I recently read an article that mentioned recent studies showing you can get a decent workout by doing one set (10-12 reps to exhaustion). What time I have to exercise, I'd rather be in the water, but I can easily spare 5 minutes on my way out the door to hit some of the muscle groups in the weight room. Any one have suggestions for super fast workouts? Thanks.

I know one that takes 20 minutes and gets great results in strength. Special Ops use it.
pick 7 exercises:
Flat bench
incline bench
decline bench
military press
Lat pull down
tricep pul downs
curls
Do as many reps in 2 minutes as possible then move on as fast as possible to the next exercise. You have to do a minimum of 20 reps per. If you exceed 40, add weight. During the two minutes, you can take as many breaks as you need to catch your breathe.
