20 minutes may seem a short duration for a workout but when you combine slow and controlled movements with great technique and continuous thinking as you lift and lower with compound movements and structured rest you can accomplish a lot in those 20 minutes! We can look forward to hitting those arms towards the end! For this upper body workout you will need some dumbbells, a mat and a chair of bodyweight dips! The dumbbells I am using for your reference are 17. 5kg each however I use 2 x 6kg each for the shoulders and biceps! X3 40/20 CHEST PRESS 40/40/40/40/40/40 SINGLE ARM ROW SWITCH SIDE! SWITCH SIDE! SWITCH SIDE! SWITCH SIDE! SWITCH SIDE! 40/40/40 then 20 rest X3 REAR DELT FLYES DIAGONAL RAISES SHOULDER PRESS X3 40/20 DIPS X1 40/20/40 HAMMER CURL HOLD HAMMER CURL X1 40/20/40 PALMS UP CURL HOLD! PALMS UP CURL FINISHER! 20/20/20/20 ALTERNATING LATERAL RAISES PARTIALS! ALTERNATING LATERAL RAISES PARTIALS! I have called this workout -HARD- as that was exactly my thought throughout many of these exercises- it was hard to ensure I was controlling the dumbbell during the lowering portion! You will see what I mean when you come to the back, shoulder and bicep portion! Take your time, breathe and feel your strength and ability to control with each rep!

I love those short workouts! I have recently become father of a second child. A newborn together with a two year old is a lovely combination, but it also leaves you with little time for working out. This is why I do those workouts a lot, currently, because it is as much as you can get in 20 mins. Happy to have sore muscles the day after.
I was wondering if you have ever considered making a new series of short 20' workouts. Maybe with less focus on individual muscle groups since it is always hard to work out each and every day. But with a focus on full body workouts. They should be insanely hard to get the most out of a workout. The parenting workout series -

Great workout, you-re providing us with an amazing content when we can-t go to the gym. Much appreciated. There-s just one thing that-s been bothering me. What-s with the makeup? No offence, but makeup is the last thing on my mind before I start exercising. Sending the wrong message to young people that you need to put on your -face- before starting workout or going to the gym. Again please don-t take it the wrong way. You-re doing fabulous job-

I really appreciate that you do these exercises in real time along with us. It-s really motivating to see that sometimes these exercises are hard for the trainers as well and it shows me that it-s not weak to stop and take a breath. It-s the opposite, it shows determination and the strength to keep going. Great workout! I really appreciate you!

My first Caroline workout after a nasty cycling accident in which I broke my femur +. Thank you for your energy and quality workouts, so glad to add your workouts as part of my recovery process.

You are so strong, Caroline. I'm just doing 8-lb weights. Thank you for offering these shorter workouts! I just came from being sick for two weeks during the holidays. So these are great!

These workouts are GREAT! She really helps me to focus on form and slowing down. I-m so glad I found her! She is better than any personal trainer you could pay for at the gym.

This is my favourite upper body workout ever, it tackles every area and the fact that its shorter benefits me greatly because I can fit it in before work. Thank you CG!

I got to be honest, in this specific video I found it hard to work out because of the music. It was so epic that I wanted to just dance! XD
