This blog was created to help others in the process of getting fit and healthy by sharing individual observations and discussing alternative methods of handling challenging situations and choices regarding our health.
Based on what I know I developed my own dumbbell complex (see example of a complex below). The push-press is a transition move I use in the the complex to bring the weight from front to back. Here is my complex (I did 3 rounds @ 6 reps and increased from the bar only +2.5 lbs + 5.0 lbs):
High Pull
Split Squat (each leg)
Front Squat
Clean
Reverse Lunge
Push-Press
Deadlift
I need to work on speeding up the complex; I am leaving the weight the same for the next barbell workout but will increase repetitions to 8 and decrease my rest time. My dynamic warm-up is a Tabata series of 6 exercises for 4 rounds (20/10) for a good 12 minute warm-up:
Jump Squat
Hip Extension/Bridge (L/R)
Plank Walk-Up
Split Squat (L/R)
Explosive Step-Up (only as high as my stairs at home)
Overhead Squat
All of these exercises can be done at home within a space of 10 x 10 so the basement is where I will be!
