Get started today!

This 4 week program is designed to help you build muscle with unique exercises using only dumbbells! For people who don’t have access to much equipment or anyone who simply wants to try a program that doesn’t use confusing machines and a long list of necessary equipment. You don’t even need a bench! A set of lighter weights and heavy ones will be ideal but this entire plan could be done with a single pair of dumbbells if that’s all you have. You will not see the same old boring dumbbell exercises in this program. I love being creative and coming up with innovative exercises! This is a program you HAVE to try!

About Cole Shaffner

Online personal trainer

Hello! My name is Cole Shaffner, I am a 21 year old Personal Trainer. I began my fitness journey back in high school, where I had some pretty terrible habits and got into a lot of drugs and alcohol. Eventually, this landed me in the hospital with blood clots in my lungs. It changed my life dramatically but also gave me a new outlook on life. A second chance to make things different. After a lengthy recovery process I started to go to the gym more than ever. That’s when I found fitness and a drive to help others. I started my own garage gym where all I had was a squat rack, some plates, and a few dumbbells. I started to post unique and creative exercise content and the feedback was amazing. This inspired not only the name “Garagegainz” but a minimal equipment approach to fitness. Using what you have. A no excuses mindset. “Earn Your Rest” is a motto I live by. With everything in life you have to earn it. That’s why I love fitness, there’s no easy path. You earn your results on the daily. I specialize in bodybuilding type exercises with a goal of building muscle while staying as lean as possible year round. With me as your trainer you will have access to the workouts I use daily. Along with nutrition tips, exercise techniques, and daily motivation. I have been training clients for over 3 years and it’s my passion. To help people reach their goals. What are you waiting for? Take that next step towards your goals, with me by your side.

Frequently asked questions

Who are these workouts for (skill-level)?
These workouts are for any skill level! Beginner to advanced. Most of the exercises can be made easier or harder based on the weight you choose.
What do I need to participate in this program?
Only a pair of dumbbells! A few options for varied weights would be ideal, yet not necessary to complete this plan. Even if you only have a pair of 10lb weights you’ll still get a great workout. In this program I am seen using 10lb, 20lb, and 40lb dumbbells.
How to schedule the program into a week?
This is a 5 day split program! I would recommend listening to your body and taking your 2 rest days when you need them most. Some people may like getting all 5 workouts done Monday-Friday and taking the weekends off. Others might like resting ever 3 days or so! It’s completely up to you on how you want to fit these 5 workouts per week into your schedule.
How to get the best outcome of the program?
Follow the workouts to a T. You will get the best outcome by staying consistent in the plan, along with dialing in your nutrition. Adequate rest is also crucial, 6-8 hours per night. Your body needs to recover. Don’t forget to bring the intensity. There’s always an easy way out. You may see “10 reps” and quickly rush through them just to “get them done”. To truly achieve the best outcome you need to focus on mind muscle connection and challenge yourself with every single rep!
What are the goals of the program?
The goal is to build muscle! I want to prove to you that you don’t need fancy equipment to do so either. You can fatigue a muscle enough to force growth with only dumbbells and that is what this plan will help you do.
