Dumbbell Training Exercises: Dumbbell Clean, Front Squat, Thruster

People have various responsibilities at home and work. So they prefer to do their workouts at home. Training with dumbbells is the best available option for you if you prefer to workout at home.. Here is an intense dumbbell exercise that will help you save time and get your workout done faster.

Dumbbell Clean, Front Squat, Thrusters

  • This trains eighty percent of your body. The exercise is a mixture of three movements: Clean, Front squat and shoulder press.
  • Stand with your feet shoulder width apart and hold a dumbbell in each hand.
  • Dip and bed the knees a bit. Reverse the movement and shrug your shoulders. Use the generated momentum to bring the dumbbells to your head.
  • Flare your elbows out as move the dumbbells closer to your head.
  • Keep raising the dumbbells past your head. Bring the elbows under the dumbbell.
  • The final position will be with the dumbbells at the shoulder level and the elbows pointing in front of you.
  • Squat as low as possible from the position. Make it a point to keep the back straight, abs contracted, & Chest out.
  • Lift the dumbbells while standing up.
  • You will end the movements with the dumbbells over your head and you shall be standing straight up.
  • Return to starting position and repeat. The front squat will be easier and so will be the press portion compared to a clean.
  • Practice and you will master the movement. The major thought behind this is to lift the dumbbells explosively off the ground.

This exercise, if performed regularly, will help you get into great shape without going to a gym. All you need is one or two dumbbells to perform the movement.

Perform this movement at as a high an intensity as possible to boost your metabolism. The quicker your metabolic rate, the faster you will burn off the fat.

Dumbbell Circuit Training at Home

There are many people who are unable to go to a gym to train because they can’t afford it.  So here is a circuit training workout that can be performed with just a single dumbbell. The exercises I’ve chosen are easy to perform and everyone can afford buying just one dumbbell. So start today and get back into shape; even without going to the gym.

The Exercises:

Dumbbell One Armed Step Ups


  • Face a bench and stand. Hold a dumbbell in your hand. Place one foot on the bench and press down so that your body will be brought up and then place the other foot.
  • Then step down. Now change feet and repeat the same exercise. Also change hands while holding the dumbbells after few reps.

One Dumbbell Golf Squat

  • Hold a dumbbell with both hands. Squat low and make sure that the dumbbell is in between your legs.
  • Twist your torso, and while doing this squat back up. Drive the dumbbell to the right shoulder. Make sure the arms are straight. Alternate sides and repeat.

One Armed Dumbbell Crunch

  • Lie down on the floor. Hold a dumbbell in front of your body. Make sure the other hand is in a neutral position.
  • Crunch upwards and keep the dumbbell in a position over your head. You will feel this position in your upper abs and oblique’s. This is a very effective exercise.

One Armed Dumbbell Curls

  • Hold a dumbbell to the side of your body with one hand. Curl the dumbbell toward your shoulder while bending the elbow.
  • Stop when you reach the top position. Slowly bring the dumbbell down, and repeat this on the other way.

One Armed Dumbbell Split Squat


  • Don’t confuse with a lunge. Unlike lunge where you bend forward and down. In this you place a foot in front of another and have a split stance.
  • Just squat up and squat down in this position. This requires far more balance than the lunge.
  • This may be up to ten times harder than it when it is performed just with a single dumbbell.

The Workout:

5 rounds of:

  • Dumbbell One Arm Step Ups, 10 repetitions each side
  • One Dumbbell Golf Squat, 10 repetitions alternating sides
  • One Armed Dumbbell Crunch, 10 repetitions each side
  • One Armed Dumbbell Curls, 10 repetitions each side
  • One Armed Dumbbell Split Squat, 10 repetitions each side

Interval Training with Kettlebells

So you’ve tried interval training with cardio movements. You’ve even tried bodyweight interval workouts and dumbbell interval workouts. It’s time to know experience Kettlebell intervals.

Use one of the 4 interval workout schemes turn your normal Kettlebell workouts into high intensity, puke inducing workouts:

Interval Training Scheme #1: Interval Trisets

A triset is simply where you perform three exercises back to back with little to no rest in between each set. So, to perform an intervaltriset, simply choose three movements, perform them back to back, and assign a time frame to each exercise.

Here’s a sample template:

3 rounds of:

  • Exercise#1, 30 seconds
  • Exercise#2, 30 seconds
  • Exercise#3, 30 seconds
  • Rest period, 30 seconds

Of course, you can perform more or less rounds or change the interval period.

Interval Training Scheme #2: Triple EDT

My definition of interval training is basically anything that involves a time frame. EDT, or Escalating Density Training is a method that involves just one, long time frame.

