Love This New Exercise: Dumbbell Pushups With Rotation

Yes, I’m a fitness geek.  I actually go on YouTube and search for exercise related videos to see if there’s anything new and cool to learn.  Today, I found this great new way to do pushups, which I’m planning to add to my routine.

It looks perfect.  Not much equipment needed, just some dumbbells.  Plus it’s a compound exercise, which means that it works out multiple muscles groups at once.  In this case, it looks like a great workout for your chest and back.

    These are very challenging, even without dumbbells. I do them, maybe a couple of times per month because I see thier value. That said, and I don’t say this often, I hate these things. But, I do them!

  2. Wow, these exercises look hard. I’m not even saying about dumbbels. But I like the thing, that you don’t need a lot of equipment.

    Try this for real torture: after the rotational movement, bring your feet between your hands and stand up, cleaning the two dumbells up to your shoulders, then front squat while holding the two dumbells to your shoulders, then thrust the dumbells up over your head; start with 5 or 10 lb dumbells to get the movements down. Workout: 21-15-9 repetitions, broken by a 400 meter run between rounds. Get some!
