I just did this 1000-rep dumbbell workout — here's what happened

100 reps of any exercise is an awful lot, so when I saw this 1,000-rep dumbbell workout, I knew it was going to be a challenge. After a weekend of little exercise —and a lot of food and drinking at a friend’s bachelorette party — I decided to put my fears aside, grab a set of the best adjustable dumbbells, and try the workout, devised by home workout coach Matt Fox. What happened next wasn’t pretty. 

Fox specializes in workouts you can do from the comfort of your own home, using very little equipment. If you do end up heading to the gym to try this, I’d recommend picking up two sets of dumbbells — a lighter pair and a heavier set.
