Man Maker

Hands on the dumbbells: push-up, row left, row right, feet in, clean the bells to the shoulders and stand, then a thruster overhead; that is one rep.

How to do it

Setup

Plank with a hand on each dumbbell, feet wide.

Steps

  1. Do a push-up on the dumbbells.
  2. Row one bell to the hip, hips square.
  3. Row the other bell the same way, then jump the feet in.
  4. Clean the bells to the shoulders and stand, then squat and press them overhead in one thruster.
  5. Lower the bells to the floor; that is one rep.

Common mistakes

Hips see-sawing on the rows: the plank rules the row; brace first. Standing up before the clean: the bells come to the shoulders from the low position. Pressing without the squat drive: the thruster is legs first, arms second.

Breathing

Exhale on the push-up, on each row and on the press.
