Great DB video, I always admired these dumbbells but can't seem to find anything like them. They look like they have a contoured cushion grip. Can you tell us the name of the manufacturer for them? By the way, the soft background piano music adds a nice touch.
This is what Jeff is about: athletic training not “just” body building . When I see other channels criticizing Jeff these are usually bodybuilding channels. From their perspective they may be right sometimes. But let’s not forget that Athlean X is primarily for improving your overall athleticism and is the supporting any other sport you are performing. Jeff helped me tremendously over the past five years. I am 53 years old now and fitter than ever thanks to his programs
I’m 71 with arthritic joints and I work out with tension bands. Seeing Jeff do these dumbbell movements I realized I can modify my current program for greater variety and results. Thanks Jeff
Jeff, you are a legend. I’ve been training for 41 years and your videos are giving me a new drive and desire to up my game (again 😅) Thank you for another incredible video. Andy
You want to hear our feedback here it is. Been following you for a few years now. At 64 I will have to give you a lot of credit for teaching me a few things along the way. Your content is exemplary. Thanks you.
Every time I watch your videos I take my notebook and take notes of your training and I learn how to master and perform correctly. Super useful. ❤️❤️❤️
I have been following your channel for about a year. Sunday evening I started working out. Mercy, am I out of shape for a 44 year old male. Jeff, thanks for the videos. I am slowly getting into shape.
I don't have individual weights anymore, just bands and the Bowflex adjustable dumbbells. This is a great video guide for dumbbell work outs! I have a vibrating platform that I can incorporate some of these exercises on so I am excited to implement a routine off this video. This with my TRX, bands, and treadmill is all I will ever need! I have been following Jeff for years now and he is still the best out there!!
Thanx for these exercises! Lately, all I have been dying are dumbbell exercises at home. Don't have time for gyms anymore but doing something at home works just fine!
Chest press machine, squat machine, lat pull-down, chest row machine, Tricep cable extension…. You don’t need dumbells at planet fitness bro. Maybe for your side delts, but that’s the only one I can think of.
@@abelmoreno4836That’s dumb advice. Machines are rigid, don’t really engage your core or stabilizers, and are less functional than dumbbells. Not using free weights is just dumb period.
I've watched your videos since way back in the day when it was just you, Scott Herman, Scooby, etc. You mentioned looking up to Sylvester Stallone, and in the same way I've looked up to you as my physique goal. I'm a personal trainer now, thanks in large part to you as an inspiration and a teacher. Now my training is a little less bodybuilding focused because I'm involved pretty heavily in martial arts, but I still have a lot of respect.
As usual, Jeff has provided five star instruction. Thank you. But I will say, as to biceps, I would say chins are the first set to do before any curls.
Great video, I'm just starting out and I'm 56. I have very no muscle tone and have never worked out. Are these good to start with to help tone and tighten up loose skin? Thanks for your time and a great instructional video.
Gotta admit, I'm surprised how many people don't do the pull over. The first time I tried to do that (focusing on form of course) I about died, but holy hell did I feel a difference. Its a regular part of my routine now.
These are some awesome dumbbell exercises variations. I can't wait to try some of them up tomorrow morning! Thanks for the awesome tips, your enthusiasm, and your expertise.
Your physical body speaks for itself. I enjoyed your presentation, and your desire to inspire. Great thinking process too. Exercises I believe anyone can do, and that matters. Thank you for the inspiration and the study on body mechanics. Impressed and inspired. Robert
Amazing compilation of exercises. I've seen everyone of these in the various ATHLEAN-X workout videos in the past, just separated. It would be a truly wonderful thing to have a follow along workout video similar to the video titled The World's Fastest Chest Workout (Intense!). That's still a great workout video, it's always nice to do the follow along ones 🙂
Always great watching your videos. Wondering if you’re going to continue the best exercises ranked series. Would be great to see a forearm and a traps one! Other than that, I think the only other major muscles missing is calves and low back / erectors.
I love your videos! I'm been gaining Strength and Mobility back, after a long time of no working out. It's hard not to tell people, to try this exercise this way for better results. When I'm at the gym, keep up the helpful videos
I just added DB high pulls to my training this week. I did a quick RUclips search tonight and almost every video I found for DB high pull they were doing db high upright rows...nice and explosively too. hurt just to watch those! thanks for providing correct info!
Do we still need to do belly exercises when we we are doing Heavy gym exercises? Because it is believed that your body posture automatically transforms when we do exercises
My son is a freshman in high school this year. He had a pretty good growth spurt this year in height. I would like to see him fill out. I would love your take on a baseball specific workout. Thank you. Vic M
Step-up with a barbell, but on a lower bench, woks great too (functional for running, jumping etc). You can load these quite a bit and the "non-full range" motion actually comes closer to real-life running, jumpin getc. Can also do the explosive version where there is a little jump ("skip-like") with a very fast legraise on the leg that isn't carrying the weight. I actually think this feels more natural compared to the dumbbells.
Kinda unrelated to your comment but related to the farmers carry - how do you carry it for that long without it raping the palm of the hand? Whenever I tried it, my forearms or back never fail me, my handpalms do.
@roncerjani9063 well, the handle for kettle bells tends to be smoother. With kettle bells, you could also further strengthen your grip by looping a small towel or cloth in between the handle and grasping the towel to carry the kettle bells instead of the actual handle. I hope that makes sense and helps.
Again another shirtless video of Jeff showing us what we could achieve if we follow his advice. I love the way Jeff always finishes off with a biceps workout........ biceps.......his best asset and we know why.
What suggestions would one have for someone who is trying to build build up overal back muscle to someone who physically cannot lay flat on any surface or maintain 3 points of contact on the wall. Ive had back surgery and am trying to get back in shape, but a lot of exercises require those from you. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Any chance to see Kettlebells on your channel one day?
Thanks for all the amazing content!
How can I contact you..? Can you please share your email..? Grateful
I have notifications set and still did not receive video notification till 5 minutes before watching video.
My PF has both static smith racks w/barbells and standard barbells w/a fixed weight plate.

