The ONLY Dumbbell Workout That You NEED (FULL BODY) 

👏

awesome, thanks!

It's a solid workout although I think it's missing a vertical pull and a hip hinge movement so I'd add in pull ups and DB romanian deadlifts. Then all the basic movement patterns are covered. I would swap walking lunges for bulgarian split squats too because it doesn't require as much room to perform and you can overload your legs with more weight.

@@lukebullen705 Judging from your profile picture, you probably know your way around working out lol. So my question is, if you would recommend this workout, I added an exercise for calves.

Thanks

If you want a most efficient version of those, check the 5x5 stronglifts dumbbell variation called Quarantine. Also 1min rest in very old information, study have shown that you need min 2mn, best 3min to rest for best efficiency and muscle grow. Happy workout o/

​@@lukebullen705thank you so much

Yep. I've watched a ton of a videos and I mean a ton and this is by far the most practical, most useful and most affordable full body workout

@@orack6355would u say this is a good workout to do 5 x 5?

👍🏽That part!

Indeed. Very encouraging!

Thanks bro

Thanks

Thanks saves my time from actually watching the whole video lol

@@eyksz668might still wanna watch so you get correct form👍

Thnks a lot

Started as well with 20 lb. on Monday... let's see if this really works.

Doing the same with 15 good luck

Do you guys have a discord? It'd be nice if we could keep each other updated more regularly

@@temontshekisang9825 been doin this workout for a couple weeks, whats your discord, would love to compare and give updates

Good results?

hey nice! After almost a year how do you think it has helped you? Any noticeable changes in appearance and overall strength?

Lavern haha yeah it would have been nice to know but anyway I’ve been doing these exercises since August 5th consistently and noticed some changes. Will report back on the 3rd month.

HigashiBashi me too

@@HigashiBashi Status?

@@aaronstone21 yeah been doing it for 6 months consistently. Added extra exercises to flesh out the basic set in the video. Works very well. You def need more lower body stuff but upper body gets you far with his list. Key is diet though. Must cut out the shit you eat and you will be killing it in 6 months time.

Same. My gracilis felt like it was gonna snap.

how much weight

be careful with lunges you can get a hernia and the way he shows you it's a risk on your knees too. For a safer alternative try different squat variations instead.

So instead of lunges just do squats?

@@artyb7696 Yes squats always safer for beginners and in general for everyone really. And once that gets easy, do single leg squats. Much safer than the lunges. And still great exercise for your entire lower body. Only people that really should be messing with lunges are people who do a sport where lunging is a common movement, such as Fencing or Squash for example. And they train their bodies from young age to be conditioned for that particular movement. Though they have to deal with the injuries and risks that come with that. Doesn't mean you have to as well.

I agree, I'm seeing lately so many weird movements, which I think would cause injury than muscles. Apparently coaches are running out of ideas and want to be creative by coming up with weird movements.

You should try to incorporate your other muscle groups individually more than shown in the video, if you do this program for long enough you’ll gain a muscle imbalance that is hard to fix

​​@@reekokrosswhat type of imbalances? What muscle groups are being neglected? Also why are they hard to fix?

@reekokross@@maxkeylo7625 I was about to ask the same questions. It's a full body workout and I'm not looking to be jacked. just casual beach bod muscle with low fat. I actually started with bad muscle imbalance on these lifts and that has been fixed. As far as other muscle groups I am not sure what those would be...

@@maxkeylo7625 No clue what he's talking about.

@@chuck2703 no calves at all, lower chest is underutilized, no forearms at all, zero core or abs etc

is there like a playlist for those episodes?

David DeBergh.... Where are these episodes you're referring to?

HELL YES!!!!

You go girl!👧

Daaaaaaam! Great job

Did,thanks ! still there (the headache) but I think it is a posture/form issue, working on it, thanks.@The Right Wing Archives

I think he was doing 15 pound dumbells

@@kaiw.s6053 I think you are right, also in the last few weeks,, tucking the chin in and a straight posture have diminished the headaches ,all basic I know, just wanted to make sure it made a difference before replying.Thanks!(getting old sucks) LOL !

Respect!

Jheeez

1 minute ​@@beef_burgers

how's the journey going?

Any results?

Any results?

3 days a week for ex Monday, Wednesday and Thursday or Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday?

wow that's AMAZING

Keep it up

Keep it up brother!

@@michaelsanders7484 Thank you! Still going strong!

Good luck, you are not on your own on this. Keep us updated on your progress.

Looking forward to a progress update

I am crazy about dumbell, my heart always same repetition. You have to repeat this so it can be effective scratch expersize, in order to get better. Remeber to repeat everyday the same.

Whats going with you

Updates? Thanks man!

Yes .. u may be putting it just straight that's why

Same!

Do you have space for the walking lunges? If you dont what do you do instead?

Malachy Donaghy turn around and do it the other way. So 5 walking to the right, then 5 walking to the left.

GLAD YOU LIKED!

what is your alternative exercise then?

tev TheImpact water swole though

You can use a bed aswell

Use a dead tree and be a badass

Lay on the floor you still gonna hit chest a bit Shoulder blades close and down

Good thing I have a bench at home

You have to be stupid. The title states “ the only dumbbell workout you’ll ever need” not dumbbell only workout lol

I second this. Did you get any good results from this one?

How many times a week do you do it? Is it the same exercises for 6 weeks?

If your bilateral movement is strong and you'd rather work on a squat pattern. Then I don't see the problem in doing so. Also 3 sets of lunges for an entire leg workout isn't much even if I'm doing it 3 days a week. So if you want do both. And on some days do more squats and other days do more lunges. However I wouldn't do too many sets for either. Try to keep the volume a bit lower than you would if you only hit legs once or twice a week.

did it work?

