The Creation of Superior Dumbbell Workout

The True Potential Of Dumbbell Training

By Coach Eddie Lomax

Superior Dumbbell Workout is my second Training eBook, Workout Without Weights being the first. (Check out my Squidoo page about Workout Without Weights) After teaching people how to get fit, lose weight and build muscle WITHOUT equipment, using dumbbells was the next logical step.

Plus, there is one big similarity between bodyweight calisthenics exercise and dumbbell training that I wanted to address. They both are training methods readily available to everyone, but ignored completely or poorly used!

I have hardly met anyone who uses dumbbells to their full potential! A problem I aim to change!

There was one more reason…

I love using Kettlebells (a Russian weight that looks like a cannon ball with a handle), and wanted something that resembled this type of weighted training. Unfortunately, Kettlebells are just not available in Chile where I am currently living with my wife.

This made me realize most people are just like me. They may have heard of Kettlebells (or maybe this is the first time?), but only have access to dumbbells. Therefore, I wanted to help people get the most out of their dumbbell training.

So, after getting fit and strong from my bodyweight workouts, I bought a pair of adjustable dumbbells and got to work.

The goal?

Create a dumbbell workout that incorporates Kettlebell program design into a step-by-step PLAN for fitness, fat loss and physique building using ONLY a pair of dumbbells. I set out to create a Superior Dumbbell Workout than what almost everyone was currently using.

The result?

One POWERFUL dumbbell training program!

-I organized Grinding "Slow" Lifts into a Super Set training program that builds strength and muscle in all the right places!

-I grouped Explosive "Quick" Lifts into Timed Circuits that boost power, skyrocket heart and lung power and burns off a ton of fat!

-I combined Grinding Lifts and Quick Lifts into a Peripheral Heart Action training program that simultaneously improves fitness, builds muscle, strips off fat AND requires no extra "cardio" for unmatched cardiorespiratory endurance!

-Plus, I added Dumbbell Combo Matrixes with 6 different workout strategies to leave absolutely nothing out of this dumbbell training program!

Take a good look at the above points. Does your dumbbell workout look anything like this? Probably not, right?

That's because what I created is a Superior Dumbbell Workout!

Use Dumbbells To Their TRUE Potential! 

More Muscle, Less Fat And Fitness You Can USE Is Sure To Follow!

Superior Dumbbell WorkoutHere are 5 reasons you should perform a dumbbell workout program:

Dumbbells allow you to perform a greater variety of exercises than other exercise equipment. A dumbbell workout program uses single limb, double limb and alternating limb exercises.

Dumbbells are safer than barbells for some exercises. Some of the Olympic lift variations and step-ups come to mind. These exercises can safely be a part of your dumbbell workout program, where you might not include them in other forms of training.

Dumbbells allow you to use more weight for certain exercises, when using one limb at a time. As hard as it is to believe, if you can press 100 pounds over head with a barbell, you'll be able to press more than 50 pounds with one hand. A dumbbell workout program uses more weight for more size and more strength!

Dumbbells require more muscular control and recruitment of the core muscles because of their increased demand on balance. You can simultaneously get a great abdominal and core workout in while performing dumbbell exercises. A dumbbell workout program builds a rock solid core for a leaner waist and greater athletic performance.

Dumbbells can be use for building muscle AND blasting off unwanted fat. The rhythmic exercises you perform during a dumbbell workout program helps to build strong lungs and heart, without extra cardio. This ups calorie expenditure and burns more fat!

When you combine dumbbells into a comprehensive training program, you don't need any other equipment. You don't need barbells. You don't need weight machines. You don't even need any "cardio" equipment.

You can get all the fitness, muscle building, fat loss and cardiorespiratory endurance BENEFITS from dumbbells!

Stop using dumbbells as "secondary exercises", and start using dumbbells to their true potential today!

How Kettlebell Training Influenced The Creation of the Superior Dumbbell Workout 

Effective Kettlebell Program Design Used With Dumbbells!

KettlebellHave your heard about Kettlebells yet?

Kettlebells are basically a cast iron ball with a handle... and have been used by Russians and strongmen across the world for centuries.

Spearheaded by top fitness trainers and coaches like Pavel Tsatsouline, Anthony Diluglio, Steve Maxwell, Mike Mahler, Steve Cotter and many others, the kettlebell has made its way into mainstream fitness training.

