[Music] what’s up has Fateh tribe it’s your personal trainer coach Kozak and I’m Claudia and this is a five-minute chest workout this routine can be completed on its own or in combination with any of our other routines the only equipment required for today’s routine is a pair of dumbbells you can follow along with me for the standard moves and you can follow me for some easier modifications if you’re ready to go let’s do it [Music] [Music] no dumbbells needed for the first one we’re getting started on the floor with a 1 in 1/4 push up hands are shoulder width apart I’m gonna come up onto my feet and I’m gonna be on my knees we’re going all the way down and then we’re gonna come up a quarter of the way back down and then all the way back up so one quarter and back up and if this variation from the knees is too much you can take your push-ups to a high countertop or even on your couch or an ottoman we’re not gonna count any reps today so it’s all about getting in as many repetitions as you can in a lot of time period it’s not gonna take a lot no it’s not for you to feel they’re very firm he’s a very very effective move so basically getting a double push up on your chest down there at the bottom making sure to breathe and just keep moving cranking them out here you’re gonna it exhale on the push up we got last five four three two one zero alright we are gonna need your dumbbells for the next one go ahead and stand up on your feet right into it keeping the pace up today we’re doing a standing low fly from a staggered position palms are up dumbbells are out at your side well use your chest muscles to bring those dumbbells straight up and then control that lowering descent making sure to breathe throughout we’re breathing in on the way down and then exhaling and the hardest part of the move which is that raise good feeling that chest starting to burn already so don’t turn this into a curl but instead focusing on making those chest muscles do the work keeping the same bend in your elbows throughout the whole move really also focus on controlling that descent don’t just allow the dumbbells a flat back down good posture core is nice and tight not much left on this one four five four three two one zero all right burnin going to the floor for the next one moving into a lying chest press Plus twist palms are facing forward to start elbows are at a 90 we’re gonna press up and as we’re pressing up we’re gonna squeeze our chests and twist those palms until they’re facing inward creepy being sure not to bounce our upper arms off the floor keeping a nice and control and at the top of every rapper twit sorry rep repetition we’re squeezing our chest muscles excellent make sure your dumbbells are over your chest and not over your face yes good point if they’re too far over your face all of a sudden your shoulders start to take over keeping those dumbbells in line with your chests throughout the move again just getting as many repetitions in as you can add a control pace keeping this one up for five four three two one zero stay in the same spot start those dumbbells straight up slight bending your elbow moving into a dumbbell fly open them up close and squeeze your chest up at the top going hard and fast in this five minutes getting as much work as possible in I want you to control that lowering phase of the move as much as you can don’t allow those dumbbells a flop down keeping that slight bend in your elbows throughout and we’re breathing in on the way down and exhaling as you come up squeeze those dumbbells together squeeze that chest excellent work come on keep it up pass fit drive it’s a quick five minutes just get through it just keep moving almost there not much left on this one let’s go last ten seconds come on grind it out you can always adjust your weight if you need to do so let’s go five four three two one and zero all right set those dumbbells off to the side they don’t need them moving into a wide finger out push-up so we’re down in a push-up position we’re gonna get our hands a little wider and shoulder-width fingers are pointing out and going all the way down all the way up I’m on my feet and I’m down on my knees and remember again if pushups are too much for you down on the ground take it to a high countertop or your couch again you make this workout work for you in this finger out position the wide hand setup puts more emphasis on our chest this is it right here finish strong hands feet tried didn’t say just cuz it was five minutes it was gonna be easy but it will be worth it come on that’s it right here go go go go not much left how many can you get right here ride it out to the last ten seconds come on almost there and five four three two one zero and that’s it nice work went hard and
