Chest, back, shoulders, triceps and biceps in 30 minutes with dumbbells, in an EMOM format of three groups of three exercises.
This EMOM-style session (every minute on the minute) sets a rep target for each exercise, and whatever time is left in that minute becomes your rest. Three groups of three exercises work the chest, back, shoulders, triceps and biceps, and an on-screen guide helps you modify the workout. The video runs about 38 minutes in total.

Equipment setup
Who Is It For?
Lifters with a few dumbbells who enjoy structured, timed strength work and want to increase their weights over time.
Who Is It Not For?
Not ideal without dumbbells or if you want a relaxed pace: in EMOM, your rest depends on how fast you finish the reps.
Key Benefits
Strengthens the chest, back, shoulders, triceps and biceps with a timed format that builds in rest and encourages progressive loading.
Things to Keep in Mind
Pick dumbbells that challenge you but still allow good form, and go lighter if your shoulders or wrists feel strained.
