Made it! Week 6 with upper body weights at 5# for each hand, I was along with you for 5 exercises at 3 sets with 15 reps. Ready to try 8# next week. Thanks Vanessa 😊❤️
Super rainy Saturday, we didn’t get an outdoor walk, but I did pick up flowers from deck from previous nights’ storms while throwing a tennis ball for Gabe. Week 3 of upper body weight workout. I was right along with you 5 exercises at 3 sets for 15 reps Oexcept for fit ball). I stuck with 5# weights. Gentle stretches before and after routine are great. Also, I appreciate the timer for 30 seconds between each set and reminder to keep moving. Thanks Vanessa 😊❤️
Rainy Arkansas day this morning. I just finished week 5 upper body weights workout with 5# each hand. I was right along with you for the 3 sets of 15 reps for the 5 exercises. I plan for one more week prior to increasing to 8#. Definitely, still feeling that third set. Thanks for the rest reminder between sets. Also, the gentle stretch at beginning and end. Thanks Vanessa 😊❤️
Good idea Kelly 👏👏👏👏🤗 Another week has prepped you well to increase then! Great consistency here, and another part of your fitness and strength improving really well 🏆🏆🏆
We just went on an outdoor 1.5 mile walk+gardening for the excessive heat warning, then I finished week 4 for upper body weights. I was right along with you for 3 sets of 15 reps for 5 exercises at 5# each hand. I’m planning 2 more weeks at 5# before trying to increase to 8# weights. I think, the heat/humidity is getting my fit ball. I went to bed with it inflated, but this morning deflated quite a bit. Thanks Vanessa 😊❤️
Yes get that fitball pumped when needed 👌 Or it does not support very well. Well done with the increase here, do listen to your body then definitely increase the weight when you feel ready 🔥 I look forward to hearing this!
Vanessa, you should have 1M followers. Your workouts are wonderful. Serving 20 years in the U.S. military battered and bruised my body. Your workouts are re-energizing me to “love” working out (and daily)❣️

Hi there Leanne 😀 Great work today! Thank you and glad you felt the muscles working 💪 Yep the fitball a good piece of equipment to do chest on for these free weights😉
Yay!! I did it!! I'm glad I stuck with 5 lb dumbbells instead of going for 8 lbs, because you suggested 4 kg!! After 3 sets, I definitely felt the burn!!🔥🔥🔥 I know I'm going to be sore tomorrow and even more sore in 2 days!!😫😫
Yessssss Kirsten👌💯😀⚡️⚡️⚡️Great job! You did it! What a good effort today:) Embracing the weights challenge, woohoo! Yep you will probably feel it in a couple of days but this is ok and a good thing👏👏👏💪 You can repeat this one whenever you want to do the upper body weights, and notice the improvements in a short time, where you may want to edge up the weights😉👌I look forward to hearing your progress! Do keep posting on other vids you do aswell so I can see your progress✔️👌😉
Tried this one today for the first time…..fantastic! Only just started using weights. Have been following Vanessa since May when I started doing her resistance band workouts. Have loved all her band workouts so it made sense to follow her weights routines too. I wasn’t disappointed. 😊
Hi Shani 🤗 Great work starting up your weights! A new piece of equipment ready to challenge you in different ways and add diversity to your overall regime💪 You can work your way through these routines and master these basic moves repeating the routines each week 😉 You could do a full body weights, then a cardio video of mine, then a resistance band workout, then an upper body weights / lower body , followed by Pilates to balance it all out. This of course depends on your overall goal 💪 Anyway, there's a thought for you, but do get back to me and I'd love to guide you with this! Keep up the great work🤗
@@Vanessabhealthtv Thankyou so much for your all your help and advice…that is really kind of you! I am not overweight but I do feel that I could do with some toning up….everything seems to be heading south 🤭 I think a bit of muscle strength is a good idea and very beneficial especially as we get older. I do enjoy and like the sound of everything you have suggested. Never had a go at any sort of Pilates as I’m not that flexible but happy to have a go and do what I can.

