A solid full body workout involving much focus on unilateral movements to increase your awareness of how each side performs, feels and puts a lot of demand on the core throughout!
For this workout you need some dumbbells, your mat, a chair/bench for Bulgarian lunges and a yoga block for the single arm Renegade Rows (though it isn’t necessary to use this during this exercise I find it more comfortable on my wrists and also increased the range of movement available) and the finisher of Uneven Push ups!
The dumbbells I am using for your reference are 2 x 15kg each and 2 x 10kg.
I use both of the 15kg dumbbells for nearly all of the workout however I only use 1 x of the 10kg dumbbell and this is for the single arm Arnold Presses. I did have both handy incase I needed to drop the weight as the rest period is shorter!
The timer will be on for 60 seconds per exercise with 20 seconds rest inbetween each set!

This is tough!! Though definitely something nice about focusing on one side… knowing we get a good rest between sides!
Aim for the approximate same pace and reps per side and use that core to provide much needed support and stability throughout!
Full body Fridays… here comes the fun!!
