Moves for All Types: 1-3

Begin with these six moves, designed for all body types.

1. Floating Lunge

Works legs, butt, abs
Hold dumbbells at sides. Lunge forward with right leg, bending knee 90 degrees. Push right foot back toward center, balancing for 1 count. Step back with right foot into a reverse lunge, then balance again at center. Repeat to complete set. Switch sides.

2. V-Sit with Chest Flye

Works chest, abs
Sit tall on floor with knees bent, feet down, holding dumbbells. Lean back slightly from the hips, abs tight, extending arms in front with palms facing each other. Slowly bring arms out to shoulder level while lowering torso about 45 degrees to floor. Return to start, bringing weights to center. Repeat.

3. T-Stand Row

Works upper back, abs
Stand with feet hip-width apart, holding dumbbells at sides. Lifting right leg behind you, hinge forward at the hips until torso is parallel to floor; keep arms extended with palms facing each other. Draw elbows toward ribs with arms close to sides. Straighten arms and repeat. (To modify, keep right toes on floor.)
