An expert trainer says this dumbbell move should be a staple in everyone's workout routine—here's why

A woman performs a bent-over row with a dumbbell at home on a wide chair. Her right arm and right knee are on the chair, her left leg on the floor, and her torso is bent forward so her back is flat. In her left hand she holds a dumbbell, which she is rowing up to her ribcage. There's a chest of drawers and plant behind her. .

You don't need an expensive gym membership to build strength—you can do it at home with just a pair of dumbbells.

While you might not have access to the same machines, you can still target the same muscle groups and movement patterns with the right combination of exercises.
