File this workout under the simple but deadly category. Collectively, these 3 routines were a game-changer for developing my lower body, shredding fat, and improving cardio conditioning. And though they are more lower body-intensive, the holding positions hammer your upper body, especially the sh...
This workout is from Bulgarian with love. Actually, please don’t blame the Bulgarians… this one’s on me. Haha. This is one of the most challenging dumbbell workouts I’ve done in a while. A pair of 25-pounders absolutely crushed my soul. Start light and slowly build from there. It’s ideal to use t...

WORKOUT 4 also uses drop sets but with a single dumbbell at a time for more of a unilateral emphasis to correct imbalances between sides. In general, I recommend the lighter bell be half the weight of the heavier one. Most trainees will find the sweet spot somewhere in between a 20/10-pound and 5...

Start with a pair of 10-25 pound dumbbells and slowly build up from there. Since there's a little rest time between m...

In general, I recommend the lighter pa...
