I’m a huge sports fan, and I’m always wondering what types of workouts my favorite professional athletes do to train. One sport I absolutely love is track and field, and Olympic hurdler Queen Harrison-Claye (she specializes in the 100-meter hurdles) shared a quick, high-intensity bodyweight workout that will give you a taste of what it takes to be a world-class athlete.
In the video, Harrison-Claye explains that this workout is for people limited on time and space, but don’t be fooled, you’re going to be gassed once it’s over! If you want to give it a shot, check out the full video above and the break down of exercises below.
