Pump you up: Exercise with dumbbells
The CrossFit phenomenon has proven what Rocky Balboa always knew: You don’t need an expensive gym or sophisticated equipment to get in shape.
“A set of dumbbells and a willingness to use them can work wonders,” says Robert Freed, D.O., an orthopedic surgeon at Mayo Clinic Health System in Mankato, Minnesota
If you’re willing (and able) to get pumped up, try these basic, but effective, moves for beginners. The video includes:
- Bent over row
- Biceps curl
- Calf raise
- Chest press
- Reverse fly
- Squat
- Triceps extension
