Don't have time for hours and hours in the gym every day? Perfect! Nia Shanks has designed this workout plan to cut out the excess and make sure you're getting the most out of your workout time.

It may look pretty simple, but there is still plenty of volume here. These are highly-focused workouts so you better be on top of your game!

Focus on the Essentials

The pillars of this workout plan are the squat and deadlift days - 2 huge movements that do a body good. It doesn't have to be complicated to get serious results. Those days are coupled with a superset and a few farmer's walks to hit the rest of the body.

Accessory day is far from a day off, though, and it could even be the toughest day, depending how you want to push yourself. Stick with this routine for a while and see what a little focus can do for you!

    Great plan! A nice dose of the barbells staples without any fluff. The weighted carries were a welcome change of pace to my training.