Week 2 upper body weights completed. We just went on a 2 mile outdoor morning walk+gardening due to heat advisory (yesterday topped out at 107 degrees). I was with you for majority of time for the 5 exercises at 3 sets with 15 reps. I thought, I had aired up fit ball yesterday, but it must have a hole somewhere. This morning it was half deflated. I used 5# weights. Thanks Vanessa 😊❤️
Good to hear you did the whole routine today woohoo 😀 Sure, at least you can use the floor if needed for the chest ones! I look forward to hearing your progress here Kelly with the weights you use too 💪
Got to the upper body weights this morning after we took ~2 mile outdoor walk. Love the 3 setsx15 to target upper body with 5 different exercises…I got 15 with 5# weights for each set. For fly, I laid on floor (fit ball was flat this morning). Other wise right along with you. No yoga tomorrow (Tuesday) due to holiday, so figured good time to add a second day of weights into week workouts. Then rotate upper body and full body weights to get twice weekly. Thanks Vanessa 😊❤️
Nice to hear you got out for a walk😀 Really glad you like the 3 x 15 format, this is a stock standard for weights and a good moderate way to do this! Good job with getting into your weights now Kelly! Woohoo💪 Yes, great to aim for twice weekly full body. I'll do a lower body one soon aswell 😀
Hi Vanessa we did this one today. We haven't done weights for about a year. We will continue on with the other exercises in your lovely lost. Thanks again Chris
Hi Chris 👋 Sure! You can do whatever you prefer here 👌 Weights is a great change and to help challenge your body in a different way, whereas the bands and bodyweight have a different feel, it's totally up to how your body feels and your goals 😀💯 Hope to see your comments pop up on the other videos again!
Amazing Kirsten 😀✨️🙌 Great to hear from you! Hello to you in Maryland, I hope to travel there someday 🙏 My child was just asking alot about USA recently 😊 So good to hear from you again!
Loved doing both lower and upper body weights in one day - used 3kg for upper and it was challenging at 3rd set so think it’s right - so good to be strengthening without killing my wrist - a good day - better than yesterday!
Excellent 💯💪 Getting the two back to back! Well done today on this Arlene 😉🔥 You are going strong! That's exactly what we want, the third set to be challenging where it's a struggle. Keep your form though. Play around with the weights on this. Sounds like you may need more as a back up soon, woohoo 😉💪👏👏👏👏👏
First weights session in a month - went with 4kg and all good - relatively easy - will work back up to 6kg - took your point and have decided will do and upper and lower each week on top of the everyday yoga I’m doing
Hi Arlene 😀👏👏👏👏 Nice work with this! 6kg is getting so much stronger, well done on this accomplishment. Sure thing, combine the different modalities this is a great way to do it!
We took a 2 mile outdoor walk+gardening, I decided to target upper body for weights for workout. I was right with you for 3 sets*15 with 5# weights for 5 exercises. Minus fit ball, I did that one from floor (I may need to replace fit ball, it deflated fast). Thanks Vanessa 😊❤️
Great accountability here Kelly 😀🙌 Really happy with your progression to weights after putting in the efforts here for all other styles, building your fitness steadily and sustainably 😀🏆
Fantastic workout - finally did the chest flys on the fit ball - really good - did not fall off - haha - getting back to where I was at the beginning of December
Feeling so much better today - 2 short walks and then this great workout - really loved the pace - I only had 2kg weights but will definitely look for 3kg and 4kg at the op shops!
Good workout today - week 2 - biceps a(7,6,5 kgs ) for (10,12, 15 reps), triceps (6,5,4 kgs) for (10, 12, 15 reps), chest flies (6kg for 12 reps), stand up rows (6,5,4 kg ) for (10,12, 15 reps) and forward rows (7,6,5 kgs) for (10, 12, 15 reps)
This is excellent progress Arlene! 💪Getting so much stronger, wow! Loving seeing this progress. Keep it going. This will all be too easy for your soon haha. Congrats on putting in the hard efforts in past months. 🏆🏆🏆
Oh my goodness!! My shoulders and back are going to be sore tomorrow or the next day!! I used 8lb dumbbells for about 2/3 of the workout this time, dropping to 5lbs when it got too tough. GREAT workout! Short, straightforward classic moves! 👍😁
Hi Kirsten 😀👌 Great job here! Hey that's awesome with those weights! You feel the shoulders as they work in most of the moves 🙌 Glad you are mixing up the isolation plus compound videos on here, great job 🔥 Yep I love doing the classic moves too hehe. Keep up the amazing efforts!
Hi Sebastian 👋 Great to hear from you! Yep this is a good targeted one for upper body. You can increase the weight that you use over time and match this up with the lower body routine, either doing them on the same day or different days 💪😉 Good work today!
Woohoo 😀🏆👏👏👏👏👏 Go Kirsten! Excellent to hear! That is a great increase and improvement, this maybe your new minimum now 😉⚡️⚡️⚡️ Well done for building the foundations in all other routines and staying consistent 👏 👍
I really felt this today. My chest is super sore from one of the previous workouts and I've had sever burning in my shoulder, chest and trap the past few days but I got through it.
