Chest, Shoulders & Triceps clocks in at 55:45. There is a long -almost 9 minute warm up, that start with cardio warm up moves before going into an extensive stretch segment. After the warm up, the workout alternates exercises  for the chest, shoulders and triceps. There are a total of 24 exercises with a water break after exercise 12.  The exercises are time based and the time varies. Please see workout sheet for the times. The thing that annoyed me about this workout was that all the chest exercises were push ups.  It was that way for the Chest & Back workout too. Is there not another chest exercise? The workout concludes with a 3 & 1/2 minute cool down and stretch. Equipment:  Push up bar, dumbbells, bands, chair 3 & 1/4 stars

Chest, Back, & Shoulders is disc 1 in the Xtrain series.  I honestly don't know the purpose of numbering the disc especially when you can purchase the workouts individually.  Anyhow, this workout clocks in at just above 51 minutes. The workout starts with a warm up. The first 1/2 of the warm up, Cathe takes you through a series of dynamic moves that were upper body focus.  The second 1/2 of the warm up, you pick up a set up light weights and then you go through a series of exercises for the upper body. So there are eight rounds.  In each round you start with a Chest exercise, this is followed with a Back exercise and then lastly a Shoulder exercise.  Then you repeat this sequence for the remaining rounds however, each of the following rounds you are doing a different exercise. or sometimes it is the same exercise with a variation such as on a incline or with tubing instead of dumbbells. Equipment used:   Stability Ball, Mat, Dumbbells, and Resista...
