Work Out at Home
Part III: Back and Core

Back exercise – lawnmowers (using a "dumbbell")

  1. Take a split stance position (right foot forward, left foot behind).

  2. Using your left hand, brace yourself against a sofa, shelf, or other stable object.

  3. Tighten your abs as much as you can and slowly raise the "dumbbell," bending at the elbow.

  4. Hold for a brief pause at the top of the motion, and then slowly lower the weight (dumbbell) back down.
