    Default Dumbbell Workout

    Looking for a really good dumb bell work out. Just picked up a set of powerblocks (50lbs) to save room at home and want to get a complete workout routine going 3-4 days a week.

    What else do you have at home?

    Do you have a bench? If so, is it a flat bench or is it adjustable?

    Bent dumbbell row
    Dumbbell shoulder press
    Isolation curl
    Lateral side raise
    Horitzontal dumbbell row
    Seated overhead tricep extension
    Reverse dumbbell curls
