40-Minute Legs and Abs Dumbbell Workout For Weight Loss
If You Want to Lose Weight, Grab Dumbbells and Do This 40-Minute Legs and Abs Workout
If you want a solid workout to help you lose weight, get sweaty, burn calories, and build lean muscle, try this 40-minute strength-training workout from NASM-certified personal trainer Sydney Cummings. This workout is focussed on the legs and abs and includes 13 exercises, each done for 45 seconds followed by 15 seconds of rest over two rounds. You'll need dumbbells and a bench or sturdy chair for lunges and step-ups.
"I used my 15-, 20-, 25-, 30-, and 40-pound dumbbells today, so grab some weights that challenge you in moves that are as light as a lunge and as heavy as a glute bridge," Cummings said in the caption. If those weights seem too heavy, use what you feel comfortable with, and as you build up your strength by working out regularly, you'll be able to go heavier.
