45 Minute Arm Sculpting workout with Abs - Dumbbells only!

[@aprilpotter3054]

I have been lifting for 35+ years and I work hard to push myself. Osteoporosis runs in my family(maternal and paternal) so I know I must take care of my bones and muscles. I am 51 and recently went to get a hip looked at. The Dr told me I have the skeleton of a teenager. (Tendons, not so much, lol). Thank you Chris for helping all of us stay healthy. Toned and strong is the new skinny!! ❤

Love working out with CHRISTINA DORNER,KZbin channel.THE BEST !

[@JudySTRENGTH]

Great arms & abs class 💪

[@SarahLloyd-lk4hb]

I did this yesterday, and i was not okay.😂 I used to think that doing a workout, meant I had burn a minimum of 500-800 calories. If I didn't, then that meant it wasn't an effective workout or I just didn't work hard enough. That's why I didn't do strength workouts for a long time. Little did I know that these strength workouts would become a pivotal point in my health journey. Not only is cardio more effective, but I'm able to do everyday things like carrying groceries and even getting up from the couch a LOT easier.😅 Sweat and high calorie burn is not always an indicator of an effective workout.

[@CDornerFitness]

YAY!!!! I LOVE THIS SO MUCH Sarah!!! You are so right❤️❤️

[@mkmosmyth]

Great format!! Thanks for another great workout, Chris!!

[@CDornerFitness]

My pleasure!!

[@mariageorgephoto]

I enjoyed this class again this morning! I really like the exercises with an ab combo and loved the AMRAP at the end. Hope you’re enjoying your time off ❤

[@JohnqComberq]

My arms are pumped! The tree looks great.

[@lsbillion]

WooHoo! I did it! Glory! Hallelujah!!

[@christineoakes764]

Great workout today for me (Saturday 02.12.23). Using heavier weights but this will make you smile, I have to keep putting my glasses on to see the value of the weights as now I have more black dumbbells I cannot red them without the glasses 😂. Sign of old age! Thank you Chris for making me smile today

[@CDornerFitness]

HAH you are so cute!

[@kendralouannasbiggestfan638]

I need to make breakfast with my tippy toes because I can’t use my arms! I really loved this class. Thanks Chris

[@CDornerFitness]

[@shelbyhjort7440]

Loved the combination of arms and abs! Feeling so strong!

[@Scooter3825]

Happy to say that I have finally been able to go up in weights!!! Thanks, Chris for your inspiration.

[@raceyred]

That was just as challenging the 2nd time Chris 🥵! Please continue to rest and I hope you feel better soon.

[@darcyfan4009]

[@Mom2my4blessings]

I really enjoyed this workout so much! I liked alternating between upper body and abs. The ending was so challenging 😅. Thank you Chris!

[@ericamcmahon6231]

Nice combo workout. Thanks so much and have a great weekend! 🙂

[@AfterPartyAlex]

LOVED all that back and core work. I didn't want to do the final AMRAP set but I decided to increase my weights and that made it worthwhile.

[@VortexFN12]

Good one after a stressful Monday at work. Thanks!

[@lisawilson5623]

Did this over the weekend and wow! What a great workout! My shoulders say Thanks!

[@sandradavey9014]

Just caught up with this one, it wasn’t until near the end that I realise I had done it before. It’s true what you say that you can pick any workout and there is a good chance you won’t remember it.😂😂. I absolutely loved this one, my arms were shaking by the end. Thank you Chris. Xx

[@bindig.6704]

Excellent upper body work out however probably should not have done it prior to bedtime last evening....wasn't able to fall asleep until after 2 a.m. Thank you, Love and Light ❤

[@Ali_Jarratt]

This is one of my favourites, fun to do again ❤

[@Julie-Moure]

Thank you for amazing arm and AB’s workout

[@AllisonBrez]

Think this was a first time doing this one and I loved it. It went fast and I love working Upper Body after taking it easy the last 3 months. Thanks, Chris...these "old" videos are just as good as your new ones : )

[@trinasarafi-reinach834]

Loved this one! My arms feel good!

[@LinzSee]

Having a discussion with my husband (big Seinfeld fan) afterward. He says “The Answering Machine” reference is “tippytoe” and because I have young kids the Sing 2 reference is “tippytoeS”. The dance teacher is singing “let me see your tippytoes!” 😂 I love your movie quote and tv show references. They keep me from staring at the timer and make the workouts fly by!

[@CDornerFitness]

HAHAAH Yep!! We are totally nuts here LOL!

[@dizonab]

Another great arm workout to start my week! Thank you!

[@Esaaj]

Did this after redoing ur Australian advanced step from 2 yrs ago. Loved it!! Thanks sm!!!! ❤❤❤❤

[@NormaK123]

Great arm workout. And I know I did more weight this time because my heaviest weights last year at this time were 10 pounders. Since I have added 12s, 15s and 20s. Getting stronger every day thanks to cdornerfitness!

I know I worked my full upper body with this one because there were weights everywhere 😅 I remembered this one from last year because it made me want to visit NYC again! 🤗 Thanks for reposting for us. Hope you are feeling better soon 🩷💐

[@kimyates3033]

Took me twice as long with interruptions from a 2 year old, then smashed my thumb with my weights at the end 😢 but I enjoyed the conversation and the workout! Getting stronger 💪 😊

[@katienors2249]

Really liked this workout!

