SHOULDERS, CHEST & TRICEPS Workout - Dumbbells | Tempo Week Day 1

Shoulders, triceps and chest are all challenged today! A combination of compound exercises to recruit various muscles and isolation exercises to really target the triceps… all with tempo variations, encouraging muscle growth (hypertrophy)! It will require focus and control throughout!

The timer will be on for 40 seconds each exercise with 20 seconds rest inbetween! Each exercise will be performed for 3 sets!

For this upper body workout you will need a pair of dumbbells and your mat!

The dumbbells I am using for your reference are 17.5kg each and 9kg each.

CHEST PRESS (slow eccentric)

DEADSTOP CHEST PRESS

FLYES (slow eccentric)

FLYES (slow concentric)

DIAGONAL PRESS (pause at top)

Finisher

Yes! 2 minute flat out tricep burnout to finish!

I hope you feel the your strength involved within this workout, particularly your ability to control those slow movements!

Never thought that Dead Stop Chest Press could be SO TOUGH!! Gripping those dumbbells was a challenge. LOVE that you brought back that cool down song again! Thank you so much Miss Caroline for this new week of Tempo workouts. You are an inspiration! 💖💖💖

[fluttershypi]

thank you for this. i got into weight training around august of last year.. and i slowly stopped working out as i got into a toxic relationship and my mental health tanked. i also ended up getting sick and injuring my rib so i wasn't allowed to do any weight training for over a month... theeenn i moved, and then the emotionally abusive person i was with broke up with my abrubtly when things seemed to be wonderful, then ghosted me... my self esteem and motivation have been lost for months. i honestly lost myself in that relationship, as i've never felt truly confident and like myself like how i did when i was consistently weight training for 4-5 months. i hope i can get back into it, i've finally moved on, positivity has re-entered my life, and im onto more colorful and broad horizons. i know this comment is oversharing, but i really am excited to get back to my old self. i miss taking care of my body and my mind through working out. i miss the discipline and confidence. thank you for helping me bring it back.

Caroline is rewriting the encyclopedia of workout movements and routines. I have discovered so many different ways of using my body and strengthening it with you, Caroline. You are the engineer of body mechanics 🧰 and should win a Nobel prize of physiology 😘💪

I’m looking forward to today’s session, TEMPO makes the exercises just so challenging & it burns. Beautiful colour theme & a brilliant video with an amazing intro 💙 This week is going to be so much fun, let’s go!

Oh, DOMS, well... story of my life since I started working out with you Caroline, what can I say 😅 thank you for yet another week of workouts to look forward to! 🤩

What a magnificent intro.
Thank you for inviting us to work out with you every day! Your work ethic is superb and unsurpassed. I love upper body days and have no doubt this will be another favorite of mine. Love the exercises, quality, theme, color/outfit/flowers! But, I especially love that you are my no-fail and trusty work out buddy who always pushes me to do my best and finishes it off with a well done and a lovely smile.

Happy Monday all!!

Hello Caroline! I started training with you consistently since May. I have lost 5 inches off of my waist and 2 1/2 inches from my hips so far along with 10 lbs. I am a 46 y.o. female and can not thank you enough for helping me to get my body back into shape. As we get older, it certainly is not easy. We must put in that weight training work. Thank you!!🤗☺💜💙💚

[Gigirunner]

This is the perfect combo of moves. I’m shaking and burning the whole time! My arms feel so strong and defined afterward! Thank you Caroline!

[janetbalsamo]

Can't wait!!! Getting a retro vibe ...love it!!

[RachelSullivan]

The intro music is so wonderfully 80's, LOVE it.❤

[francisrivera]

Great class. I'm doing all your classes one every day. Thank you

[dickiedum]

Morning fellow Girvinators, two minutes of Triceps at the end and I was finished. What a great workout.

[michellewhelanyoga]

I seriously had a panic attack thinking what would happen if you stopped producing workouts and I couldn't find you on YouTube anymore?! You have changed my life! I haven't felt this good and this strong in a very long time! I am eternally grateful for every single workout you've created! It literally has transformed me far beyond the physical!

[marileedebruyn]

This was super tough, but I'm so proud to report that I didn't have to use my lightest dumbells for any of the movements! I may not have used my heaviset dumbells for the compounds but I'm so glad to be seeing and feeling progress in my strength!
Thanks for all your hard work, Caroline!
Much love from Sotuh Africa <3
Stay safe and strong everyone!

[lissetttovar]