You did really well considering all of this Steph 🔥😀🏆 Do take it easy though if you have that pain! Keep an eye on that shoulder/chest/trap pain aswell. You may need to give those muscles a break for a few days. See how you but never push through bad pain 👌💯 Well done being accountable on here! Great job 👏 👏👏👏👏👏
I did this one late and with very little sleep but still really enjoyed it. Weights just feel like home. I was still able to do 20 lbs for triceps and 2*15 for rows.
Yessssss👏👏👏👏👏 That's what I want to hear Steph! Good job getting back in there with your weights. And nice work with the amount you are using! 💪😀 Proud of your efforts, keep it up!
Hi Arlene 👋 Loving your combination of these activities, well done! Do what feels right, this is a great testament to you looking after all areas of your fitness 🏆🔥
Great workout! I started off with 3kg but managed to do 1 and a bit sets before really struggling to the point of not being able to lift so I switched to 2kg and it was much better (triceps are struggle, I finished it with 1 dumbbell)
Hi there 😀🙌 Great job today! Definitely have a couple of sets on standby for all exercises 👌 You will build up over time. Do this a few times per week or try the upper and lower body routines for variety! Please do comment on each video you are doing so I can see your progress ✨️Write up any questions at all too! Looking forward to hearing how you go with the other routines on here too!
I brought my weights outside this evening to do this workout. Stuck to tens all the way through because I wanted to also really enjoy the outside while I did it.
This went by really quickly! I started to feel it in the second rep of the overhead tricep press and had to go down to 1 dumbbell and managed half of the third rep 🙈 Started to feel it more in the last rep for the others 😀
Yessss 😀🏆👌 Great job doing this today Michelle! So proud of you 👏 👏👏👏👏 Yep second one will get you in the triceps 💪 Try to complete each set even if minimal weights the second or third till you build up. Stick with it and you will breeze through in a few weeks!
After a massive day landscaping yesterday - missed my workout - then had mid week drinks to celebrate some milestones - I DID NOT want to do today’s workout. However - super glad I did - used my new 3kg weights for the first time and all exercises felt really good - especially triceps - I think I can feel individual muscles now - more defined now - couldn’t really tell which. muscles I was using previously - is this a thing?😊
Wow this is excellent progress Arlene 😀🏆🏆🏆Yes of course, feeling more muscles is definitely a thing! Really proud of your consistency 👏 ✨️ And that's great to hear you are enjoying milestones in life too 😀 Good to hear the increase of the weights, and yes keep that correct technique happening to feel more muscles. A bit more challenge is on the way, perhaps 4kg soon? 💪😀
Definitely 💯 Just sit forward in the chair, lean forward and ensure your back stays flat with abdominals in so you get the upper back muscles working correctly 👌👏👏👏👏 Let me know how you go!
Want to know something funny Angela....I was just replying to another comment 5 mins ago (not seeing yours popped up!) And then was thinking 🤔 'I wonder how Angela is going with the routines...' And then your comment popped up here into my notifications 😜🙌🔥💫 There you go, hehe. Glad to see you did this one with the stress and anxiety meditation 🧘🏻♀️ Great combo to balance out perfectly 🙌 Well done!!
Good work today Pamela😀👏👏👏👏💯 Sounds like you were working to full capacity and if you feel the weights are challenging or too easy say second or third set, go up or down for sure! Great efforts! Let me know if you are a little sore in the next day or two😉🙌👌
Whew!! Did this one with 8lb wts and switched to 5lbs only when I had to! I see last month I used only 5lbs!!.No wonder my arms feel like jello!! 🤣🤣 Love working on upper body strength!! 💪💪😁👍
Sure, yes, totally understand!! Hope the elbow is ok Arlene💪Good work pushing on and always modify using other band routines too if you need to substitute the weights ok:)
Must must must get 3kg weights - this is now a bit too easy - so added squats to biceps and triceps and leg extensions to chest flies - great to make some progress
That's what I like to hear Arlene 😀👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💪Love your extra combos there too! Woohoo! I'd get 3kg and 4kg at this point to have ready 😉 Well done on this progress of strength! This is the basis of everything 🙌💫
Wow Kirsten 🙌👌💪👏👏👏👏👏👏 Great job! Have you done the recent core + abs dumbbell routine? Let me know if you use a slightly heavier dumbbell for that too!
Sorry to hear you had an asthma flareup! Hope you are ok, do get your doctor's advice on this and ensure you are ok to push a little more 🙌⚡️ Well done on completing this and tae kwon do 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🏆 Really proud of you!
