gf11 Full Body | Dumbbell Strength Progressive Workout Series – Part 4
Welcome to my Full Body Strength Progressive Series – Part 4 of 4. With each subsequent workout in the series the Work : Rest (work to rest ratio) increases – either by increasing the exercising time or by decreasing the rest time, or both. The 4 workouts in this Series do not need to be done in a specific order so definitely try them all.
