Exercise Descriptions – Workout #1
Disclaimer:
You must have a Certified Personal Trainer (CPT) or Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) provide you with instruction on correct form for all exercises.
Dumbbell Squat
• Stand with your feet just greater than shoulder-width apart.
• Start the movement at the hip joint. Push your hips backward and “sit back into a chair”. Make your hips go back as far as possible.
• Squat as deep as possible, but keep your low back tensed in a neutral position.
• Push with your glutes, hamstrings, and quadriceps to return to the start position.
• For the dumbbell squat, hold a dumbbell in each hand on the outside of your legs.
• Do NOT round your lower back. I am not letting my back round in the photo.
DB Chest Press
• Hold the dumbbells above your chest with your palms turned toward your feet.
• Lower the dumbbells to chest level. Press the dumbbells straight up above the chest.
