Men love shortcuts. If there's a way to accomplish a job quicker and more efficiently, they're all for it. That goes for work and working out. Now, new research shows that as little as 15 minutes of resistance training is just as effective in spiking a man's metabolism - his fat-burning furnace - as a workout lasting more than twice as long. All it takes is 15 minutes to achieve lifelong results - and men are more likely to stick to an exercise plan if it's chopped down to those 15 minutes. "The Men's Health Big Book of 15-Minute Workouts" contains fast-paced circuit training and interval workouts that boost calorie burn, build muscle, and fry belly fat in half the time of regular workouts. Readers can choose from at-home, body-weight-only workouts and total-body barbell programs to exercises that target major muscle groups - the chest, arms, legs, and back - and sport-specific workouts. Other highlights of this title include: a special section of 15-minute core workouts to build a rock-hard six-pack; an eating plan with delicious meals that take 15 minutes or less to prepare; workouts for the office or when you're travelling and can't make it to the gym; and, hundreds of tips from America's best trainers, nutritionists, and exercise scientists.

I totally agree with the philosophy of this book and have found short, intense workouts to be MUCH more effective in building muscle and burning fat than long, drawn-out gym sessions. (The saved time is quite a plus too.)
This book gives some great circuit routines that will get your heart pumping and your muscles working. There are gym-free total body workouts, which also are great cardio; dumbbell workouts for your upper and lower body; barbell workouts meant to build maximum muscle mass; ab workouts; cardio routines; and more.
I've already tried several of the workout and was surprised at how challenging they were! This book doesn't disappoint!
P.S. I also highly recommend Muscle Myths: 50 Health & Fitness Mistakes You Don't Know You're Making (The Lean Muscle Series) because it straightened out a bunch of confusions I had about how to build muscle, lose fat, and be healthy. I was making quite a few mistakes and didn't even know it!

This book is my personal favourite workout book as it gets results quickly and has so much variation and is packed with information. I'll just warn you that the workouts are pretty gruesome but they do work in building muscle and burning fat which many routines don't really do both!
A must buy for anyone who wants to get in peak, chiseled shape!!
