Build a stronger core and full-body strength with just six moves and a pair of dumbbells

You might think that building full-body strength requires lots of equipment and time. But with a combination of the right exercises, all you need is a pair of dumbbells to target all of the major muscles, with a fairly quick and straightforward workout.

If you regularly train at home, it's worth investing in a set of the best adjustable dumbbells as they combine several weights in one, and you can increase the load as you get stronger. If you're at the gym, aim for a fixed-load pair of dumbbell weights that'll challenge your muscles but not effect your form.
