Caroline Girvan - 1 HOUR FULL BODY WORKOUT with Dumbbells - Strength & Cardio | Circuit Series Day 4
Ready to put the work in? 60 minutes of strength and endurance, with emphasis on thinking about alignment of your entire body with each movement whilst heart rate is elevated with some cardio full body movements! This full body workout will challenge you in many ways! Below are some points to think about when performing these movements! Wide to Narrow push ups Aim chest to floor, not the head! It is easily done without realising sometimes but keep neck steady, looking straight between hands and core & lower body braced! Rows Best to begin in a standing position. Literally stick the chest out, retract shoulders, push hips back to lower into position. Your back should remain steady! Ensure you move through full range of movement! Shoulder press Keep knees ‘soft’ rather than bent. Keep elbows slightly in front of being in line with shoulders. Romanian Deadlifts During any of the RDLs in this session, take your time! Manipulate your position to feel deeper stretch in hamstrings by slowing it down, pushing chest out even more, ‘slight’ bent at knee, dumbbell close to body throughout! I like to pause for a second to really allow muscles to lengthen. The timer will be on for 40 seconds of work, 10 seconds rest. We have 1 minute rest between 3 complete rounds of each circuit! For this full body workout, you will need a pair of dumbbells, your mat and a chair for dips, decline push ups and Bulgarian lunges! The dumbbells I am using for your reference are 10kg! X3!!! WIDE TO NARROW PUSH UPS BENT OVER ROW SUPINE ROW 1 1/2 REP BULGARIAN LUNGE SWITCH SIDE! DB SPRAWL DECLINE PUSH UPS SHOULDER PRESS DIAGONAL PRESS 1 1/2 REP SQUAT SQUAT TO PRESS (one side) SWITCH SIDE! 1 1/2 PUSH UP RDL TO SQUAT STAGGERED RDL TO STAGGERED SQUAT SWITCH SIDE!
