And one of the best ways is to build some muscle to boost your metabolism, and this total-body workout with dumbbells will do just that!
George also blesses us with his presence… and by sleeping through the whole workout ?
You, however, will not have that luxury.
The workout includes circuit-style strength work, to increase your muscle tone so we can work on improving your metabolism, with little rest so we get a good calorie burn while we’re at it too.
I also play around with the tempo (speed of the exercise) to change up the intensity for us, we will also do a lot of unilateral training and balance work so we can hit the core, and I added a fun little dumbbell ab routine about 75% of the way in.
Although I was trying to get this workout under 45 minutes, I believe that it’s those extra 9 minutes that make this one so effective ?
But, you can let me know.
