Fitness Workout - 20 min Beginner Dumbbell Interval Workout by ConikiTV.com

why do you breathe in when you push then breathe out when you bring the weight back down? ive been told to do the opposite is there a reason for that

[conikicon008]

@619yamaha Good question, the reason is that any pressing movement above the head such as in a shoulder press requires greater stability than pressing whilst lying on your back as in a bench press as the bench is supporting you. Breathing in will add greater volume of air into your body thus expanding your rib cage and hence giving you a wider base to push against which in turn gives you greater stability so you can press with strength. Try it.

No bent-over row?

[conikicon008]

@SpeedoJoe Bent over row for beginners seems to be a little challenging and they tend to use their lower back most times. Because of this we have chosen to omit that exercise however it is incorporated in basic intermediate and advanced versions in our other routines. Thanks for your comment.

@conikicon008 A fair position, but I would say that dumbbell bent-over rows with assistance from a bench are perfectly fine for beginners as long as they dont go too heavy too soon.

Obviously barbell pendlay rows aren't as easy for beginners.
