Raise the Bar: 20 Minute Full Body Workout with a Bar

You don’t need an hour to put in good work.

Grab a bar, give yourself 20 minutes, and let’s get moving.

I’m using a 35-pound curved bar for this full body workout. If you usually reach for dumbbells, here’s why I want you to try something different. With dumbbells, each arm controls its own weight and can move independently. With a bar, both hands share one connected load.

That changes how you coordinate the movement and manage the weight.

The curved sections also give you an angled grip, which some people fond more comfortable for curls and presses. Choose a grip that lets your wrists stay comfortably aligned.

Neither tool wins.

Training with both gives you more ways to challenge your muscles and develope control.

The Workout:

4 Rounds of all 6 exercises. Take a short break in between each exercise 20-30 seconds only.

3/4 Burpees x12

Deadlifts x12

Alternating Lunges-Shoulder Press x12

Push-ups x12

Bicep Curls x12

Plank Jacks x12

Set your timer for 20 minutes. Repeat the circuit, rest when you need to, and keep your form in charge. Try and complete 4 Rounds within that 20 minutes.

Use a weight you can press with control. My 35 pounds doesn’t have to be your 35 pounds.

Enjoy!!
