Follow Along With This 10-Minute Full-Body Dumbbell Workout

You don't need an expensive gym membership to get a great full-body workout. All you need is a pair of dumbbells and this video workout we've created with CrossFit athlete Jordan Shalhoub.

Follow along with the video below or print out the workout so you can fit in your daily sweat session anytime, anywhere — even without an internet connection. The entire thing only takes 10 minutes to complete. You'll warm up for one minute, push yourself in the main workout for eight minutes, then finish up with a one-minute cool down.

Of course, you're more than welcome to repeat the entire circuit as many times as it takes to get your heart pounding and your muscles burning (two to three times through is ideal if you're using this as a standalone workout). But if you're just starting out or getting back into fitness, once through is definitely enough to see some serious results — with consistency, of course.

Give the workout a run through and let us know what you think in our LIVESTRONG.com Challenge Facebook group. And you can connect with Jordan on Instagram: @jordLS.
