He starts his workout with jump squats and after having done 20 repetitions, he moves on to lunge jumps. He finishes off the circuit with wall sits and also includes exercises such as tire flips and pushups in the workout session.
At the end of the workout, Alex gets Melton to work on his core. They usually perform one exercise for 30 seconds and follow it up with 15 seconds rest. They start the core session with single-leg suitcases and follow it with leg crunch. If he has some energy left, he indulges in some boxing.
