It was the Tall Ships Festival in Toronto this past weekend, and the ships just happened to be parked at the docks outside my condo! So today I'm taking you to the docks for a workout with a view of these magnificent vessels. We are doing a 20-minute HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) workout. Save time by doing this at home (or outside) because you only need a set of dumbbells and a jump rope!

  3. Shock-absorbing surface, such as interlocking floor mats.
  4. Dumbbells: I used 15 pound dumbbells
