The top dumbbell workout is a program developed by trainer Eddie Lomax that primarily uses dumbbells as training tools. This is one of the best “anti-bodybuilding” dumbbell training guides out there.
Most dumbbell training guides present the same old boring workouts. However, Coach Lomax mixes it up with a variety of unique exercises, like dumbbell swings, snatches and cleans. These are exercises you won’t see in most dumbbell fitness guides. In addition to the unique exercises, it is the structure of the program that is truly unique. Coach Lomax takes you through three phases of training. The three phases of the program consist of:
- slow lifting supersets
- Explosive rapid rise timed circuits
- Slow and fast peripheral heart action
- Arrays combined with dumbbells
Each phase incorporates more difficult exercises, each time taking your body to new levels of fitness. Each workout is followed for 4 weeks before moving on to the next workout. So 4 workouts, done for 4 weeks each, 3 phases equals 48 weeks of training!
So let’s move on to the actual review part. I needed to tell you what the workouts incorporated to illustrate how much variety there is in this program. There are really only two ways to progress with any training program: difficult exercises and intensity techniques.
The more exercises you know how to do and the more intensity techniques you incorporate into your training, the fitter you will be. Most of the training techniques taught in the market are related to bodybuilding.
However, there is absolutely no one that teaches athletic and functional training techniques and exercises like CoachLomax does. This is truly a unique dumbbell fitness guide. There is no time for boring insulation work in Coach Lomax programs.
