“Jump squats are the heart of the workout,” Vellner says.
“The push-ups will work your upper body, the rotations will get your heart rate up a little bit, and the squats will really get your legs burning and keep your heart rate elevated for the rest of the work period.
“It’s a great workout, it doesn’t require any equipment… Grab a buddy, challenge them, see who can do the most squat jumps in those five rounds.”
