Whilst isolating and stuck within the confines of your four walls (and if you are lucky enough, a garden) it is easy to understand how much you might be missing the gym. For those that are, we have teamed up with model, personal trainer and online coach Rory McCall for workouts that you can do at home, starting with the one dumbbell full body workout.

Remember that the reps that you hit will be largely dependent on the weights you have available, but try to aim for 1-2 reps short of failure on each set and perhaps go to failure on the final set of some exercises. As you're likely to only be working with light-moderate weights at home focus on slowing down the tempo of each exercise and including pause reps to increase the difficulty.

Goblet Squat 3 x 10-15

Single Arm Row 3 x 10-15 (each arm)

Note - superset so perform the goblet squat & single arm row back to back. E.g. Do a set of goblet squats then move straight into a set of single arm rows before resting and repeating for 3 total sets.

Staggered Romanian Deadlift 3 x 10-15 (each leg)

Single Arm Floor Press 3 x 10-15 (each arm)

Note - superset so perform the staggered Romanian Deadlift & single arm floor press back to back. E.g. Do a set of the staggered Romanian deadlift then move straight into a set of the single arm floor press before resting and repeating for 3 total sets.

Reverse lunges 3 x 10-15 (each leg)

Half Kneeling shoulder press 3 x 10-15 (each arm)

Note - superset so perform the reverse lunge & half kneeling shoulder press back to back. E.g. Do a set of the reverse lunges then move straight into a set of the half kneeling shoulder press before resting and repeating for 3 total sets.
