Forget gym machines – you only need a barbell and this five-move workout to burn fat and boost strength

When your training time is limited, the last thing you want is to be faffing around setting up lots of different bits of kit, or waiting for someone to get off the leg press machine. Enter this five-move barbell workout from Mirafit. It’ll blast all the major muscle groups in your body, leaving you with a crazy pump and, thanks to the fact that you’ll only require one piece of kit, you’ll be in and out of the gym in no time.

According to MiraFit: “This high-intensity barbell workout combines strength and cardio into one powerful session, so you can build strength and increase those cardiovascular fitness levels at the same time.” That’s because it uses big compound movements – think squats, rows and thrusters – which don’t just tax lots of muscles simultaneously, but spike your heart rate too and burn lots of calories.