@@joswood6123 Yea it does bud I've been stuck with this workout for a few months already and noticed huge gains in my back muscular and my shoulders, can't see any gains in triceps tho.

@@user-bu8bo5gc4v alr thanks

Yes but you have to tell us how much you work at home. You need to repeat the heart core repetions , so we better understand what is your level in dumbell repetions. How many repetions can you make ? 100 dumbell? Maybe the heart core repetions will enhance your heart repetions in exercising the way you dumbell look well.

20kg I find is a good weight

More power to u ❤️

Hell yeah man, that’s awesome

I hope your illness will get cured from the bottom of my heart, excuze my repetiyions as I have also mental retardation and my vocabulary have 300 words only but heart is my favorite repetions as I have no ideea how to talk. I am at the level of a child of an age 3 years old and I repeat my self heart, mental illness, mental retardation. In my mental illness I belive I am attracting people with my shit talk. I am mental delayed. I cant talk normal. I belive I am fanny ...

Jay Bird Good luck Jay!

Yes. Once you keep progressing and adding weight, you will see results. Obviously the resukts might be slower that training 3 times a week....but any weight training is better than NO weight training.

I didn't say training 2 times a week wasnt any good. In my opening response I said that you can train twice a week, no problem. It actually might be beneficial to some people. All I was pointing out was that training 3 times a week might offer just a bit more, not just in muscle growth, but also in keeping your immune system and metabolism at a higher level. But dont get hung up on it.....just go train twice a week and see where it takes you. The most important thing is that you work out with good technique in the beginning rather than worrying about how many times to train. A guy training once a week with good technique will fare out better than someone training four times a week with bad technique. So train as nuch as you can with good technique around your life's schedule. It will certainly give you large benefits than not training at all and just talking about it. You can also compromise between the two as well. If you workout and take 2 days rest, then workout and take 2 days rest again and keep that going.....you will get 3 workouts in one week and two in the following week.

No, im not the guy in the video. I doubt if that guy will reply to you after posting the video a year ago. Maybe he will to "professionally" answer your questions for you. Im only posting my own experiences. Im not a "qualified" person as such. So if its your first time using dumbbells I would advice you from my own experiences to learn from a qualified person first. Also what is not stated in this video, before you even train at all, get medical clearance to do so. My own experiences are this and you can determine from it if you want to follow my advice or not. I am 59 years old and about 5 years ago I had open heart surgery due to years of neglecting and abusing my body. Two years after the surgery when I was fully mended, I started weight training. I tried many different routines and found full body 3 times a week to be most practical and beneficial to me. I have lost 70lbs of fat in 5 years and gained a nice toned body. But its not all down to the workout. A good diet, not abusing the body, proper sleep, less stress and cardio like cycling and walking plays a major role in achieving my health as well. Strength training is only one component in my wellbeing, but a very important one. I just did a full body routine today based on this one but with a few tweaks to have more emphasis on legs/glutes/core because in his video and with most full body routines, out of a total of 21 sets, only 3 sets are dedicated to the engine of your body and in my opinion, it does not make sense to have 6 sets for your arms and only 3 sets for the engine room of your body. I literally reversed that without making it too tough. Goblet Squats x 2 sets (quads) Shoulder Press x 3 sets Row to stiff deadlift x3 sets (hams and back) Press on Stability Ball x3 sets Hammer curls x2 sets Tricep skullcrusher on Stability Ball x 2 sets Walking Lunges x2 sets (hams/quads) Calves Raises x 2sets I have more leg work in my workout and more core due to using a stability ball instead of a bench. I also have one more exercise, but I also have less sets and the workout is slightly shorter as a result. I dont feel the need for 3 sets for isolation curls or triceps if your doing them 3 times a week, but you might need them if you do two workouts a week. Hope this helps.

Maybe you might need to talk to your doctor about it. I dont know about you, but I have to be realistic too. Take that guy in the video for instance, even if I was old as him and didnt have testosterone troubles, he's probably training nearly 20 years to get to where he is and for me to expect to get to the same place in 3 years, im deluding myself. Then throw in the fact that im about 20 years older than him, have major health issues, then id be very deluded if I thought id be like him after 3 years of effort. So I just focus on doing it for health, and whatever my body will be....will be. But I tell you this.....its a damn sight better than when I was abusing it and im delighted at where im at.

Do you feel any burn in your abs if I may ask?

@@KatjaNX Yes I am feeling a lot. But I am focusing more on my Muscle Building than Abs.

@@naveenkumarcena9385 aight thanks, and good luck!

Kat La Diosa hi

De nada lol!

Dumbell couldnt be more innovative work, it is about repetions and the relase is also mindfullness help the heart to improve the mental condition in repetions. What a nightmare .

there are several reasons why not to do the dumbell fly, and most of them are based around protecting the health of your body, joints and muscles. I would also not do his recommended triceps exercise or his recommended shoulder press technique for the same reasons. With the shoulder press, you want your elbows forward more and begin with them tucked in against your body and do straight up, don't hang them out like he does, that's asking for trouble. With the Triceps you are better off lying down on the ground and doing two variations. One start like a bench press at the top, and simply bend at the elbow towards your chest and back out. The other you bend straight down to the side of your head. Keep the elbow in the same position and just bend the elbow only. Come to think of it, even the lunge exercise he showed is not great, because stability issues and unnecessary risk on the knees.

@@LovingTinha thank you x2. Ive been doing the dumbbell press with my elbows out as wide as what he showed
