YOUR DUMBBELL REPERTOIRE.<br />
SQUAT<br />
1<br />
Grab a dumbbell and hold<br />
it chest height. The hands<br />
should be placed under the<br />
weighted portion of one side<br />
of the dumbbell, allowing the<br />
handle and the other weighted<br />
portion to hang between the<br />
arms. Keeping the chest up<br />
and the midsection tight, sit down and back until<br />
the hips lower below the knees. Immediately stand<br />
up.<br />
The goblet squat is a great exercise used to learn a<br />
proper squat pattern and develop strength in the<br />
quads, hamstrings, glutes, low back, abdominals,<br />
and upper back to allow a person to progress to<br />
either a back squat or front squat with a barbell.<br />
For the advanced exerciser, the goblet squat may be<br />
used to perform intervals to provide a challenging<br />
conditioning workout.<br />
