Full Body Dumbbell Workout

This full body dumbbell workout takes about thirty minutes (and that includes a lot of exercise breakdowns in the video).  It starts with heavier leg work coupled with plyometrics, then moves into Compound Exercises that will work both your upper and lower body, before we finally move to the floor to work our glutes and core.  The workout decreases in intensity as the workout goes on.  Sounds good, right?

Pulling Exercises Strength Training Routine

This is the second part of the push/pull split.   This is your pulling exercises strength training routine!

Pulling Exercises generally utilize the hamstrings, back and biceps and this workout will hit all of those muscles.   You will need various weighted dumbbells for this workout, and I recommend using a minimum of 15 lbs (each, so a total of 30 lbs) for your legs.  I will note my weights below.

Pushing Exercises Strength Training Routine

There are many ways to structure a strength training routine. As part of the week long fitness challenge I decided to structure it with a “push” routine and a “pull” routine so that you won’t be giving one set of muscles a rest while working the others.  This is your pushing exercises strength training routine!

Pushing Exercises generally utilize the quadriceps, glutes, shoulders, chest and triceps, and this workout will hit all of those muscles.   You will need various weighted dumbbells for this workout, and I recommend using a minimum of 15 lbs (each, so a total of 30 lbs) for your legs.  I will note my weights below.
