Who Is It For?
Exercisers with a mat and heavier dumbbells who want a long, structured upper body session.
Who Is It Not For?
Not ideal without dumbbells or if your shoulders or wrists are sore, since presses, push-ups and planks load them.
Key Benefits
Builds shoulder, chest, back and arm strength with higher reps and heavier weights, while burpees and shadow boxing keep your heart rate up.
Things to Keep in Mind
Pick weights that keep your form clean through about 12 reps, and protect your shoulders and wrists during push-ups and plank rows.
