Skipping

flick around body, jump to clear. Intensify with double unders—rope passes twice per jump. Efficient cardio: 10 mins = 30 min jog.

Dumbbell squat

Legs apart, head up, back straight. Squat, dumbbells close to floor. Knees over toes, chest out, no arching or leaning. Exhale, stand up.

Lateral raise

Hold dumbbells, lift to shoulder height, resist swinging, lower slowly. Build muscle by fighting gravity, not letting it do the work.

Burpees

Squat, palms on floor, kick feet back, jump feet in, jump up, repeat.

Plyometric

Lunge, jump, repeat. Cushion impact, protect joints

Bicep curl

Curl dumbbells, squeeze biceps, lower and repeat. Keep elbows still, focus on lower arm movement. Shoulder-level lift, controlled descent

Plank

Planks are core exercises that prevent spinal pressure, avoid strange abs, and build a flat, injury-free six-pack.

Dumbbell floor press

Build a bigger chest and avoid shoulder injuries with restricted movement exercises. Perfect for aspiring bench bros in the gym!

Bench dips

"Face away from bench, grip shoulder-width, extend legs. Lower body by bending elbows to 90° angle. Lift with triceps to start."

Crunch

Lie flat on your back, knees bent at 90 degrees. Lift shoulders off floor, keep lower back down. Tighten abs, return to start position.
