35 Minute Upper Body Drop Set Workout | Dumbbells Only | At-Home Arm Day | Delt Focused |
![]() |
Grab a mat and dumbbells for this 35 minute upper body at home drop-set strength workout. We hit the entire upper body. There is a special focus on the delts today especially towards the end : ) For resistance reference, I have a pair of 20lb, 10lb, and 5lb DBs. Exercises are grouped together in a superset. We will perform one exercise with a challenging DB selection for 60 seconds (think of using a weight close to your 15-20 rep max here). After that exercise, we will drop our weight selection in half and continue the same exercise. We may change up the tempo, range of motion, or exercise slightly. Once we drop our weight to something lighter, our muscles will already be pretty fatigued by this point. When needed, rest, take a few deep breaths, and then continue the exercise. Repeat that method until time. The recovery and transition time between each superset is only 15 seconds long, so if needed, take a longer break. We end with delt super burner. This is a very very high volume metabolic workout, it should feel quite challenging by the end : ) The first four exercises are bodyweight only. The first two exercises are our warm-up.
