Bret Contreras Banded Booty Burnout Circuit!

3 sets
12 reps
controlled tempo - keep these strict! 
60s rest

- Start with your arms at 90 degrees
- Press the dumbbells straight up
- Lower with a slow, controlled motion

Dumbbell Standing Shoulder Press

A "superset" is an exercise sequence where you do the prescribed exercises one after another. 

In this superset, you will do:

A - Half-Kneeling Single Arm Shoulder Press
12 reps on each side = 24 total
controlled tempo
No rest, go directly onto B

B - Partial Dumbbell Lateral Raises - Bottom 
20 reps
controlled tempo, no jerking of the body
60s rest, then got back to A

Repeat this superset 3 times.

- On one knee, the other leg bent at 90 degrees in front of your body
- Hold the dumbbell at the shoulder on the same side as the grounded knee
- Press weight straight overhead

Half Kneeling Single Arm Dumbbell Shoulder Press

Dumbbell Partial Lateral Raise begins in a tall standing position, with feet set about hip-width apart, arms extended by your sides, hands holding onto dumbbells, palms facing in towards the body. 

To initiate the movement, bring a slight bend into the elbows, and laterally draw the dumbbells up and out wide, stopping before reaching about a 45-degree angle in the arms to the ground from the shoulder, then lower back down to the starting position.

Great! Curious as to why there are no designated core exercises this block-are we meant to add in our own? Thank you!

I love how strong I am becoming.  When I go to the grocery store and when I buy too much and I only took a basket and I’m able to lift the basket off the ground and carry the basket without being winded or my arms and back getting sore,I know I’m getting stronger.
