Dumbbell Strength Circuit

The WOW, or Workout of the Week, is a short workout that you can do on your own as an add-on to your training. These workouts are designed to be mostly equipment free (so you can do them anywhere) and of medium to high intensity. Modify as needed depending on your fitness level and intensity needs.

Short on time, but want to get some strength-y movements in?

This short compound movement strength circuit is for you then. It combines two movements per exercise, so you’re covering upper and lower body, multiple muscle groups, big muscles (like quads and lats) and smaller “sexy” muscles (like biceps and triceps).

You’ll do 10 repetitions of each exercise. Rest at the end of your first round and then repeat for two more rounds.

Here are the exercises:

• Curl and Press
• Squat to Alternating Forward Lunge (Squat Lunge Lunge counts as one rep)
• Bent Over Row to Tricep Kickback
• Squat to Alternating Lateral Lunge (Squat Lung Lunge counts as one rep)
