Just because time may not be on your side lately doesn't mean your training needs to fall to the wayside. This workout will see you in and out the gym in just 30 minutes, working every muscle from your glutes to your shoulders, arms and core. Can't get to the gym? No worries, it can easily be done from home too, all you'll need is a pair of dumbbells.
Not only are full-body workouts time efficient and great for your cardiovascular health (compound movements work multiple muscles raising your heart rate), but they're highly effective when it comes to building strength and muscle. A study published by Frontiers in Physiology found that multi-joint movements and single-joint movements are "equally efficient in improving body composition". But, unlike single-joint movements, multi-joint movements also provide greater results when it comes to physical performance, such as strength and aerobic capacity.
