Description: W2/D5 Shoulders

*All exercises can be substituted for a cable/band*

- Around the world: focus on warming up the shoulders
- Standing DB shoulder press
- Alternating DB lateral raises
Tips: Chest up, shoulders rolled back. Focus on initiating the movement with your deltoids. Choose the position of arms depending on where you feel it the most. Only use momentum to get the reps up towards the last 1-3 reps reaching failure.
-  Bent-over rear delt raises (using a chair or end of a couch)
-  DB alternating frontal raises
-  DB upright rows

-Starting with a dumbbell or kettlebell in each hand (palms facing out), slowly raise the weights to your sides as if you are performing a side lateral raise. 
-Without stopping the motion, raise the weight in a large arc overhead. So your palms end up facing forward. 
-Pause for a brief second and then slowly return the weights to your sides by reversing the motion.

W1/D3 Legs ( hamstring focused )

Little more difficult than what I anticipated 💪

I like how this was dumbbells only but didn’t give me as good of a workout

I’m enjoying the minimal equipment workouts with more weight! But wondering what you would recommend for pacing of the sets? Like rest time between each set?
