22 Minute Hard Corps Review
Get “bootcamp fit” in just 22 mins a day with this army passionate exercise! Tony Horton has assembled this 8-week program that will certainly leave you in perhaps the best form of your life. This fast, yet efficient, practical exercise requires you to step up and devote, but when you do you’ll attain legendary results.
This workout consists of 8 routines, alternating between full body cardio and resistance workouts. Once a day, 6 days a week, and only 22 minutes. For each workout, you will complete 3 rounds of the given exercises. Many of the workouts consist of basic movements such as push-ups, squats, pull-ups, etc. Unable to do the exercise? Not a problem. Each exercise has a less difficult modification that works the same muscles.
I was lucky enough to participate in the *Official 22 Minute Hard Corps Test Group* and it was SUCH an incredible experience!
