Sculpt your chest and triceps with two dumbbells and this 15 minute circuit

Man doing push ups.

The chest and triceps are two of the most highly searched for body parts when it comes to exercises. After all, a chiselled chest is one of the most striking areas of your body, whereas the triceps make up the majority of your upper arm. Training both together is efficient as they’re both ‘push’ muscles, but you don’t have to spend hours doing so. This 15 minute circuit will work your pecs and triceps hard and all you need is a pair of dumbbells and your body weight.

Near enough every chest exercise relies on assistance from your triceps, for example, compound exercises like the bench press, push ups and incline press. As the chest and triceps are synergistic it therefore makes sense to train them together. Not only will it make your workouts more efficient training two muscle groups in one go, but it will also save you valuable warm up time too.
