Bobby Maximus' 10-Minute Bodyweight Workout Might Be More Than You Can Handle
While the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has halted the cadence of everyday life for just about everyone, the world is now beginning to adjust. We're all handling the challenges of social distancing and self-isolation differently—but that doesn't mean that we have to go it completely alone in every sense.
At Men's Health, we're using this period as an opportunity to build up our community and share as much useful, positive information as possible. For everyone stuck missing their typical workout routines with gyms and fitness centers closed down, we've done our best to provide as many at-home workout options as possible. But that's just the start. We're also hosting live workout sessions on Instagram with some of our favorite trainers to fill the fitness class-shaped void in your daily routine.
Bobby Maximus, former UFC fighter, fitness personality, and author of the Men's Health Maximus Body book, hosted the latest session. Maximus makes a point to train without equipment even when he has a fully-stocked gym at his disposal—so creating an accessible session for guys stuck at home without access to gear fits perfectly to his training style.
Today's session is formatted like a typical Maximus workout, but it's even quicker-hitting than usual. You only need 10 minutes to complete the routine. That said, you'll work harder in these 10 minutes than you probably have at any other point in your week.
The workout uses the EMOM protocol, which means that you'll perform a prescribed number of reps for every minute during a fixed period of time. In this case, you'll be tasked to complete 12 reps of two exercises, each minute, for 10 total minutes. Once you're done, you'll have finished 240 reps—if you can fit them all in before the timer dings for the next round. And that's a big if.
