STRENGTH: Total Body Short Circuit 5 – Full Body Workout in Under 15 Minutes With 1 Set of Dumbbells – jessicasmithtv

by YouTube Team

Short on time but still need to get in a great total body strength session today? Look no further than this efficient, but effective, total body circuit workout that hits every major muscle group in less than 15 minutes!

We’ll circuit through (meaning little to no rest in between moves to maximize every minute) 5 compound moves to hit a variety of muscles, with extra emphasis on the larger groups:

Move #1: Alternating Rear Lunge and Opposite Arm Curl to Press (Glutes, Biceps, Shoulders)

Move #2: Squat, Hinge and Row (Quads, Hamstrings, Back)

Move #3: Split Squat and Overhead Extension (Quads, Glutes, Triceps, Shoulders)

Move #4: Chest Press and Core Alternating Leg Drop (Chest, Abs)

Move #5: X-Pull Down and Inner Thigh Squeeze (Back, Glutes, Inner Thighs)

If you have more time, skip back Move #1 to perform one or two more circuits of the moves for a longer workout. Remember you can increase your weight if you are ready for it to increase intensity at any time (or conversely, reduce your weight or use no weight at all to make it easier on your body). Please be sure to listen to your body throughout the workout and make any additional modifications you may need as we go.

EQUIPMENT: One moderately heavy-to-you set of dumbbells, mat (one light set of dumbbells, option)

FLOOR WORK: Yes

LEVEL: All

INTENSITY: Moderate

You should add q place for donations/ gratitude on your videos ! I've seen other channels that you can join for a fee, perhaps that's a good idea for you ?

I used to be very diligent with my diet and exercise. A variety of things disrupted my habits, and I've been struggling to get back at it. These short workouts are perfect when I don't feel motivated and even 30 minutes feels daunting! Thank you, Jessica, for providing such variety. You gentle soul always lifts my spirit. 💜❤️💜❤️

This became right on time! I love having shorter workouts that pack a lot! Sometimes, you don’t have the time for 30 or more longer workouts and other times you just don’t have the energy or mental wherewithal to do something longer! So, workouts like this are great to have on hand! Love your workouts and glad to see you back…you are so calming to listen to…😃