Yep, also this channel is about being lean whereas bodybuilding is typically about gaining bulk.
Hes also pulled me out of many a hole with injuries,100% my top RUclips fitness dude.
I’m 71 with arthritic joints and I work out with tension bands. Seeing Jeff do these dumbbell movements I realized I can modify my current program for greater variety and results. Thanks Jeff

I can't imagine somebody who's been training for 41 years saying Jeff is a legend after watching this literal BS video.
You want to hear our feedback here it is. Been following you for a few years now. At 64 I will have to give you a lot of credit for teaching me a few things along the way. Your content is exemplary. Thanks you.
I just bought a nice pair of adjustable dumbbells since that's all I have room for right now so this is perfect timing for me. Thanks for the video
This really does increase my arsenal for the gym. Thank you very much!
💪🔥
Jeff you are the Guru for training! Great channel and way to get straight into it and keep the video moving quickly so we don’t fall asleep!
Every time I watch your videos I take my notebook and take notes of your training and I learn how to master and perform correctly. Super useful. ❤️❤️❤️
I didn't check this channel for a couple years now. It's still the best around....
I have been following your channel for about a year. Sunday evening I started working out. Mercy, am I out of shape for a 44 year old male. Jeff, thanks for the videos. I am slowly getting into shape.
Amazing video. Some of these I’ve never tried and are so simple yet effective. Awesome job Jeff. Starting this tomorrow!
So far, the very best set of dumbbell exercises I've found on RUclips. Thank you, sir.
I don't have individual weights anymore, just bands and the Bowflex adjustable dumbbells. This is a great video guide for dumbbell work outs!

Now on to the next video!
Telling me how I’m doing them all wrong!
Planet Fitness only has dumbbells, so this is helpful
Chest press machine, squat machine, lat pull-down, chest row machine, Tricep cable extension…. You don’t need dumbells at planet fitness bro. Maybe for your side delts, but that’s the only one I can think of.

@@abelmoreno4836 I meant they don’t have free barbells…at least not the ones near me. True about the other equipment, though…especially cables
@@mightymochi6320Ow no you aren’t engaging the core and stabilizers ☝️🤓
@@mightymochi6320 It’s what works for me so idc And my point was that PF doesn’t just have dumbells.
Jeff always delivering the best content. Thanks brother.

Jeff, you are without a doubt one of the most practical and thorough trainers that I have had the pleasure to learn from! Jim
I just moved into a complex that has a workout area and it's all dumbbells. This is omega help. Thanks
As usual, Jeff has provided five star instruction. Thank you.
But I will say, as to biceps, I would say chins are the first set to do before any curls.
I did the carry and man do I love it. So simple but effective the burn was great
Great video, I'm just starting out and I'm 56. I have very no muscle tone and have never worked out. Are these good to start with to help tone and tighten up loose skin? Thanks for your time and a great instructional video.
Thank you, coach! I look forward to all of your videos for the correct techniques and education. 😎👍🏿👏🏿🙌🏿💪🏿
Mr Jeff is motivated 24/7. 💪
Gotta admit, I'm surprised how many people don't do the pull over. The first time I tried to do that (focusing on form of course) I about died, but holy hell did I feel a difference. Its a regular part of my routine now.

