Man Does Dumbbell Flye Exercise

If you’re looking to save some time and combine your chest and back day workouts into one, then look no further.

This two-in-one, dumbbell-only routine will work to develop mass in your traps, lats, pecs, and delts using a combination of flyes, rows, and presses. The end result? A more defined upper body that’ll look good no matter what shirt you’re wearing—if you’re wearing a shirt at all.

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 four to 6 rounds.

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