The back, biceps and core will be targeted in this workout with dumbbells and bodyweight with unilateral exercises and compound movement for the back, lots of curls for the biceps and core strengthening and stability exercises! Slow and controlled is the aim of the game today!

For this muscle building session, you will need a pair of dumbbells and your mat! A yoga block is optional to place hand on during single arm renegade rows as it provides height therefore greater range of movement for the row, it also is a great option instead of placing hand on other dumbbell for that height.

Another option is to perform the single arm rows with non working side hand on a stable chair as sometimes this can be more comfortable. In this workout I simply place my opposite hand or elbow on that same side thigh but you can definitely place hand on something if this helps keep your back more inline.

The dumbbells I am using for your reference is one dumbbell weighing 17.5kg for the back exercises and 2 dumbbells 8kg each for the biceps.

The timer will be on for most of the workout 50 seconds of work, 10 seconds rest! However once we reach the biceps portion, the timer will be 40 seconds of work with 20 seconds rest as we will need it!!

With the finisher, you can use that bit of momentum to help get those dumbbells up! But only cheating on the way up; control the lowering portion as always!

This burn out on the biceps was perfect to finish on! To failure indeed!!🔥😁
