Never know what to do when you’re in the gym?
Try this full body, 30m workout to build muscle and work capacity with just DBs and a bench.
It’s only 30 minutes if you can avoid the beautiful front desk girl at the gym.
This is a format I’ve used with hundreds of clients who are short on time.
For my clients who are mostly business owners, realtors, or otherwise have their hands full with work… it can’t be beat.
And this video I posted will talk you through exactly how to pull it off.
WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING
I. First Circuit:
A. Goblet squats
B. Bench press
C. Single-arm rows
Rest for 60-120 seconds, repeat 3x
After you’ve gone through this circuit three times, move on to the second.
II. Second Circuit:
A. Split squats
B. Push-ups
C. Bent-over rows
Rest for 60-120 seconds, repeat 3x
After you’ve gone through this circuit three times, move on to the third.
III. Gun Run:

That’s it! You’ve finished the workout.
Have a bit of extra time?
(Optional) Core Work:
Pick one:
- Weighted crunches
- Sit-ups
- AB roll outs

CONSIDERATIONS
Select weights that challenge you in the 10-20 rep range and gradually increase the weight over time.
Keep track of your reps and weights to track progress.
If you don’t know how to do any of these exercises, or if you’re not 100% clear, be sure to watch the video above for a short demo.
