects of it after. 

3 of the exercises use a sandbag. I love my sandbag, but if you don’t have one just alternate for another weighted item, use your imagination, or do the exercises with bodyweight, for example: do burpees or another burpee variation instead of the clean & press sandbag burpees and another variation of squats for the around the world squats. My sandbag weighs 18 lbs.
