HIIT the New Year Hard: Workout 4: Full Body Standing Dumbbell Workout
Standard
Please follow and like us:
Hi Everyone!
Today’s workout is a full body routine that utilizes dumbbells. I alternated between 12 and 20 lb dumbbells. You want to select an appropriate weight that you can use to increase the challenge, while also maintaining appropriate form for each exercise.
Anytime you use weights you want to make sure you are completing the exercise in the full range of motion, and with appropriate form. Control the movement of the weight throughout the exercise, going both up and down. Using weights can help you achieve your weight loss goal, and sculpt lean muscle. Lean Muscle=Higher Metabolism.
I went through this workout once, and paired it with a 4.25 mile run outside. We are having unseasonably warm weather, so I took advantage of it and ran in the sunshine.
You can find today’s Bonus Workout move on Instagram: Here (@BenderFitness). I am posting a different Bonus Workout move every day this month. My DietBet Challenge just started. If you want to join you can do that here: www.dietbet.com/BenderFitness. The pot is over $16,300 now, and everyone who hits their weight loss goal splits the pot. I hope you enjoy today’s workout!

I love work outs with weights please make more of these!!!
This was a great workout! I like especially the last move – very challenging. And I am always happy when I see curtsy lunges in your workouts, they are one of my favorite 🙂
I’m seeing changes in my body and it’s only been day 4 of your boot camp workout! lost 1.5kg already and love my shape already! Thank you so much for your challenging workouts! 🙂
Loving this bootcamp series to get back on the wagon, did this after a 60 min cardio session (run/walk outside). All muscles feel sufficiently like jello now. Thank you!

Ok, this workout was my punishment for indulging in too many chips – way harder than it looks. Enjoyed it (the workout, not the chips). Thanks!
Another one down. I have tried a variety of workout apps, ebooks, and websites, but you seem the most challenging. Thanks for your workouts.
