Dumbbell strength for the back and biceps in 15 minutes, with a modification for lower back pain or trouble engaging the core.

Juice & Toya's split-routine session builds the back and biceps with dumbbells. They recommend starting really light and adding weight as the sets repeat, and since there is quite a bit of hinging, an alternative is shown for lower back pain or trouble engaging the core. It pairs with their chest and shoulder workout for a 30-minute upper body session.

Who Is It For?

Anyone with dumbbells who likes split routines and wants a focused back and biceps session, with modifications available.

Who Is It Not For?

Not ideal without dumbbells or if you want a full-body session: this one focuses only on the back and biceps.

Key Benefits

Strengthens the back and biceps with dumbbell moves, letting you progress the weight across sets and offering a lower back-friendly option.

Things to Keep in Mind

Start light, hinge from the hips with a braced core and use the modification if your lower back hurts; see a physio if pain persists.
