Description: Full Body DB Grind

Try to keep rest to a minimum between sets and rounds 💪🏻 The timer in the app is so helpful!

I’m using between 5-20lb dumbbells

- Stand with feet hip-width apart and hold a dumbbell in each hand in front of thighs, palms facing body

- Then, keeping arms straight, send hips back and beno knees slightly to lower both dumbbells down to the floor in front of legs
- Continue lowering until hips are fully pushed back and the weights are as close to the floor as far as possible
- Keeping chest up, push through feet to return to standing, cleaning the dumbbells to the shoulders
- Squat down until your thighs are parallel to the floor
- Stand up out of the squat and extend your arms, pressing the dumbbells overhead

great flow, but.. we jumped right in and voiceover was a surprise, kind of distanced and less personal experience (though i can see how it’s maybe more practical for filming). i personally prefer when you are connected with us and talking while going through the flow. looking forward to more new yoga here and great studio 💛

Chelsea K 

Banana Back: “How do I get rid of it on the wall?”

That was super helpful! I feel like that's what I'm doing for tuck jumps, too. (bending elbows and collapsing in my chest).

Leba

Very helpful! You do a great job explaining the small nuances of correct positioning…thank you! Now I have to try that… 😋

Tania

Thank you so much for this video!! Really helpful!

Kate

Christy

L-Shape: “Why are these so hard?! Help!”

Very helpful and encouraging. I was beating myself up for not getting my butt to bump the wall but it's helpful to know that it's more about the repetition and getting comfortable with the action than actually bumping the wall. Thank you.
