			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of the most popular weight training programs is the dumbbell  workouts. It  has been popular since years. You will see many fad workouts and  equipment, but  dumbbell workouts are still popular because of its inexpensive and easy  method  to get in figure and develop muscles. They also are very reliable which  counts  for their popularity. Moreover, they use very little space and thus  reducing the  cost compared to other equipments and so becoming the optimal choice for  many  peoples preferring workouts in their homes.<span id="more-41"></span></p>
<p><strong></p>
<h2>Dumbbell Workouts</h2>
<p></strong> <strong>Chest Press</strong> – On a bench lay flat. Now take a dumbbell in your  each arm.  Start with the dumbbells alongside your chest and your palms facing  slightly  near you. Now push the dumbbells in the direction of the ceiling and  twist the  dumbbells a little such that the left head of your right dumbbell and  the right  head of your left dumbbell are touching almost. Now bring back the  dumbbells to  their beginning position.</p>
<p><strong>Bent Over Row</strong> – With feet shoulder stand width apart, and back  making an  angle of 135* from the floor. Now slightly bend your knees keeping your  head  facing straight hold the dumbbells under your body with your arms  extended. Next  bring the dumbbells near your stomach and squeeze your back muscles.  Return to  the starting position.</p>
<p><strong>Squat</strong> – Take two dumbbells and stand with slightly wider width  than the  shoulders. Now position each dumbbell on your shoulder with elbow bent  facing  front. You should note that your upper arms must be parallel to the  floor. Now  crouch down while keeping your heels flat. One excellent method to  crouch is to  pretend like you are sitting on a chair. Now try to bend with your hips  before  your knees and don’t let your knees go past your toes.</p>
<p><strong>Dumbbell Exercises to Develop Your Biceps</strong></p>
<p><strong>Dumbbell Curls</strong> – It is one of the simplest exercises that can be  performed with dumbbells. Take a dumbbell in each hand and stand  straight. Let  your palms face front and now lift the dumbbells only bending your arm  at the  elbows. You may curl each arm alternatively. Do this routine everyday  not  swinging your hands. Perform 3 sets with around 8 &#8211; 10 reps per set and  raise  the weight of the dumbbells progressively.</p>
<p><strong>Concentration Curls</strong> – Sit on one edge of a bench and bend down  keeping a  dumbbell in one of your hand. Slightly open your legs and let your elbow  rest on  the matching knee or thigh. While you rest the other arm on the thigh or  knee,  curl the dumbbell at the elbow. The routine must be done with no jerks.</p>
<p><strong>Hammer Curls</strong> – It is same as the regular dumbbell routine but  having one  exception. Here in Hammer Curls your palms must face each other. The  routine is  a little hard than regular curls. So you need to accustom with the  weights as  your wrists will be under a lot of pressure during this routine. Never  straighten your elbows totally whenever you lower the dumbbells.</p>
<p><strong>Incline Bicep Curls</strong> – For this routine you need an incline bench  and need  to lie down on it with a dumbbell in each hand. This routine may look  similar as  regular dumbbell curls but it is more challenging and interesting. Lift  the  dumbbells up to your shoulders and lower them again. By this routine you  will  develop your bicep muscles very quickly.</p>
