40min FULL BODY DUMBBELL | muscle building workout at home

[@LiftwithCee]

To keep progressing, you need to increase the challenge! Today, try adding an extra rep to some of your sets!! Also preview the exercise list in the description before starting, to see where you can ⬆ your dumbbell weight. Lastly, don't forget to share this workout with a friend! ♥💪🏻

[@sarahi3514]

Yes to all.

[@kristas9632]

Love you’re workouts, you should make an app!

[@bella4176]

Good morning, Cheryl! I did this session this morning for the first time. I really enjoyed it, superset 4 was challenging. The tricep move, I felt it in my triceps, but also in the anterior delts, bonus 😊 The butterfly crunches were challenging, too, I could only complete 10 reps on each set, but they felt great! I'm sure I'll be getting stronger by the third session! Keep them coming, I love these sessions, thank you so much for your time and sharing your talent ❤

[@nicolecobe1486]

I did this workout Monday and it was fire 🔥 By Tuesday night my legs were so sore from the change in workouts. This is a good feeling for me. Looking forward to tomorrow and Sunday

[@allysonwyles5110]

Awesome work-out! Legs on fire, love it! Thank you!

[@mistletoe4961]

Worked out for 43 years, usually at a gym. I have canceled my gym membership. Your channel does it all. I'll watch whatever you offer, whatever length you choose. You are an amazing woman. Make sure you remember that every single day. Thank you for all the hard work it takes to keep your channel going. Impressed beyond belief. 😊

[@shanDalicous]

Agree 1 000 000 %!

[@HelenUnangst]

I had a marvelous surprise today-I was able to complete the butterfly situps. I was able to get all the way up and stretch forward! I thought I would only be able to lift my shoulders a little! I have been working out with you for nearly a year, and what a difference it has made for me! This 71-year-old can complete a set of butterfly setups! Wow! Thank you, Cee for creating these workouts!

[@Nrsesand1]

Congratulations 🎉

[@joyceengland3636]

You have inspired me to keep trying! I want to complete a set of butterfly sit-ups also!

[@LaurieElias]

You are an inspiration!

[@venusin1st]

You are doing great! I’m 72 and yes the butterfly setups are a true challenge for me, I didnt make it all the up…Next time😃

[@ingridlarocque2938]

You inspire! I can’t imagine making it all the way up 🤔

[@marymcnamara5746]

I saw your question asking whether viewers preferred the warm-up be included in the video workout or not. I was interrupted before I could reply, and then I couldn't find the survey again to reply. I appreciate having the warm-up and workout together. It makes me feel more like I'm working out with you (with much lighter weights, of course--which is motivating). Plus, as a novice, I need the warm-up reminder & example. I can always do the warm-up independently and fast-forward past when I am more gexperienced if I wish (but I won't), but I think it's valuable to keep it w/the workout for "newbies." I also really appreciate the very visible dating on todays workout. Sometimes, I begin playing older workouts because I think they are new ones. I both envy & admire you, but am mostly grateful for your willingness to helping those of us hoping to gain fitness as you have.

[@riseleaders1657]

I agree 100% I'm less likely to do a warm up as thorough as yours on my own😬

[@janeanbollinger4401]

Yes! Please continue adding both warm-up and cool-downs. The cool downs prevent me from just laying on the floor afterwards!

[@rachaelsherwood3311]

Agree!!

[@claudiahuffmaster8249]

Yes I like the warm up and cool down. Thank you!

[@KariDehn]

The warm ups are perfect!

[@aydenw8220]

Could you do a more in depth video of your nutrition as it play a major role in fat loss and muscle definition. Your videos have been so educational, and I really trust your approach to fitness. I'd love to see your approach to nutrition and gain some insight there.😂❤

[@jelenasusic2914]

I am also interested. I want to grow muscle and I am not sure if I should eat a certain dose of protein every day. I also would like to know if Cee does any exercise such as running or swimming on her days off.

[@lovescole1]

Agreed!! I’d love more of this.

[@hotlatte3230]

She posts her food on her IG same name

[@mwmw5542]

Have you watched the series of videos called “Weightlifting Day 1” etc they go up to date 14. She talks about nutrition and what she eats and when in some of those videos.

[@esgee2464]

As a 51 year old new to weightlifting (1 year in) and the importance of macro/calories I would love to know what works for you at our age. I am focusing on high protein, lower carbs (from fruits/veggies) light-moderate good fats. Please give us an in depth video on this topic!

[@puertoricanlady2023]

I don't comment usually. I'm subscribed to your channel since last year when I decided to change my old habits. I enjoyed your 20-minute and 30-minute workouts. However, these workouts are by far the best. Thank you.