Had to take Monday and Tuesday off and move back to 6kgs because now I have tennis elbow - which I think started with 7kg weights - particularly bicep curls and upward shoulder rows - right elbow painful and cracking when I bend it
⭐️Hey friends! Grab your dumbbells to build some upper body strength here, in this beginner-friendly weights workout! 💪 Let me know how you go💯

However - super glad I did - used my new 3kg weights for the first time and all exercises felt really good - especially triceps - I think I can feel individual muscles now - more defined now - couldn’t really tell which. muscles I was using previously - is this a thing?😊
Wow this is excellent progress Arlene 😀🏆🏆🏆Yes of course, feeling more muscles is definitely a thing! Really proud of your consistency 👏 ✨️ And that's great to hear you are enjoying milestones in life too 😀 Good to hear the increase of the weights, and yes keep that correct technique happening to feel more muscles. A bit more challenge is on the way, perhaps 4kg soon? 💪😀
did this today , increased weight from 5lbs to 8 lbs per hand in some exercises felt good.
Great job Nada!! Really good to hear your ease with these routines, such a good sign and testament to your consistency:) Woohoo!
just finished this video its good, i have teakwondo workout after but not doing it because low energy due to fasting
Great to hear! Hope you are going well, loving your progress back to more energy!
Hi the last exercise for the back ....can it be done seated on the chair?
Definitely 💯 Just sit forward in the chair, lean forward and ensure your back stays flat with abdominals in so you get the upper back muscles working correctly 👌👏👏👏👏 Let me know how you go!
All done except shortened up the forward rows - back still a little sore - glad to get both lower and upper weights done on same day
Sure, sounds good Arlene 😀🙌 Your stamina has increased to be able to do upper and lower in one day! Excellent work and progress 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Did this one plus the 10 min stress and anxiety meditation one
Want to know something funny Angela....I was just replying to another comment 5 mins ago (not seeing yours popped up!) And then was thinking 🤔 'I wonder how Angela is going with the routines...' And then your comment popped up here into my notifications 😜🙌🔥💫 There you go, hehe. Glad to see you did this one with the stress and anxiety meditation 🧘🏻♀️ Great combo to balance out perfectly 🙌 Well done!!
Great upper body routine, started with 10ths, ended with 8 lbs.
Good work today Pamela😀👏👏👏👏💯 Sounds like you were working to full capacity and if you feel the weights are challenging or too easy say second or third set, go up or down for sure! Great efforts! Let me know if you are a little sore in the next day or two😉🙌👌
Did this one again and was able to increase from 8lbs to 10lbs wts for some of the exercises!! Getting stronger-- whoop- whoop!!!!!😅😅😅
Hi Kirsten 🙏🙌💪 Nice job and strength improvement 👏👏👏👏👏👏 Really proud of you! Keep it up and let me know if you need any guidance 🙌
Whew!! Did this one with 8lb wts and switched to 5lbs only when I had to! I see last month I used only 5lbs!!.No wonder my arms feel like jello!! 🤣🤣 Love working on upper body strength!! 💪💪😁👍
Great job Kirsten 🙌👏👏👏👏😀 It's getting too easy! Really proud of your efforts 💪 Haha yes the arms are getting that good burn 🔥
Nice video 😮😅😊😊😊
Finally back to upper body on Mondays but have now moved back to 5kgs -right tennis elbow and left shoulder giving me trouble.
Sure, yes, totally understand!! Hope the elbow is ok Arlene💪Good work pushing on and always modify using other band routines too if you need to substitute the weights ok:)
Must must must get 3kg weights - this is now a bit too easy - so added squats to biceps and triceps and leg extensions to chest flies - great to make some progress
That's what I like to hear Arlene 😀👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💪Love your extra combos there too! Woohoo! I'd get 3kg and 4kg at this point to have ready 😉 Well done on this progress of strength! This is the basis of everything 🙌💫
Did this one again! I used 8lbs ajj the way through!
Wow Kirsten 🙌👌💪👏👏👏👏👏👏 Great job! Have you done the recent core + abs dumbbell routine? Let me know if you use a slightly heavier dumbbell for that too!
did this today with teakwondo routine 1 was good, just lost my breath and asthma flare up during burpees , but finished both
Sorry to hear you had an asthma flareup! Hope you are ok, do get your doctor's advice on this and ensure you are ok to push a little more 🙌⚡️ Well done on completing this and tae kwon do 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🏆 Really proud of you!
Had to take Monday and Tuesday off and move back to 6kgs because now I have tennis elbow - which I think started with 7kg weights - particularly bicep curls and upward shoulder rows - right elbow painful and cracking when I bend it
Bad
Hi Kathy, what seems to be the problem? Let me know some feedback so I can work on it for next time. The word 'bad' doesn't really explain much🤷♀️
