DAILY WORKOUT
10-Minutes
Every Minute: 6-8 Dumbbell Deadlifts + 6-8 Alternating V-Ups
WORKOUT DESCRIPTION
This 10-minute EMOM targets full-body strength and core endurance with a focus on posterior chain activation (dumbbell deadlifts) and abdominal/core work (alternating V-ups). Both exercises should be done within the same minute, pushing your strength and core stability under time constraints.
DIRECTIONS
Set a timer for 10 minutes. You will complete both movements within the same minute for 10 rounds. Rest until the top of the next minute.
Every Minute:
6-8 Dumbbell Deadlifts
6-8 Alternating V-Ups
Repeat for 10 rounds.
You will do a total of 60-80 reps of each exercise.
BEGINNER VERSION
Dumbbell Deadlifts: Reduce reps to 4-6. Use lighter dumbbells or perform bodyweight good mornings for a reduced intensity.
Alternating V-Ups: Reduce reps to 4-6 per side or perform bent-leg V-ups for easier modification.
SCALE/MODIFY
Dumbbell Deadlifts: Use a lighter weight or opt for bodyweight Romanian deadlifts if necessary.
Alternating V-Ups: Perform regular sit-ups or substitute with leg raises if V-ups are too challenging.
Resting: Take short breaks between each round if necessary, but aim to keep the intensity high and avoid prolonged rest.
TIPS
Dumbbell Weight: Select a weight that challenges you but allows for proper form throughout. Avoid overloading, especially if you're doing both movements back-to-back.
Core Engagement: Focus on controlling the movement in the V-ups, and make sure to engage your core for stability during the deadlifts.
Pacing: Focus on steady pacing and form rather than speed. A consistent effort for the entire 10 minutes is more beneficial than rushing through reps.
Breathing: Breathe out during the exertion phase of each movement—exhaling as you lift the dumbbells in the deadlifts and as you raise your torso during the V-ups.

Form: Keep the movements controlled. If you feel fatigued, take short breaks but aim to keep the pace steady.
Pacing: While it’s tempting to go fast, aim for a sustainable pace to maintain good form throughout the workout. You’ll get more out of the workout by keeping consistent effort rather than rushing.
Consistency: Keep track of how many rounds and reps you completed in the 10 minutes. Push to finish all 6 rounds, but if you need to, break up the rounds into smaller chunks and work through them steadily.
