You don't need fancy equipment or to spend hours at the gym working out to get results.

When you're short on time, all you need is your own bodyweight and 10 minutes.

In that time you can get in a killer workout to strengthen your ENTIRE core - everything down your frontside AND your backside.

And while this workout is called the Backside Burner it targets more than just your back, hamstrings and butt. It will also work your abs, serratus anterior, obliques, quads and shoulders!
