    Because the weight loss claim is bogus. I am not looking to increase my endurance. I am not looking to tire myself out when i could be doing more effective exercise. etc. I can go on...

    I was more-so asking why this is special and needs to be tried.

    I like how they mention nothing about calorie intake. As if you magically lose weight through exercise alone.

    Is this the routine you follow? If so, glad that it works for you, but I refuse to do crunches, planks are more effective but it takes more than ONE. Also, I prefer much more volume for my squats and lunges while holding heavy weights.

    I mean, this routine would suffice if I was traveling and stuck in a hotel room with no gym. For one day. Body weight exercises can be effective but this is certainly not a long-term plan. Nor can it promise ANY lost pounds.

    Sorry, OP. Just saying this looks like one of those Pintrest workouts.

    Because it makes your cap slide forward?

    More seriously I have an aversion to ridiculous tag lines of "drop 10lbs in just 2 weeks". That just destroys any credibility that a workout might have.

    Ok ok ok. This is not the workout that I do I have done it but not the one I do.

    Well, I'd omit the 100 crunches and it would be a good warm-up anyway!

    Not really...I see this as a warm up. Or morning calisthenics at summer camp.

    To lose 10 pounds in 2 weeks you'd have to be at a daily caloric deficit of 2500 calories. That's literally starving yourself to the point of an eating disorder. No thanks. I'm happy with my 1lb a week for 12 weeks while not ended up in the hospital. I do my standard strength and hypertrophy lifting with zero cardio and still lose weight eating at 2600 calories a day. So I'm more than happy with my current system.