And this barbaric looking training tool is brutally effective.

Quite frankly, I can understand the newfound appreciation for the kettlebell, in a certain way, it is down right sexy!

Here are some benefits of kettlebell training:

- The shape and handle of the kettlebell stimulates the muscles differently than other forms of weight training and you must apply a different kind of leverage to lift it properly.

- The thick handle of the kettlebell builds vice like grip strength.

- Many of the popular kettlebell lifts are similar to Olympic Lifts, excellent for developing explosive strength from the core and hips out to the extremities.

- High rep kettlebell drills are excellent for cardiorespiratory development and fat loss.

- Most of the exercises only require ONE kettlebell, meaning it is extremely portable and convenient, just take it with you wherever you go and you have the capability to perform an extremely effective full body workout.

- Many kettlebell lifts combine strength and flexibility, developing more strength over a greater range of motion.

- Most of the kettlebell exercises are performed one limb at a time, requiring more muscle control and balance to complete the lift.

- Lifting two kettlebells at a time, in an alternating fashion or one limb at a time strengthens the stabilizer muscles, providing a strong base from which to exert force.

... and there are many others.

But What About The Dumbbell?

While the benefits of kettlebell training are impressive, and can greatly fortify any well rounded fitness training program, the dumbbell provides similar benefits, and in some cases offers greater variety.

Unfortunately, the dumbbell is one of the most underused or misused pieces of equipment in most gyms.

The bodybuilding mentality of breaking the body into isolated muscles and training those muscles separately has reduced the usefulness of the dumbbell down to some kind of "toning tool" only used to perform dumbbell curls, presses and flies.

Until now, that is!

Combining Kettlebell Program Design With The Effectiveness And Accessibility Of Dumbbells!

Dumbbell training can be traced back to the ancient Greeks, and dumbbells have been a useful tool for self improvement ever since.

And think of it this way, dumbbells and kettlebells co-existed as a training device, and dumbbells won the evolutionary race, becoming a mainstream training tool.

This is not to say that kettlebells aren't great, I for one am very thankful they have made their way back into the fitness arena.

But it's not the sexy shape and cool look that makes me thankful, it is how kettlebell training programs must be designed if they are to be effective, and how those same methods can be applied to dumbbell and other types of training to make them better.

Kettlebell training and bodyweight calisthenics training share one challenge, how to get a full body workout when the resistance doesn't change.

In bodyweight training, you use the weight of your own body as resistance, a weight that remains constant, or even lowers due to fat loss over time. (This challenge I dealt with in Workout Without Weights: Bodyweight Calisthenics Workout Progression System.)

Kettlebells come in what's called "poods".

A pood is an old Russian weight measurement, around 16 kilograms, or 35 pounds.

Unlike dumbbells, where the next weight up is in smaller increments, to move up in kettlebell training your would need to go from 35 pounds to 44 pounds or 53 pounds, quite a jump.

Most kettlebell workouts use only one kettlebell or a pair of kettlebells of equal weight.

Therefore, using different weights for different exercises, like is common in bodybuilding workouts, is not an option.

Instead of being a drawback, I view this as a positive.

The Greatest Contribution Of Kettlebell Training!

Using only one weight, people training with kettlebells were forced to use their imagination and ingenuity to create workout programs that would improve the entire body.

And the result was spectacular, a way to use one training device and one weight to simultaneously improve all-around fitness, build a strong, athletic body and burn off unwanted fat.

By using a combination of Slow-Grinding Lifts and Quick-Explosive Lifts, kettlebell training cracked the code of getting an full body workout in a short time, using only one piece of equipment with only one weight measurement.

And the greatest thing is the commonly held belief that you need a room full of expensive equipment, monitors, probes and space age devices to create your best performance body has been shattered forever.

So what do you get when you apply kettlebell program design with dumbbells?

Here is an unsolicited testimonial from the UK

"Just want to say that I have recently purchased the 'Superior Dumbbell Workout' e-book and just want to let you know how pleased I am with it!

I have been going to the gym for a few months, but have been trying to ween myself off the gym machines, and onto Free weights. My local gym is very friendly, but small - they only have a rack of dumbbells (no barbells etc). Armed with the info from your e-book (love the easy to follow diagrams) I am not doing varied full body DB workouts.

Once again, thank you and keep up the good work!"
