New Plus Workout: Upper Body Strength with Cardio Bookends

Hi FB Fam!

I hope you are having a great week and you're ready to work your body in my newest strength and cardio routine.

Upper Body Strength with Cardio Bookends

This 38-minute workout has a warm-up and a cool-down, and the body of the workout is about 23 minutes long. There are five groups of five exercises. Each group begins and ends with a cardio move with three upper-body strength exercises sandwiched in the middle. Depending on the weights you choose and the level of impact/intensity at which you perform the cardio exercises, this routine could range in difficulty from a 3/5 to a 5/5. 

Though I created this routine with the upper body in mind, it turned out to be more of a total body workout, with the strength portion focusing on the upper body and the cardio exercises emphasizing the lower body. I included low-impact modifications for the cardio moves. However, know that you can always swap out an exercise for another you prefer or feel more comfortable with. 

If you liked this routine, here are some others to try!

Thanks for working out with me!
