5 Great Workout w/ Dumbbells & Bodyweight

 Below are three workouts that you can give a try and all you need is a pair of dumbbells and a small space on the floor.

[Print these off]

WORKOUT #1
Do each exercise in order with no rest, and without putting the weight down. Aim for a fast, controlled pace with a smooth transition between exercises. At the end of the circuit, rest for 60 seconds. Repeat for 4 rounds:

A) DB Swing Through Lunge - 7 reps
B) DB Pushups - 7 reps
C) DB Squats - 7 repsD) DB Overhead Press - 7 reps

WORKOUT #2

A) DB Bent over row x 8
B) DB Front Squats x 8
C) DB Curtsy Squat x 8
D) DB Squat Thrust to Deadlift x 8
E) DB Push Ups x 8

You might be thinking, "Hey, this looks like a strength training workout." The exercises in the complex are based on traditional resistance training movements that use a number of major muscle groups at the same time.

More muscles used = higher intensity.


Instructions: Complete two to four rounds of the following circuit, working for 30 seconds, and then resting for 30 seconds after each exercise (if you’re working hard enough, trust me, you’ll want and cherish that rest).
WORKOUT #5
Equipment: Nothin’ but your bodyweight and a single stair or low box.
Exercises:
-Triceps Pushup
-Skater Jump
-Flutter Kick
-Box Dance Step (demonstrated at the 19-second mark HERE, and labeled as Switch Foot Hops; if you don’t have access to a stair, sprint in place)
-Knee-to-Elbow Plank
-In-and-Out Squat
BOOM! I'll tell you now that these workouts are really fun and very challenging if you push yourself. That means, you MUST make sure that you choose a weight on workouts #1 and #2 that is going to challenge you the entire time. 

If the workout is too easy, that means the weight your are using is not challenging enough so bump it up. 

Now, I got these workouts from my friend Kate Vidulich and these workouts are very similar to what you will find in her brand new Fat Loss Accelerators 2.0 Program

It was brutal to say the least. And again, super fun!

That's what really stands out to me about Kate's new program is that she is there to coach you through every single workout on the program.