Within this time frame, you alternate between two exercises and perform as many sets of each movement as possible. So, here’s a sample template:

For 10 minutes:

  • Exercise #1, 10 repetitions
  • Exercise #2, 10 repetitions

Rest 2 minutes

So, you’re alternating between 2 exercises for 10 minutes, non-stop, then resting 2 minutes. Do this two more times, to make it a “triple” EDT workout.

Interval Training Scheme #3: Double Interval Supersets

A superset is where you alternate between two movements with little to no time in between each set. Interval Supersets are exactly the same as interval trisets. However, with this training scheme, the “double” simply means that you will be doing two supersets within a workout.

Here’s a sample template of a double interval superset workout:

Superset #1:

  • Exercise #1, 30 seconds
  • Exercise #2, 30 seconds
  • Rest period, 30 seconds

Rest 1 minute

Superset #2:

  • Exercise #1, 30 seconds
  • Exercise #2, 30 seconds
  • Rest period, 30 seconds

Rest 1 minute

So, for this workout, you’re performing two exercises back to back for 30 seconds each. Then rest 30 seconds. Perform each superset 3-5 times. Then rest 1 minute before moving onto the next superset.

Interval Training Scheme #4: Interval Supersets

It’s common to see 3-5 supersets in a normal workout. However, for the most part, I’ve only used one set of supersets. I would do up to 10 rounds, alternating between two exercises.

These were brutal workouts. So, to tone down the workouts, I started to split the workouts and perform 2 or 3 supersets within a workout. This is why I use the terms “double” to mean two supersets within a workout, and “triple” to mean three supersets within a workout.

Hope that clears it up. I believe some people were confused when I used those terms. Here’s a template:

10 rounds of:

  • Exercise #1, 30 seconds
  • Exercise #2, 30 seconds
  • 30 Seconds rest

The idea is pretty simple, but the workouts are brutal. Use Kettlebell exercises that you already know and plug them into the templates to create your own high intensity Kettlebell workouts.

Train Urself like the Military with TacFit Commando

TacFit Commando is an incredibly new and unique fitness program never seen before. It is not really a muscle building or a fat loss program. The program is based more on building full body functionality and mobility than anything else.

If you’re interested in challenging bodyweight workouts, then ones that top-level military personnel use may just interest you. The program is developed by CST (Circular Strength Training) founder ScottSonnon and CST Head Coach Ryan Murdock.

The program includes exercises and workouts that Scott Sonnon uses to train top level military groups around the world. These military personnel don’t need to be super ripped or have big muscles.

Their goals are to make sure their body works at the highest level possible at all times. Hence, TacFit Commando focuses on the improvement of flexibility, strength, stamina, and recovery.

TacFit Commando for the Average Joe

So, you get the basic idea of what TacFit Commando is, and why the top military personnel recruit Coach Sonnon for their training programs. But what can you, the average joe (or jane) get out of this unique program?

Here’s the thing: getting insanely ripped or really big really isn’t very beneficial for the average person. Losing some weight, gaining some muscle, and building some strength – enough to do things better in daily life is what is really important for the average individual.

So, why do people obsess over fat loss, mass gain, or improvements in strength? Well, it’s because…we like it. You’re on this site, and you’re reading this article because you’re a fitness fanatic – just like me.

If you’re not, and you’re just a beginner looking to – drop a little weight, add a little muscle mass, or add a little strength – then you’re better off choosing one of the basic workouts I have advertised on the side bar ==>

So, TacFit Commando is really for fitness fanatics. People who love training for trainings sake and are ready to try something truly unique and revolutionary. If you want to do a military workout without actually joining the military, thenTacFit is for you.

I can also see this program being useful for police officers, firefighters, emergency aid workouts, and athletes. Today Coaches Sonnon and Murdock have a live conference online conference explaining the TacFit program.

Only people who have access to their mailing list have access to this conference and all the free content they’ll be rolling out in the next few days. Here’s the schedule for the free information:

  • Thursday, February 4, 2010 – Scott Sonnon and Ryan Murdock uses U-Stream technology for a live conference. This is not something you want to miss, as this unique technology will allow you to interact with both the Coaches.
  • Sunday, February 7, 2010 – Ryan Murdock shows you an entertaining and educational video which provides with his actual training sessions. This is the best way you’ll get a feel for the TacFit training method.
  • Monday, February 8, 2010 – Win a FREE Copy. There will be a blog contest where the Coaches will give away 3 copies of the TacFit program for free. You may be one of them!
  • Tuesday, February 9, 2010 – All the bonuses that are associated with the product will be reveals. This final video will help address any last minute questions or concerns you may  have regarding the program
