Dumbells Strength Training Exercises
As requested by those who participated in my Strength Training With Dumbbells workshop, here are the different exercises I use.
Chest: bench press, side flys or a combination of the two
Back: pull ups while leaning over (one side at a time)
Shoulders: side raises, front raises, shrugs
Arms: bicep curls (standing or seated), tricep extensions
Forearms: wrist curls (seated), reverse curls (standing)
Legs: squats, lunges, calf raises
I currently do each exercise using weights that I can comfortably do ten repetitions each and I do two sets of each chest, back, arms and leg exercises while for shoulders and forearms, I do just one set. I do strength training twice per week for most of the year while during ski season, it’s once per week.