[@duanearisman3714]

This may be a long comment but here goes. First of all my thought was “she’s trying to do me in” after the first set. Those b stance squats. Wowza. But I made it through. I got to the end of this workout with the butterfly sit-ups and I cried. I had kidney cancer surgery just shy of 8 months ago and my abs had 5 small incisions in them. Today I was able to do almost all all the butterfly sit-ups, slightly modified. I’m 60 years old and stronger now than I have been in a very long time and I’m looking to purchase some heavier weights. I’m doing things I never thought I could do. I want to thank you Cee for these free workouts. I live in the country and have no gyms nearby. Your workouts allow me to get an awesome, sweaty, feel-great workout from home. Between you and Jesus I’m getting stronger and healthier. You ROCK! Btw…I really like the 5 minute warmup. Gets the body and heart all ready to go. ❤

[@LiftwithCee]

It’s an honour to be part of your fitness journey!! Congratulations on making the most of what’s available to you today. Much love, see you in the next workout! ♥️💪🏻

You Go Girl !

[@3boymom05]

I discovered your channel in November 2023 and dabbled, but in early January I started to stay true to 3Xweek following your weekly workout. I'm already objectively seeing increases in my strength and subjectively feeling increases in ease doing ADLs. I am not new to exercise. I was a competitive cyclist in the past, and am still a mountain bike coach, cycle instructor, and yoga instructor. On top of that, I am a retired Physical Therapist and have enough knowledge to be ridiculously critical of KZbin fitness content. I enjoy your straightforward format, concise and precise instructions, and your positive approach. Your form is spot on! I have never enjoyed lifting in the past, but now I'm bummed on my "day off" that I can't do your workout. I have told many people about your videos, from family and close friends to my hairdresser. I hope you are enjoying increased followers and views if that is what you want, and I fully intend to continue working out with you three times a week for as long as I can. Thank you!!❤

[@wildkat5516]

Spot on,.,,,,,

[@karentaylor9763]

LOVING the longer warm ups and the one side at a time sets on these 40 minute workouts. I was nervous to go from 30 to 40, but I shouldn't have been. I feel AMAZING after they are done!

[@sistersarahc]

Ha! I’m nervous to go from the 40 min to the new 30 min ones.

[@karentaylor9763]

Don’t be, if you do them right they kick your butt!! 😅

[@janeanbollinger4401]

I'm so glad you mentioned a muscle imbalance on the one-legged squats. I thought I was imagining it. And I love when you grimace as you finish a set - just like the rest of us. And then you say in the sweetest voice "last set," as if you are having tea! Love it!

[@lynnle5106]

Doing your workouts gives me strength all day long!!!!! 💪🏻 Thank you ❤

[@Schmetterling-n9k]

Dear Cheryl, you never fail to bring inspiration. Thank you for your wonderful workouts.

[@juliaroig9141]

I liked these workouts awhile ago but wanted to let you know that Im still doing them. You have made a magnificent contribution to health and resilience. Thank you 🙏 ❤

[@LiftwithCee]

I appreciate your kind words! BRAND NEW workouts will be added soon!

[@lisaloosle3225]

No more Monday morning blues thanks to you!! I really appreciate the 40 min format with longer warmups. Thank you! ❤

[@caroline7096]

Woo! Love this one. More 40 min workouts please 🙏🏼

[@vmross14]

Agree! Just finished all the 40s for the second time. Would rather have more of these than the split body workouts. Thank you!

[@colleenpedersen8692]

Thank you for this quiet, strong workout. Exactly what I needed this morning. Glad that I found you.

[@tanyasvetlitsa2208]

I would love to see more workout videos for the Full Body Workout 40 minutes

[@danaarkinzadeh9662]

Cee, I've been doing your 40min full body workouts consistently for about 4 months now and can definitely see sculpting changes in my body shape. I love your low key, accessible style, you made weights completely not intimidating for me. Loving it so much I invested in Bowflex adjustable dumbbells to take up less room and let me explore changing my weights more easily. I'm 55, have battled menopause for 4 years and finally am turning a health corner thanks in part to your workouts. Thank you so much for this channel and the community here you have built.

[@nicolarsefir]

I like the 40 min workouts 💪👌

[@christineschnell1532]

My daughter and I try to do your workouts three times a week. I’m 74 and she’s 46. I really appreciate when you do both floor exercises together because getting up and down makes me dizzy. We really enjoy your format. ❤

[@HeatherAllison-b6n]

Just finished 4 full weeks of LIFT with CEE and my body is seeing the changes. I worked out for years at a local studio doing HIT and Cardio and in 4 weeks of lifting, my body is seeing noticeable changes. I am almost 50 and really enjoy these types of workouts. I do them 5 days a week and it is exactly what I needed. Cee is easy to follow and music and instructions are great. I do her 40 min full body 3 days and the other 2 days I use a 20 or 30 min workout. She has so much to choose from. Thank you!!!

