Men thank you. With you i have been able to motivate myself again. I was a crossfitter and quit due to life happenings, but now I'm trying to get back in shape and moving. God bless you.
I like using a bench to get an extra stretch on the pecs and for pullovers. Also a bit easier on lower back if you want to do a prone row. Even a few cushions can help on press and pullover to give greater range of motion though
Yup, I also went down in weight... 2x... First in the 1st section, and 2nd in the 2nd section... Love the work out, this entire routine I will definitely save for my future workouts specific to chest and upper back... Thank you!!! 💪♥️🇵🇭
Done! I was planning to do workout this evening and then I saw your row and press workout …couldn’t wait till evening. The warm up was just perfect to get the body moving in morning.
Toronto. I'm back! Compared to first comment, increased light weight by 3lbs (1.4kg) but kept heavy weight the same. slow progress but PROGRESS! Cheers!
Texas. I am tracking with you each day and am on week 4 and am really enjoying this style of working out with you in video. How does this workout compare to the workouts available for purchase on your site? I don’t feel like I have repeated a workout yet, but from looking at the description of your other plans, it seems like they all include 4 workout routines that will rotate. Will it be the same four workout routines each week with some stretching on rest days? Also, I like being able to follow along on video, but it does not seem like that is what the plans you purchase are, correct? There are links to show you how to do the workouts, but it is not a follow-along, correct?
Just updated description to include link to my TPT Studio. My E-books are more sets and reps style workouts done on your own with a volume/intensity periodisation. However, my TPT studio has a wide variety of exclusive follow along workouts not available on RUclips including a full 4 week dumbbell program called the DB45 series www.tompetotraining.com/members-area Hope that helps and you can join us in the TPT studio as it sounds like that is more the kind of thing you are looking for 👍🏼
Day 19✅The first part was crazy hard despite me using only 5lb. The planche press is a very fun exercise. Question: my whole left arm feels quite unstable probably because it's way weaker that my right one. Sometimes it hurts on heavier weights. Should I use lighter weights?
@@kitnfall no that is a reps and sets style written E-Book with video demo’s. Allows you to lift a little heavier with longer rests but no follow alongs included. I have extra Dumbbell follow alongs in my TPT Studio/members area not available on RUclips if you fancy checking those out.
@@TomPetoTraining I actually checked the 12 week series however at this very moment I don't think I can do it. The reason I love these series so much is because they're follow-along and your commentary/corrections are EXTREMELY useful for me. I am very new to strength workouts and without your corrections I would do all the exercises wrong. Every time exercise feels strange you are explaining the technique, as if you know that I'm doing it wrong lol. It's like magic. I've never enjoyed strength workouts as much because everything would hurt a lot. I also appreciate the calendar, I like that everyday focuses on a different group of muscles and helps other ones to recover. One day when I properly memorize the techniques I'll make sure to do the 12 week series! I didn't know about the membership but found it on your site. Are there extra series with the calendars by any chance? Thank you for taking your time to read and respond to my message
@@kitnfall there is a huge exclusive full barbell series on the members area with calendar. Currently just a good selection of individual longer dumbbell workouts but no dumbbell series. I’m about to add (~ 2 weeks time) a mini push pull legs dumbbell program on there consisting of 3 follow along workouts to be done on rotation. There will be a shorter version available for free on RUclips also. 👍🏼
Right, carpal tunnel seems to have chilled out, so we're back on track. That hollow planche press is *mean* ahahah. Effective though! (Also, I just realised I only ever comment on your upper body workouts... I swear I do legs, I just prefer my own routine for that because with janky ankles AND knees, YT leg workouts are a pain to follow. Yay hypermobility 💀)
I don’t put jumping into many of my workouts and tend to stick to the classic, squat, lunge, hinge movements if you fancy trying one out. Keep it up 💪🏼
Day 19 complete! This was one of the hardest videos yet! Amazing work as always, I’m looking forward to what’s next to come!
Men thank you. With you i have been able to motivate myself again. I was a crossfitter and quit due to life happenings, but now I'm trying to get back in shape and moving. God bless you.
Awesome, I think there’s a few ex CrossFitters on here enjoying the time efficient workouts but still staying functionally fit! Keep it up 💪🏼
Loved that! Never been a lover of working upper body but this series has changed that. Really worked up a sweat 😊
Awesome, yes opposing movement supersets are the way to go 👌🏼💪🏼
Oh my goodness! This was tough and I am supposed to do laundry today - my arms are not happy campers! Thank you Tom - you killed me today!
Noelle
😂👍🏼
You are truly underrated. Great one again. I don't own a bench and was wondering, how much more efficient it is to use one?
I like using a bench to get an extra stretch on the pecs and for pullovers. Also a bit easier on lower back if you want to do a prone row. Even a few cushions can help on press and pullover to give greater range of motion though
Thanks Tom, That was excellent. Have a great day and enjoy your weekend.

💪♥️🇵🇭
Awesome, glad you liked it. I love a push pull style mix 💪🏼
Fantastic upper body workout. Just what I was craving. Those W’s are tough. Loved it. Thanks, Tom!
You’re welcome 💪🏼
My favorite so far
👌🏼💪🏼
Toronto. Whew! I love that you keep it real! Many trainers don't. Didn't want to work out today but so glad I did!
Well done, yes can’t let how you feel control too much of what you do. Always feel better after, or at least glad it’s over! 💪🏼🇨🇦
Done! I was planning to do workout this evening and then I saw your row and press workout …couldn’t wait till evening. The warm up was just perfect to get the body moving in morning.
Oh great, thanks 👌🏼👍🏼
Awesome workout from Kansas! I enjoyed the upbeat playlist on this one!
Another great one for the chest! Cheers!
Another one. Thanks!
Good job 👏🏼 💪🏼
✅ smashing through these
Well done 👏🏼
This hit the spot
👌🏼💪🏼
Cheers Tom! Feeling that one. 15kg for the second section was tough! Need to work on those planches too
Planche press good to stay light when possible
Amazing workout tom,It was tough but I did it feeling stronger 💪🏻love from India 🇮🇳
Well done 👏🏼
Toronto. I'm back! Compared to first comment, increased light weight by 3lbs (1.4kg) but kept heavy weight the same. slow progress but PROGRESS! Cheers!
I used a 15lbs,35 and 40 lbs dumbbell... almost die. Really loved this one bro.
👌🏼👍🏼
I love how you don’t let your ego get in the way of reducing the weights
Yes, your muscles don’t know what number is written on the side of the dumbbell 💪🏼

Yes just use a lighter weight an more controlled tempo to increase difficulty. Try adding in some gentle rotator cuff exercises into your week
@@TomPetoTraining will do!!! I was also wondering the 12 week dumbbell course on your web-site has follow along videos as well?
@@kitnfall no that is a reps and sets style written E-Book with video demo’s. Allows you to lift a little heavier with longer rests but no follow alongs included. I have extra Dumbbell follow alongs in my TPT Studio/members area not available on RUclips if you fancy checking those out.

Thought this was going to be an easy one…yup, not so easy. Still a good workout Tom 👍👍
Thanks 👍
While standing low high fly.. I hear popup sound in shoulder..is it serious?
No sure, just swap for regular dumbbell chest fly or dumbbell front raises if uncomfortable or concerning you.
