3 x 3 Workout

Doug explains, this is a workout I learned years ago from a coach at Princeton University, called the 3×3.  This Routine involves 3 exercises performed in a high intensity fashion and repeated for 3 sets with little rest.  If done correctly with a high level of focus and effort this workout is extremely demanding and productive.  Give it a try.
