Caroline Girvan's IRON Series finale: 30 minutes of arms, abs and core with dumbbells, a mat and a chair for dips.
The last session of Caroline Girvan's IRON Series, and her favourite of the run, mixes dumbbells with bodyweight work and focuses on strict, full-range movements, from curls to triceps dips, skullcrushers and presses. She cues the mind-to-muscle connection and a soft straightening of the arms to avoid jolting. The video runs about 39 minutes.

Equipment setup
Who Is It For?
Lifters with a few dumbbells, a mat and a chair who want a focused arm session with strict form and some core work.
Who Is It Not For?
Not ideal without dumbbells or if you have elbow, shoulder or wrist pain, since curls, dips and skullcrushers load those joints.
Key Benefits
Strengthens the biceps, triceps and core with strict, full-range reps that build control and a stronger mind-to-muscle connection.
Things to Keep in Mind
Keep your elbows steady, avoid snapping your arms straight at the top of each rep and go lighter or skip the dips if your elbows complain.
