Non-stop - Day 1

Joyce Vedral

Categories: Upper Body Strength


This video contains 3 giant sets of upper body work with no rest breaks. For each set, the weights go heavier, and the reps decrease (modified pyramid - 12, 10, 8)

Each set includes:

simultaneous bicep curls
simultaneous kickbacks
overhead reverse laterals
peewee laterals
bent over laterals
one arm tricep extensions
concentration curl
alternating bicep curl
alternating hammer curl
pushups
alternating shoulder press (military)
side lateral
front raise
chest press
chest flye
headbangers
cross face extensions
closegrip bench press
seated straight toe calves
seated angled out calves
seated angled in calves

The entire workout is about 24 minutes long!!! It elevated my heart rate, and my arms were burning.

I had to lower my weight for some of the shoulder work, so for all 3 sets, I used 3's for some exercises. I'm very intent on listening to my shoulders, as I don't want to be sidelined by a rotator cuff injury.

I give this routine a big thumbs up. Her rep speed is maybe 1 rep per second, but she goes a tad slower with the shoulder work.
