Below, Lynn has outlined a month-long dumbbell challenge as part of ourMovement of the Month Clubfor July 2024.
In general, weight training improves overall stability, muscle gain and injury prevention.
Youll also see an increase in your cardiovascular health!
Plus, dumbbell exercises can helpcorrect muscle imbalances, as each limb works independently.
This can lead to better body mechanics and reduced injury risk.
The goal is to really get your form down for each of these moves.
Then, youll finish the week with a workout combining all the moves on Sunday.
