Strength 101: Chest and Back

Time:  40:43
Equipment needed:  Set of dumbbells for your fitness level.

I used 5 lb dumbbells throughout this workout.  They were a little tough in spots but I just pushed through because any lighter wouldn't have challenged me and when our muscles aren't challenged, they don't change.  I could have used heavier weights on the chest exercises and will make a note to do that in the future.

Most of this workout focuses on the opposing muscle groups of the chest and upper back.  Dulci throws in abs and lower back at the end of the workout.  Mixed in with this workout is a bit of cardio with jumping jacks (do modified jacks if you shouldn't be jumping) and some stretching.
