I find it very good with dumbbells. I like doing exercises with them. I have a 5kg pair, 10 kg pair and a 12.5 kg pair.
I have changed my schedule. I do a complete workout with dumbbells. And then followed by a walking and jogging.
Two years back I had 23% body fat. After the gym, my fat got reduced to 18%. My protein increased by 5%. My aim is to reduce fat to 10% or less.
My present exercising using a 12.5kg and a 10 kg dumbbells are :-
Bench press, Dumbbell squats, Dumbbell heel raises, Bent over lifts, One arm rows with a bench (not workbench), One dumbbell legs and hands arching lying down for abs, Shoulder lifts, Biceps curls, Triceps back lifts. 3 sets each using prime number reps.
I am usually exhausted with this. But I do a 25 minute of jogging resulting in about 300 calories loss after this grueling dumbbells workout.
Recently, I saw Youtube videos of exercises which can reduce fat with light dumbbells and there was another one without dumbbells. The crux here is to do one exercises after another each done for 10 reps. Do three to four sets of these 10 reps of about 4 to 5 exercises. You will be exhausted with this and I feel it will increase the stamina. The exercises are like 10 squats, 10 push ups, 10 overhead claps, 10 leg raises lying down etc. Do three to four repetitions of these without any break between them.
Many masters say bench press, dead lifts, squats and shoulder lifts are the most important of dumbbells/ barbells exercises. These exercises seem to be standard core exercises and improves the strength of the body.
I intend to do the four exercises more often. To build strength. Also twice a week I intend to do 10-10-10 routines to improve my stamina.
