• 15-minute full body beginner workout
• 30-minute full body workout – banded edition

This workout is a progression of the banded workout, focusing on a range of upper body, lower body and core-based strengthening exercises.

What dumbbells should you use?

A range of weights is preferable to suit the various exercises (e.g. you may only feel comfortable with lighter weights for some exercises but heavier weights for others). You can still use a single set of dumbbells, ensuring you only use the weights if you can comfortably complete the respective sets (with no pain).
