Build a bigger upper body with This Intense Back and Shoulder Workout

Today’s…

workout of the day, we are going to be doing a High Intensity Back and Shoulder Workout. This workout should be done at the gym.

Cardio Round 1…

For today’s cardio, we are going to do an interval run on the treadmill which will progressively get harder. We will do this interval for a total of 3 times. This is a great way to get your heart rate up and the blood flowing. 

Circuit…

Todays workout is going to be broken out into 2 circuits. The first one will be a 4 round 4 exercise circuit. Then we will take a 5 minute cardio break. During this cardio break, hit the stairmaster. If your gym doesn’t have a stairmaster, then feel free to do any exercise you want. This is to help keep the blood flowing and the heart rate up throughout the workout. Then we will have another 4 round 4 exercise circuit to finish up the weights portion of this workout. 
 

Abs…

For abs we are going to do 4 different exercise for a total of 4 sets. This should get your core burning! 

Stretch

To end the workout, stretch out those muscles to prevent soreness and injury. Recovery is the most important part after working out, so make sure to take care of your body and it will take care of you. Stretch it out for a total of 10 – 15 minutes depending on how much time you have.
