  • Lie flat on a bench, holding dumbbells at chest level.
  • Keep your feet flat on the ground and engage your core.
  • Press the dumbbells up until your arms are fully extended.
  • Lower the dumbbells back down with control, keeping your elbows slightly tucked in.

3Romanian Deadlifts (3 sets of 12 reps)

  • Stand with your feet hip-width apart, holding a barbell with an overhand grip in front of your thighs.
  • Hinge at your hips, keeping your back straight and core engaged.
  • Lower the barbell down your legs, feeling the stretch in your hamstrings.
  • Return to the starting position by contracting your glutes and hamstrings.

4Dumbbell Reverse Lunges (3 sets of 10 reps per leg)

  • Stand tall with your feet hip-width apart, holding a dumbbell in each hand.
  • Step back with one leg, lowering your body until both knees are bent at a 90-degree angle.
  • Push back up through your front heel to return to the starting position.
  • Alternate legs for each set.

5Pull-ups (3 sets of 8 reps)

  • Grasp the bar with an overhand grip, with your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.
  • Engage your core and pull your body up towards the bar, keeping your elbows close to your body.
  • Lower your body back down with control, feeling the stretch in your lats.

6Plank Rows (3 sets of 10 reps per arm)

  • Start in a high plank position with your hands holding dumbbells.
  • Keeping your hips steady, pull the dumbbell in one hand up towards your chest.
  • Return the weight back down to the ground and repeat with the opposite arm.

Completing this intermediate full-body workout program regularly will challenge you and help you build more strength, endurance, and muscle definition.

Stay consistent and enjoy the journey towards a fitter, stronger you!

Note: It's important to consult with a healthcare professional or a certified personal trainer before starting any new exercise program to ensure it aligns with your individual needs and capabilities.
