Upper body day in 39 minutes: unilateral chest and back circuits with heavy dumbbells and a 4-minute sprint finisher.

Day 32 of HR12WEEK 5.0 focuses on the chest and back, combining unilateral exercises, slow motion, time under tension and combo moves. After a warm-up come two circuits of 40 seconds on and 20 off, three rounds each, then a 4-minute sprint finisher and a cool-down. The video runs about 39 minutes with heavy dumbbells and a mat.

🏋️ Dumbbells🧘 Mat

Who Is It For?

Lifters with heavy dumbbells who want a challenging, structured chest and back session with a cardio-style finisher.

Who Is It Not For?

Not ideal for beginners or without heavy dumbbells, since the circuits rely on loaded presses and rows plus push-ups in the finisher.

Key Benefits

Builds chest and back strength with single-arm work and slow, controlled reps, then lifts your heart rate with a short sprint.

Things to Keep in Mind

Keep your core braced on rows and presses and choose weights you can control; ease off the sprint push-ups if your wrists or shoulders feel strained.
