Sweaty Saturday - slightly more conditioning than the usual workouts

We did this workout in my class last Saturday. The beauty of this workout is, it's designed to where you can still use relatively heavier weights due to the time interval being only 20 seconds per exercise. Give this workout a try and let me know what you think.

Set your timer for 20 seconds.
Go through the following exercise and only break 20 seconds when you need to transition to the next exercise for both sequences.
Sequence #1

SWING
FLOOR PRESS (less strong side)

Sequence #2
