30-40 minute Metabolic Chest, Back, and Bicep Workout

This workout is suited for any experienced lifter with a short amount of time and a desire to get a good pump.

90 reps of bench 

90 reps of barbell rows

90 reps of straight bar curls

5 minute jump rope 

5 minute rowers

Warmup

Since we only have about 30 minutes to work, a long warmup isn’t necessary. Two minutes on the rower paired with 20 medicine ball wall throws will get enough blood flowing for this workout.

The Set Up

We will be super-setting flat bench, barbell row, and straight bar curls. Have a weight that’s light enough to perform 30 reps at a time. Since we are pressed for time the weight should already be on the bar. There shouldn’t be much changing of the weight in between exercises. We will not rest until the complex is completed.
