Recommended Excercises with Dumbells?

Question

I am going to be using strictly dumbells for my workout routine moving forward. I split up my routine by:

-Chest/back
-Tris/bis
-Legs/Shoulders

I am looking for 3 excercise per body part. The dumbells I am using go up to 75lbs.

I lift 3 times per week. Thanks for your help.

Answer 2

first, i think you should alter your split. here's why. think of how much muscle mass you work on your chest and back day. a lot, right? same deal with legs. but your bi/tri day is a very small amount. i personally prefer a total body workout, but if you want to split it up, then pair chest with tris (since they both do pushing motions), and back with bis (pulling motions). i'd also forget extra shoulder work since you'll already be working them whenever you do any kind of push or pull.

chest: chest press, chest flies, dumbbell pullover
tris: overhead extension, bench dips, military press (to get some extra shoulder involvement)

back: bent over rows, pull-ups, upright rows
bis: regular curls, hammer curls, forearm curls

legs: squat, deadlift, side lunges, standing calf raise, seated calf raise. maybe throw in some core work like crunches, twists, leg raises, and hyperextensions.

and use that exrx.net side the guy above recommended for more ideas.
