The best part? You dont even have to step foot inside a gym. Yep, you read that right. As long as you have access to a dumbbell, you can do this workout in your bedroom, your living room, your office-anywhere and everywhere you can think of. (Dont have a dumbbell on hand? We like this one from CAP Barbell.)
And its quick. If you have 10 minutes-which, lets be real, you definitely do-you can complete this arm-burner. Maybe you tack it onto your lunch break. Or maybe you just wake up 10 minutes earlier. Either way, youll feel energized and ready to tackle your to-do list.
So how do you do it? Read on, or watch the video above.
First, perform 30 seconds worth of crush curls . To do this, hold the dumbbell horizontally with your palms on each end. Then curl with both arms simultaneously.
Next, perform 30 seconds worth of close-grip pushups on the dumbbell. Lay your dumbbell horizontally on the ground, hold onto each end of it, and do your pushups.
After you do both of those exercises, rest for 20 seconds. Thats one round. To reap this workouts maximum benefits, do five rounds.
