FUEL Series 30 Min ANTAGONIST UPPER BODY Workout | Day 12

  • Ready to push and pull through the next 30 minutes with some staple compound lifts combined with tempo work, isometrics and bodyweight exercises!
    The finisher will be surprisingly tough as we will have depleted our muscles! It’s a fun one though!😅
    The timer will be on for 45 seconds per exercise within each superset. We have 30 seconds of rest in between every completed superset!
    The dumbbells I am using for your reference are 2 x 15kg, 2 x 8kg and 2 x 4kg each. The specific supersets for these weights are detailed below to help you decide your weight if you sometimes use my weights to gauge!
    PLEASE NOTE: I would likely have gone for 2 x 17.5kg as opposed to 2 x 15kg, but I went with the lower weight because I am doing bodyweight dips on the bars later in the workout. I sometimes do dips on the chair, and I would go slightly heavier during the initial compound movements.
    Every time the staple of slow lateral raises and slightly faster-paced raises appear, I will be using the 2 x 4kg dumbbells!

    My tip for this workout: I use two sets of adjustable weights and can't transition as quickly as CG. I paused the video so I could set the correct weight, get into position and go. I felt that way I could lift the max weight and not miss the timed sessions. As Caroline says I made it my own. Loving FUEL!

    • @MysticDesertBreeze
      @MysticDesertBreeze 2 года назад +12

      I pause the videos here and there too--especially when carrying my heavy weights back to the stand to dial in a lower weight. I don't feel like I am getting a rest so I pause even if I can technically dial in the weight before the rest time is up ha ha.

    What a fantastic upper body workout! Such a brilliant range of exercises..heavy and light weights plus bodyweight moves, and all focussed on training antagonistic pairs of muscles! Just such superb planning once again! This is going to be so interesting to do...but hard too...when Caroline says that the finisher will be demanding then we know what to expect! Have a great workout everyone! Matthew
    PS...all finished! What a great session! I used 12.5, 8 and 6 kg and the staple was certainly getting hard by the end! I loved the finisher and the add on! Thank you so much, Caroline!

      Fantastic upper body session! Caroline was trully born to do this. I loved the format and that the second set was always a faster pace. The staple was such a burner, I loved using lighter weights as you can really isolate and burn the muscle. Lat sweep holds were killer!! The finisher was just insane. I don't remember when snow angels were so hard to perform as today, the last set of deadstop push ups was a challenge.
      Brilliant! I did standing core workout as I didn't do it in a long time.. what a fun workout!
      Have an amazing day, it will be hard to lift those arms today 😅

    Don’t take this the wrong way, but I feel better when I see you having to push through these workouts like I do. It’s just a reminder that once I reach my fitness goal, to not act like I’ve “arrived” but to always keep pushing. I’d be discouraged if you made this look easy:) lol! Thanks so much for sharing!

    I used 10 pretty much for everything she used 15 ,and 5 for everything she used 8. 2.5 for the quick laterals. Still working on upper body strength, but hey, my pushups are wonderful compared to where I started! LOVE TO ALL.

    DAY 12 on repeat ✨️ so I used the same weights as last time and I have to say last time was really tough, today was much more achievable and really shows how Fuel builds your strength and resolve. Loving these repeats as you can really see the development and the glorious formatting. Thanks Cx awesome session.

You’ll find your fitness levels increase and suddenly you’ll be smashing it and feeling so fit!

My 3 rd baby is 5 months and this has been a journey to getting back on track with a lot of aspects: discipline, keeping my word to my self, being a better version mentally, emotionally … I’m a personal trainer to but I love and get get fulled when training with others, so this has been amazing!

  • @alisonryckman7711
    @alisonryckman7711 2 года назад +1

    Another great workout. After the first set of staple laterals, I knew that the smallest DBs I have would start to add up by the end. And yes it is super helpful knowing what Caroline is lifting, not to be competitive, but to pick your own weights appropriately by comparison. I tried dips on bars today….yep, those need work! Favourite exercise today was lat sweeps with 15s holds. Did the add-on today. With it being an older video, I miss the beeps and end up out of step so I just go for about 4 or 5 good reps of each one and that works out about right. Looking forward to the next workout!

The range of weights makes it more interesting to do, as you say,...I only have 12.5, 8 and 6 kg weights so I used those! I’m sure you’ll love thus when you do it...and if you fancy a few more push ups then the add on is great! Enjoy your workout! Matthew

    There was a time (about a year ago) I could only use about HALF the dumbbell size Caroline used, but today I am using almost the same size, and sometimes the same size! I have come so far, thank you Caroline! There is no way I would have ever challenged myself on my own. It is so helpful to have someone I can look up to who is motivating me all along the way.
