Full body dumbbell workouts are the best, don’t you think?
One reason is that you can tighten and tone your entire body in a short period of time. Another reason is that you only need 2 dumbbells for all of these full body exercises!
That makes a perfect scenario for the busy woman that wants to get a quick and effective home workout in before they start their busy day.
Does that sound like you? Well then you’re gonna want to check out this 15 minute full body dumbbell workout that will tone your abs, arms, shoulders, legs, back, and booty! Which is pretty much everything!
I’ll keep this short but I wanted to provide a few extra tips to help you get the most out of this full body dumbbell workout…
1. Stretch and warm up your muscles
Going hard on cold muscles is not a good idea. Take a couple extra minutes to get your heart rate up and loosen up the muscles and joints. Do some jumping jacks, jog in place, shake those arms out, and do some light stretching before you get into it.
2. Focus on the muscle you want to work
No matter what muscle group you are trying to work, really focus on that specific muscle so that is what stays engaged and that’s what’s doing most of the work.
This takes some practice but when you do this, you’ll notice a much deeper burn in those muscles and get a much more effective workout.
3. Listen to your body
Even though this workout gives you a specific number of reps for each full body exercise, you need to respect your body. Here’s what I mean.
If a certain exercise just doesn’t feel right then you need to modify it or even replace it with something you are comfortable with.
Same goes for number of reps. If the number of reps listed for each exercise it too much for you then cut them back to a number that makes you work a little bit but not push you over the edge. And if this number of reps is too easy, then you should add more reps, or more weight, or even have more strict form.
4. Fuel your body after your workout
After a hard workout, you need to give your body the fuel that it needs to recover. If you don’t you’re not going to get the best results out of your workouts.
Feed your muscles and help to keep that metabolism going strong with some protein powder right after your workout!
5. Continue the hard work with a program
Don’t just do this workout and forget about it working for the next two weeks. Make taking care of your body a priority. That could be dedicating 30 minutes for workouts 4 days a week. As long as you can be consistent!
And let me tell you a little secret…quick fixes DON’T WORK!
I’m not about that life! Making a lifestyle change is the only way you’re going to see long term results sista!
Use this workout to give you a little jumpstart then get some structure in your in your healthy lifestyle.
