Dreadnought is a full-body workout named for the warships that made every other vessel obsolete overnight - all big guns, no wasted deck space. The structure matches the name: two blocks of ten reverse lunges and a plank artillery section of push-up shoulder taps and plank rotations, with tap side lunges and bicep extensions completing the armament.

The workout fires in two broadsides. The first is legs: reverse lunges bracket a block of tap side lunges, so your glutes and quads work front-to-back, then laterally - the tap side lunges dropping you low and reaching across for the floor - then front-to-back again before the section ends. The second is the plank battery: push-up shoulder taps fuse two exercises into one rep, a full push-up followed immediately by a tap on each shoulder, loading the chest and then demanding anti-rotation before the next descent. Plank rotations between the two tap blocks open the body sideways to keep the obliques involved. The closing bicep extensions are the signal flag run down at the end - small, standing, almost a courtesy after what came before.

Step back with control in the reverse lunges and drive up through the front heel. In the tap side lunges, push your hips back and keep the reaching movement in your hips, not your rounding back. Treat every push-up shoulder tap as two disciplines in sequence: full-depth push-up, stable tap, no rushing the seam between them.

Big guns fore and aft, armor amidships. Nothing in the harbor compares.

Make it Harder: Double the push-up shoulder taps to eight per block.

Make it Easier: Swap push-up shoulder taps with regular shoulder taps.
