Caroline Girvan - Day 42 of EPIC _ Dumbbell CAPPED Shoulders Core Strengthening Workout

Let’s build the shoulders and tighten our core with this dumbbell and bodyweight workout! It’s all about control lifting and lowering throughout this entire core, abs and shoulder workout! During the shoulder exercises, try to relax! Breathe and try to keep those shoulders down. Focus on full range of movement, trying to match pace lowering and lifting of weights (difficult to do but you try to!), whilst ensuring knees soft and core tight. During the planks, ensure your shoulder blades are not too far apart or too close together. Your legs should be very tight (squeeze your quads and glutes) and look straight down! And again, breathe! You will need a mat and pair of dumbbells. I’m using 12.5kg each and 6kg each, however you can simply use one pair of dumbbells! A chair is optional, I use a chair for seated shoulder press, Arnold press and decline planks however the presses can be performed standing and planks on mat! The timer will be on for 45 seconds of work focusing on the delts , straight into a core specific exercise (that also applies work to the shoulders) for 45 seconds followed by 30 seconds rest. We repeat each superset twice!
