Man Does Dumbbell Reverse Fly Exercise During Back Workout

Three moves, one set of equipment, and a rapid-fire total-body blitz that’s guaranteed to lean you out while muscling you up.

Attack at least five (and up to 10, if you’re a total monster) back-to-back rounds of incline dumbbell rows, dumbbell squat punches, and bentover reverse flyes until every muscle in your body is begging you to stop—which you won’t.

Directions

You’ll do this workout as a circuit, meaning you’ll complete each exercise consecutively without rest. Once you’ve finished all exercises, rest for 30 to 60 seconds. Repeat the entire circuit for five to 10 rounds.

Depending upon your ability, you may shorten or lengthen the rest periods between circuits. You may also complete more or fewer rounds.
