As the week draws to a close you may not feel like working out—and there’s nothing wrong with that. Rest days are just as important as training days. But if you think your state of mind would benefit from some movement, we heartily recommend this upper-body dumbbell session from NASM-certified personal trainer Sydney Cummings Houdyshell.
Cummings Houdyshell is known for her accessible and motivating workout programs—offered free on her YouTube channel—and this 30-minute no-repeat session is a great way to challenge your upper body without having to slog your way through multiple sets of the same exercise. It’s a follow-along video too, with Cummings Houdyshell offering form tips throughout as well as regressions of some moves.