[@belovedcompanion]

A friend sent me your channel and I love your workouts! I wish you would count us out from 3 … so 3, 2, 1 rather than just 1/last rep at the end. I am often not watching the screen because of my setup so this would be useful.

[@jilliandugan1204]

Another great workout! Mon, Wed, Fridays!! Get it ladies!!

[@cidducky731]

I am soon turning 65 and have noticed my muscle tone is gone and my hips were causing leg pain. Even doing a variety of your 30-40 minute workouts, for only 2 1/2 weeks, my hip and leg discomfort has reduced significantly as your routines have already added strength to my leg and hip muscles. I will forever be following your routines as they have made me feel so much better and stronger!

[@Karen-di4bb]

I made it!! Did the whole series, each workout 3 times a week. Thank you Cee, ❤.

that stance squad on one leg was a perfect idea! I like that you also give lateral exercises.

[@LoriRoshawn]

Did three of these workouts this past week - I just *love* your 40min workouts! I get a fabulous workout, am building muscle, yet I don’t feel as rushed and overwhelmed as the 30min videos. So thank you so much! You are an inspiration! ❤

[@abbystone5738]

Thank you Cee! I’m in week 7 and feeling fantastic. I appreciate you so much and hope your week is fantastic 💕❤️💕

[@shelleycornelson3166]

Been lifting with amazing CEE for a month now. Yesterday for fun I wanted to see if I could do more than my 5 regular push-ups and I DID 10! 😮This is monumental. A huge indicator that switching to your workouts have absolutely helped strengthen this 49 3/4 year old body! 🎉🎉🎉 thanks Cheryl!❤

What a wonderful testimonial! Congratulations 💪🏻♥️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Love these 40 minute workouts. The workouts use logic in balancing upper and lower body sets, the pace is amazing and this format allows for progressive overload throughout the week. Keep these 40 min workouts coming!!!!

[@danajohnson1378]

I get so excited seeing a new 40 minute workout drop! While not a complete mesocycle, I am completing the workout # corresponding to the month. I am loving workout 3 for March! Fingers crossed we get 12 of these! 😂 The 40 minutes are my favorites ‘now’ but I Iove them all!!! 💪❤️

[@faithfeldman8731]

Have not commented in a while Cee but thank you for the 40 minute workouts! They are a game changer for me! You have me hooked! 💪 ❤

[@carolmiller5713]

Another great workout (I'm 73) for us older women. My only suggestion is either a counter or sound, especially on the floor, to know the speed of each rep so I don't have to watch my phone which is awkward while doing the exercise. Thanks again!

[@juliamac515]

Hi Cheryl, I've been doing your 40 min workouts for 2 and a half weeks now and am absolutely loving them! They are the first workouts of any type that I've done that I actually look forward to. I do them every day and a 30 min one on Saturday and rest on Sunday. I use a 12.5kg barbell for the RDLs. I'm now going to colour code the workouts for days of the week based on the colour of your gym gear :) I think you've found the right formula with supersets, 30 sec breaks and useful info every now and again. But above all it's your lovely character that shines through. Thank you!

[@nicoleledrewmay6404]

Just finished doing this for 4 weeks and down 4 lbs! I gained 10 lbs last year in my mid 50s. Onto another workout now. Another 6 lbs to go. Increased my dumbbell weight, even doubling some of them. Thanks so much ❤

Love the 40m format thank you. I prefer supersets to single sets, which can be boring. More bang for my time with supersets. Also appreciate the included warmups. I am horribly negligent warming up without being guided. Thank you for all you do for us! ❤❤❤

Hi Cheryl, I had an opportunity to do the 40 minute #7 and I loved everything about it. Love the new music pushes me. I started a new job in January so I am in an office 3 days a week so I have been doing just the 30 minute work outs. Thank you and Happy Easter.

[@LiftwithCee]

Wonderful to hear from you Theresa! Happy Easter ♥️

[@teresacurran6771]

I started working out with you when my gym quit offering weight lifting classes. I have been working out with you consistently for a couple of years now. I love these workouts. I really like the 40 minute 3x a week format. I hope you keep making them. I like the warm up because at 66 I need to warm up my muscles before I plunge in! I like the warm up being in the workout because I workout early in the morning before work and have limited time so searching for a separate warm up video isn’t as easy as having it all in a one video. You inspire me to keep at it and have proven to me that you can built muscle in your 60’s. Being strong as you age is so important. It just makes life easier. As I have watched my 90 year old Mom struggle to get up and down from a chair or pick something up and it convinces me even more to keep up these workouts! Thank you Cee! Keep on inspiring us.❤

[@LiftwithCee]

You don’t have to search! There’s a WARM UP playlist now at the top of my channel. I workout on my lunch hour and understand limited time! I flip between the WARM UP and COMBO SETS playlist, easily. Watch for the new SIT DOWN WITH ME video on Sunday… I talk about the 40 minute program 😁