Man I feel like I've learned so much from your vids...thanks for always putting out quality stuff!
Fantastic list, especially sneaking in a few power variations. Kudos Jeff!
Been using the Jacked program for a few months now, excellent results!
Clean up and over is a great killer. Thanks for this list!
What about DB thrusters, DB should press, DB triceps extension, or DB dead lift?
I'm going to try these tomorrow at the gym. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge sir. God bless you 🙏🏼
This is a great video. I am not certain how many times I have watched it. Soo much to absorb and put into action
Nice combinations with the dumbbells ! Such versatile tools especially for a home gym
You need to make a playlist of just dumbbell exercises 👍🏻
Your physical body speaks for itself. I enjoyed your presentation, and your desire to inspire. Great thinking process too. Exercises I believe anyone can do, and that matters. Thank you for the inspiration and the study on body mechanics. Impressed and inspired. Robert

Love from India/ Loved your video big bro/ Will follow it surely
Always great watching your videos.

Jeff says we don't pull enough...! Thanks for tips Jeff
Jeff on his level like always. Thank you Jeff
Thank you for this great and accessible workout. I’ve gained 45 pounds with a new office sitting job. I’ll eat better too but this really helps.
Good stuff. I’ve been looking for some new lifts to add some variety to my workouts. And you’re looking good Jeff!
LOVE that PLYO DB row!!!
I love your videos! I'm been gaining Strength and Mobility back, after a long time of no working out. It's hard not to tell people, to try this exercise this way for better results. When I'm at the gym, keep up the helpful videos
This is incredibly useful for people who travel a lot, because many hotel gyms only have dumbbells.
Thanks, I always learn something from your videos!
Hello. I am really impressed with this video. As a beginner with knee replacements, do you have a weekly plan that targets the entire body?
wow you're a BEAST. This was exactly the video I needed, thank you!!
2:33 DB reverse lunges
5:42 Pullover
9:32 Abs
Thanks Jeff. I am pretty sure I have a SLAP tear in the shoulder. Are these exercises ok to do with those injuries.
You are awesome Jeff!
Thank you for all the tips
I just added DB high pulls to my training this week. I did a quick RUclips search tonight and almost every video I found for DB high pull they were doing db high upright rows...nice and explosively too. hurt just to watch those! thanks for providing correct info!
Thanks. Gotta save this to watch later for future reference when I hit another workout.
Always informed and inspiring videos. Class act
Great exercises and presentation as always, Jeff!
Fantastic exercises… will definitely incorporate some into my routine
Thanx a Lot for so much Good Ideas! Live it!
Very helpful, THANK YOU!
Fantastic video Jeff, thanks !!
Great Video Jeff! Love dumbbells
Add a march step (high knees) to that Farmer Carry and it will take it to the next level.

This would be a good series. 10 Best Band and Kettlebell Exercises Ever would be great. We don't all have access to barbells and cable machines.
Thank you master.i,m from Italy.
Step-up with a barbell, but on a lower bench, woks great too (functional for running, jumping etc). You can load these quite a bit and the "non-full range" motion actually comes closer to real-life running, jumpin getc.
Can also do the explosive version where there is a little jump ("skip-like") with a very fast legraise on the leg that isn't carrying the weight. I actually think this feels more natural compared to the dumbbells.
I only have dumbbells so thanks for this Jeff
I thought the upper body squat is the dip? Great information thanks for sharing! Very informative
Thank you for your help God bless you 😇🙏
Awesome Jeff, excellent as always
What are some safe exercises to work around herniated disc's? Specifically back and ab exercises
thanks for your exercises!
The best coach ever
Jeff does each step with both legs to avoid muscle imbalances
I just love this channel
Fantastic. So well done❤
Thanks Jeff as always
Very nice and helpful. Thanks
What happened to the previous 8 best dumbbell ones? Are they still the 8 best? Do we have now 17 because the farmers carry is included in both.?
Good video. Would like to see 10 best barbell. Some are obvious but definitely not all.
The Farmers Carry with one dumbell while maintaining a tight and stable core also makes a great functional core exercise.
Kinda unrelated to your comment but related to the farmers carry - how do you carry it for that long without it raping the palm of the hand? Whenever I tried it, my forearms or back never fail me, my handpalms do.
Exactly. For the reasons you mention, the "Suitcase" Carry is actually better than the Farmer's Carry IMO.
@@roncerjani9063reduce friction between your palm and DB then
@@nomnomyourmom I do wear gloves, don't help much
@roncerjani9063 well, the handle for kettle bells tends to be smoother.

It’s nice to find a channel that’s not just trying to sell you protein powder. Also can we acknowledge that this script is college essay level.
Very informative. Thank you
Thanks I'm going to try them need to get back into some kind of shape. Doing fasting 16 hours fasting 8hrs to eat
