Just over 20 minutes. Back. Shoulders. Chest. Arms- all worked but in a very slow and controlled format. This is a PERFECT upper body session to save for those days when you just want to work hard for that shorter duration! All you will need for this upper body workout is some dumbbells and your mat! The dumbbells I am using for your reference are 15kg! However I reduce to 9kg each for the SHOULDER PRESS & ARNOLD PRESS! The timer will be on for 40 seconds of work, 20 seconds rest for most of the exercises within the circuit, however the PULLOVER will be performed for 1 minute duration and 10 seconds rest before the next exercise, being the SHOULDER PRESS! We perform this circuit 3 times then we have the finisher! BENT OVER ROW CHEST PRESS PULLOVER -1 MINUTE SHOULDER PRESS PUSH UPS ARNOLD PRESS FINISHER! 40/20/40 DEADSTOP PUSH UPS! DIAGONAL DIAMOND PRESS DEADSTOP PUSH UPS! ---- You will notice there are no arm specific exercises however these are compound movements so the biceps and triceps are involved during the back, shoulder and chest exercises. If you have been training with me for awhile, you will have noticed I don-t train arms that often as you may think. Infact I have gained strength and muscle in triceps and biceps mostly from rows, presses and push up variations! 20 minutes. Upper body. Done!

Absolutely loving the circuits! Forgot how much I love this format-I know what-s coming with each circuit and I can increase my weight and really focus on my form-thank you Caroline! And I really appreciate your attention to detail and thoughtfulness that you put into each video-from your color coordinated outfits with the beautiful flowers, to the format and detailed instructions. Thank you! --

Great weighted workout! This is the best training, especially for my age! It's so much easier LOOKING FIT in your early years, than over 50! Everything shifts! Your workouts increase my body strength and make me feel better. Likely no one will see me rocking a midriff but my core is strong, and my knees and back are feeling great!

I-m currently on a 2 workout a day challenge and I have been doing your workouts 2x a day. I feel fitter, leaner and everyone is complementing me on my tone. I love that I can just follow along and within a blink of an eye the workout is done and I am sweating and my muscles are burning! Sending love from Australia girly!

I absolutely love these shorter partial body segment workouts. You are a true blessing, Caroline.
I do have one question, which I hope is not a dumb one. Is it possible to see results doing sessions like the above multi times/week VS the longer 45-60 minutes sessions?

Thank you Caroline. These videos are perfect for me. I work full time and I have a child that requires extra attention. Plus preparing meals etc. I usually don't find the time to take care of myself. This workouts are perfect for me. Thank you thank you thank you

Pretty intense - especially with upping the weights a bit. I really enjoyed the flow of this one - very effective and it was easy to transition to the next movement.
Thanks, Caroline!

Girvan I really like your workout! I hope it could be less repetitive and have equal strong effects. And the music could be more lively: ) Love your trainings.

Fantastic workout if youre in a hurry! But why only one exercise for your back and three for the chest? And no abs at all? Arent they part of the upper body?

I really enjoyed that circuit. I did have to lighten my weights a little by the end but I'll get there. Thanks Caroline!
