In this workout, dumbbells are added to many of the flexion-based exercises we have been incorporating, such as crunches, leg raises, knee to chest, and several others. To target the muscles in this plane of motion, we will be loading the exercises bilaterally (both sides) to target hip, spinal, and shoulder muscles.
Experience some interesting variations on lunges, deadlifts, squats, and one-leg standing exercises using dumbbells and specific body positions to stimulate muscles to flex the torso. Any time, if you feel as though the weight makes the exercise too challenging, feel free to eliminate it.
