Plan Details
The Dumbbells of the Dead routine by kylosius is a 3 day workout plan. It is a beginner level plan to achieve general fitness goals.
This is a basic, (mostly) dumbbell workout plan. I prefer dumbbells as they are generally safer than barbells, help to even out muscular imbalance, and isolation of a specific body part. You can do these in any order but make sure you rest between days (Mon, rest, Wed, rest, Fri) Aim for 8-12 reps per set. If an exercise is for a single body part, such as concentration curls, you will do 3 sets on the left and 3 on the right. All weights can be swapped for barbells, kettlebells, or dumbbells. Just remember, when using a barbell you should increase your weight by 20% compared to dumbbells. Warm up by using dynamic movements (walk on treadmill, elliptical, etc) for at least 10-15 minutes. DO NOT do static stretching. Static stretching is best used as a cool down.
