Grab a mat, dumbbells, and a chair (or bench) for this 45 minute upper body push and core strength workout. For reference, I have sets of 5, 10, and 20lb DBs. We will perform three exercises at a time for three rounds. The first round will be 60 seconds each, the second round will be 45 seconds each, and the third round will be 30 seconds each. There will be a 15 second recovery in-between rounds. Be sure to listen for the ding and watch the upper left hand corner for the upcoming exercise since there is no transition time between some of the exercises. There are six blocks today or 6 total tri-sets. The current block will be listed in the bottom right hand corner with the weight selection I'm using. You and I are different though, so find a weight selection that challenges you (but also something you can keep great technical form with). Since every exercise is timed, you and I do not have to go at the same speed. Make quality reps! Quality over quantity. If you max out before time is up, rest, take three deep breaths then continue reps OR drop the weight to something lighter and continue : ) Let me know how it goes in the comments below!
