I had a lot to do and little time to do it, but I did not want to skip my workout today. Instead, I performed the 2-move full-body workout below:
Dumbbell Squat to Press and Dumbbell Burpee are effective full-body exercises that target multiple muscle groups:
1. Dumbbell Squat to Press 💪?️♀️
This exercise combines a squat with an overhead press, working multiple muscle groups:
? Start with feet shoulder-width apart, holding dumbbells at shoulder height
?️♀️ Squat down, keeping your back straight and chest up
🚀 As you stand, press the dumbbells overhead
🔄 Lower dumbbells back to shoulders as you squat again
It targets:
? Legs (quads, hamstrings, glutes)
💪 Shoulders and arms
? Core for stability
2. Dumbbell Burpee (Modified for Low Impact) 🏃♂️?️♀️
This full-body exercise combines strength and cardio:
?♂️ Start standing with dumbbells by your sides
🙇♂️ Lower dumbbells to the floor, bending your knees
? Step back into a plank position (instead of jumping for low impact)
💪 Perform a push-up
🚶♂️ Step forward to return to standing
?️♀️ Lift dumbbells to shoulder height and press overhead
It works:
? Legs
💪 Arms and shoulders
? Core
❤ Cardiovascular system
Both exercises provide an efficient full-body workout, improving strength and endurance.
