The warm-up is followed by 45-minutes of back, shoulder, and bicep work. Exercises include dumbbell row reverse grip, dumbbell one-arm row, band t-back squeeze, barbell pullovers, modified back extensions, prone back side rotations, dumbbell overhead presses and side lateral raises, band lateral & front raises, dumbbell rear fly, band rear delt raise, barbell curls, dumbbell curls, concentration curls (whew! the biceps are burning already!), dumbbell curl-up wrist turn lower down, dumbbell hammer curls, dumbbell wrist curls. Alhough viewing a list of exercises may appear standard, you will love the muscle-confusion and challenge this workout delivers. All this work is followed by a well-deserved stretch.

Great workout!

This is a great workout for someone trying to add some strength and some curves. I can already see a difference in my biceps and shoulders! I just recently began doing Cathe's workouts in the last 6 months and I love it!

Excellent upper body routine....

Here is another installment in Cathe Friedrich's Gym Style series, this time focusing on Back, Shoulders and Biceps. Clocking in at under an hour, this routine gets a lot done in little time. For this workout you will need a barbell (dumbells as also be used), assorted dumbells, a resistance band and step or bench are also used.

After a simple warmup, you will start with back work. Here you will see reverse dumbell rows, then you will move into one arm rows followed by a seated T-back squeeze using a resistance band. Finishing out the back set are barbell pullovers and some unweighted lower back exercises.

Shoulders are next, these are hit well with a combination of dumbell and resistance band exercises. Here you will see seated overhead presses, standing lateral raises including a bonus set with the band, front raises with the band, and rear deltoid raises again an extra set with the band.

Biceps are last, these are hit extremely thoroughly and from all angles. Starting with barbell curls working the length of the bicep, then you will do dumbell partial reps working the belly of the bicep, bottom half first, then the top half. Next you will do seated concentration curls which work the peak of the bicep, a very slow count is used here which makes them pretty tough. To finish out the bicep segment you will do hammer curls and an exercise where you curl up and twist down, working the length again plus the forearms. Finally you will do some wrist curls which get the forearms some more.

This is probably my favorite in the Gym Style series as hard as it is. Very thorough and challenging, guaranteed to whip your upper body into shape. There are also shorter premixes if you don't have time to do the full workout which is a nice option. Four and a half stars for this one.