[@Scooter3825]

Did this one again. Great workout. Love your classes and ability to pick out what I feel like doing today instead of having to do what the gym has to offer on a particular day. I've been working out to your classes since Covid and can report feeling stronger and more in shape than i've ever been. Thanks, Chris!

[@CDornerFitness]

YAY Thanks so so much!

What a great upper body and ab workout today !! That Amrap segment at the end was challenging ,but felt great

[@CDornerFitness]

Glad you liked it!!

[@janetbrand9773]

Loved doing this again ! LOVE that you posted original date. I know I wasn’t using 15 lbs last year.

[@CDornerFitness]

Great job!

[@Cindy.Sikora]

Loved it-again! Heaviest weights at our daughter’s house are 10 lbs- I use 15-20 at home! Chris suggestions for making moves more challenging did just that! Happy Holidays everyone!!🕎🎄💕

[@CDornerFitness]

WOOOOO GO CINDY!!

[@75Pugs]

TGIF! I woke up with no motivation to get my workout done. My workouts are a habit and I'm consistent so with low motivation I was able to just power through. I have a minor tweak in my lat/shoulder area so I went a lot lighter than I normally go and modified a few things. This was the first morning my dog didn't bark at Louie. I'm not sure if he had low motivation, too, or has given up trying to make Louie his friend 😂😂 thanks for always posting workouts for the week, even when it's a replay! I like having the week planned out. You are incredible, Chris!

[@CDornerFitness]

HAHAHAH, Louie always helps...although he is sitting on my lap right now, which sometimes feels like I can't get up!! Great job for Getting up and getting it done!

[@kristinwelsch8852]

Great workout! The AMRAP was killer! I don’t remember doing this one when it first came out so it was brand new for me! Lol! Hope you’re feeling better soon Chris!

[@annedonohue7482]

What a fun workout! I especially liked the AMRAP at the end. And I love-love-love Michelle Dorrance! The Joyce Theater broadcast a performance during the pandemic and it was amazing. Getting to a show there is on my bucket list. Hope you're feeling like yourself again soon!

[@CDornerFitness]

She is so Amazing!! We are going to see Beatbox and Tap there soon! I CANNOT WAIT!

I remember this one--fun convo! And excellent workout, of course! As someone else mentioned, it's helpful that you put the original workout date up--I have heavier weights now, so it reminds me that I'm still getting stronger. Take care and sending healing vibes. ❤ Thank you!

This was a great workout. The 30 and 45 second intervals were much more do-able (and less discouraging) than 60 minute intervals - even though we did them over and over and over again! Thanks Chris for re-posting this "vintage" workout.

This was quite the workout!! Love the 45 seconds and 30 second intervals. Trying to go heavier on weights. Started at 5 lbs back in March and now am doing 20 lbs as my heavy weight. Love the progress. Thanks Chris! And to add more arm strength training, I had to shovel my way out yesterday morning. Winter has come too early.

Yes I have. It didn’t help much. I just need to work on getting my tri’s stronger I think. I have arthritis that affects my joints and that may be part of it, too. I will not stop tho. Doing what I can. Thanks for replying. Don’t know very many on KZbin that take the time to do that. ❤

[@AmyLauren82]

This was a great workout! It was actually one of my cardio days, but I decided to do strength instead- something I NEVER thought I would choose! I was definitely a cardio queen, and would dread doing weights- they always seemed boring and I would burn fewer calories doing them. I started working out with you nearly 2 years ago, and did only your step classes, but thanks to your (constant) encouragement in your videos to do strength training , I challenged myself to do one strength video a week. Now I’m up to 3- and I actually look forward to them!! Thank you for being so encouraging and for giving us so many videos to choose from!!

[@ashliwemett]

So great! I know I did this one before (only because I remembered you talking about the NYC dance troupe) but I have no idea why it wasn't saved in my repeat folder. This whole video is all my favorite moves! I loved it. I really like when you do an AMRAP section that goes by time, not by counting movements. I feel like when we count movements (like do each rep 10 times or whatever) I fall behind and then get all off. With the timed segments it doesn't matter if I go a little slower than you. Anyway, this was great! Thank you!

[@bettebrazier3192]

Lol - you probably didn't save it because Chris is always putting out new and equally amazing classes. I gave up on saving to favourites because I found I was saving them all!

[@deblandis8393]

An awesome upper body & ab workout. Graduated to my 12s for the last 2 AMRAPs of bicep curls. Hope you’re feeling better each day.❤

[@conniewilkins7694]

Great workout! Doing 30-45 seconds allows me to try heavier weights and I was able to do heavier on some moves but I did have to stop doing skull crushers and just do kickbacks because it hurts my elbows if I do a heavier weight to feel the tri’s. Modify modify modify. 🙌🏻😎💕💪🏻

[@CDornerFitness]

YAY!!! Great job Connie! Have you tried the skullcrushers with a band around your arms? It will help keep your elbow in alignment!

[@ryanandcarriemears7339]

I absolutely LOVE this video. The compound core stability exercises are AMAZING. Love love love the 35 and 45 sec sets bc I can go slower and heavier. I do have a question. 15 lbs for bi is too light for me and 20 too heavy. I don’t have 17s but would be perfect. Do I really need to get them or is there some other way I can slowly build up to 20?

[@CDornerFitness]

Thank you so much!! Great question, and there are a couple things you can do. You can sometimes use the 20s but alternate arms if we are doing both arms, that will slowly get you stronger to use them. OR..not what you want to hear, but, yes get some 17s, I honestly love having that extra option for in between
