What are the goals of this program? * Increase overall lean muscle mass
* Improve overall strength
* Build core strength
* Establish workout consistency
* Improve confidence in the gym!
What do I need to participate? * You need a pair of dumbbells that will challenge you on the last 2 reps of each set
* The dumbbells should be light enough for upper body work
* For optimal progression, a range of dumbbells is ideal - I like adjustable dumbbells
Who are these workouts for (skill-level)? * The workouts are beginner friendly - the videos show you exactly what to do, and there are written instructions too!
* They are also appropriate for more experienced gym goers - just use heavier weights!
* There are 3 x 45 min workouts a week
* I suggest also moving daily eg a couple of 15 min walks during the day
* Incorporate rest days - at least 2 per week

I want to see your progress!
I would also love to see your progress pictures and videos. Tag me on Instagram and use the hashtag [INSERT HASHTAG HERE] or feel free to shoot me a DM on IG. I would love to showcase your progress to our community.
What if I can only do 2 x workouts a week? * Focus on the upper body + the lower boy workout - the 3rd full body workout is then a bonus!
* Make the most of the workout with focus on form & intensity
What if I only have 30 mins to commit to each workout? * Do 1 less set of each exercise ie 2 sets instead of 3
I don't like cardio - do I have to do the conditioning pieces? * Conditioning is important for heart health (the heart is a muscle too!)
* You can do anything for 8-10 mins - and some pieces are only 6 mins!
* These are not like the cardio you think you know - no long runs, or bike rides - these are varied, fun exercises that get your heart working
