The 2012 Spartacus Workout is from Men's Health.

Disclaimer: You might puke your brains out the first time you try it.

Okay, so if you're looking to lean out, gain muscle, or get as fit as a Spartan, this is an awesome circuit training workout for just that. It's pretty intense so be warned!

All you need is a pair of dumbbells, making it a great home workout. I'd recommend picking a weight that you can do at least 15 reps of Shoulder Presses with. So if that's 25lbs, then stick with a pair of 25lb dumbbells for now...

There are 10 exercises total. You'll be doing 40 seconds of high intensity and 20 seconds rest for each exercise. After each round you get 2 minutes of rest. It's up to you how many rounds you want to do. 3-4 rounds, 3 times a week is most effective.

Please consult a doctor first before trying out any new workout programs.

Thanks everyone for supporting this app and sending me helpful comments. Just letting you know that I'm reading them all. Below is a response to some concerns.

Help:
Q. How do I restart the circuit for Android 2.x?
A. Click the menu button and click "Restart Circuit". For Android 3.0+ this is in plain view.

Q. How come there is no autorestart?
A. Ran out of time, but the next update will have this.

Q. Can you improve the instructions?
A. Yes, I will do this for the next update.

Q. Does this work on tablets?
A. Yes, but the images are not scaled... next update will fix this.

Good workout great app

X70%
by X####:

It's a pretty difficult workout. Wish I could go back to a move, can only pause. Also would be helpful if moves that work one side then the other could be broken up into two moves...20 seconds, then another 20, etc.

Program covers all the exercises but doesn't automatically restart the circuit when its over. Poor explanation of exercises that leave you wondering if you might be doing them wrong and potentially injuring yourself. The first Spartacus workout is a better workout and a better app. This one doesn't have enough upper body moves and the ones it does have are mixed with lower body so you cannot prescribe mixed weights for different parts of your body.

The app is good. I just wanted to point out that the intent is to do gladiator exercises not spartan. Spartacus was not a spartan.

As soon as I finish the first circuit and waiting to start the second, freezes up every single time between 10-0 seconds.

Could not view exercises 1st so could not get equipment ready. Froze during session and needed a restart. Skipped last exercise giving me 9 not the stated 10

The sound volume has a mind of its own! But the workouts are tough and help with both fat burning and muscle definition. I recommend using it three times a week

One thing: at the end of the workout, during the countdown, it froze at 6. Please fix!

A70%
by A####:

Really high intensity workout that burns your muscles like crazy. As a man who hates gyms, this is a life saver after mytrademill brokedown and I will continue to use it even after fixing it. I just wish the developer adds more exercises to make more variable.

M70%
by M####:

I think it needs better tablet support. Pictures are the same size on my tablet as they are on my phone. Also, it would be nice to be able to scroll through the exercise and read about the ahead of time instead of waiting for the timer to end.

I hurt so bad the first day after this workout,now its so much easier :) And I have the body of a goddess,thanks so much for this app!!!

Love it. You can even use it without weights and still gives a good burn.

by M####:

Please add a skip because sometimes I accidently push exit because I have to put the phone in my pocket and I have my headphones on while working out... if I exit, I can't go back to where I left off,.. PALEOCODER PLZ ADD A SKIP... AWESOME WORKOUTS THO

M70%
by M####:

I get no sound. Is there supposed to be? Very difficult to do the workout and have to watch my phone for start and stop times.

This app is awesome, just did the workout and its hard to walk around. :)

L70%
by L####:

As soon as you start the app you are in a count down. If you pause the count down it blurs the picture of the guy demonstrating the exercise. The help button is very helpful though so that is a plus. Their should also be something letting you know the next exercise perhaps. Pressing the help button should automatically pause the timer so you can figure the exercise out.

M70%
by M####:

Great set of exercises. But there needs to be a menu and the circuit should be restarted automatically or the option should be provided after completion of one round.

M70%
by M####:

Simple, easy to use, and gets the job done

P70%
by P####:

Im not the fittest person in the world by all meens but I struggled with that, going to stick at it though and hope it becomes easier each day and results show :)
