5 Dumbbell Moves You Have Never Tried Before
Strength training is the key to recording good, smooth muscles and greatly improving your metabolism to get lasting results. We know that weights can be a little scary, but we're here to show you that amazing results don't require a ton of tools or a room to weigh - you just need dumbbells. Today, we share five dumbbell movements that you have never tried before. This rapid process works throughout the body.
Take 5 to 10 pounds of dumbbells and do this. Go through the next round three times.
1. Single Leg Deadlift & Row: Tone Your Booty, Back and Core
Stand with feet apart the width of the hip, holding the dumbbell in each hand on the sides and palms facing inwards. Move your weight on your left foot, slightly bent knee, and lift your right foot a few inches from the floor. With a flat back, hold on to the hips as you lower your torso down. Reach the dumbbells on your feet as your right leg stretches straight behind you. To keep your balance, pull the dumbbells up to your chest, elbows wider. Lower the dumbbells and grab your loot and spine as you reach the stand. Do it 15 times on each side.
2. Plie Squat & Pulse: Straighten Your Inner Pants and Booty
Start by holding a dumbbell in each hand at chest height while standing with feet slightly opener than the width of the hip separated from the toes. Keep your spine long and chest straight, lower it straight down until your thighs are as flat on the ground as possible. Drive up two inches, then down two inches before driving on your heels to get back into position. Do it 15 times.
3. Women Makers: Hold Your Complete Body And Renew Your Metabolism
Stand with feet apart the width of the hip and dumbbell in each hand. Go down to the wooden floor by planting dumbbells on the floor, palms facing each other, and crossing your legs behind you. If your spine is tight and the hips are square at the bottom, draw the right dumbbell up to the height of the chest, keeping your elbow attached close to your body. Turn the right dumbbell down, then repeat on the left side. Jump on both legs back and forth with your hands and stand up. Repeat 15 times.
4. Side Plank & Oblique Twist: Tone Your Oblique And Shoulder
Start at the side of the plank with your right arm planted firmly down and your left hand holding the dumbbell down in front of you. For extra stability, you can move your legs by placing your upper foot in front of the floor. To engage your spine and keep the dumbbell as close to your body as possible, raise your left arm straight up. For control, lower the dumbbell back down and twist it directly under your body. Go back to the starting point. Do it 15 times on each side.
