I hurt my wrist at work on the pinky side. I started doing these exercises and started light so I didn-t feel any strain on the wrist. I started going up in weight and I noticed that the cross body hammer curls, rear delt rows, high pulls, and dumbbell flys put a lot of strain on that part of my wrist to where I can-t do the exercises. I-m sure any weight training would put strain on my wrist, but these are the exercises where I felt the most pain in that area. Should I just rest and wait for it to heal or are there some alternate exercises that have the same benefits? Or maybe exercises that allow for some rehabilitation? I-m pretty bummed since I was starting to notice progress and gain strength with these exercises

My 5 DB exercises of I could only choose 5:
1. DB bench press
2. DB pullover
3. Bent over row/tri pod row
4. DB shoulder press
5. DB (single leg) deadlift. My only DB's are 10kg. If I had heavier ones I'd not necessarily go for single leg.
If we include exercises that provide decent overload without requirement of dumbbells I'd switch out db bench press for dips/push-ups and the pullover for the pull-up. However, I'm glad I don't have to pick only five, because I hate that there aren't any squat or lunge variations in my list right now, and I love both the pullover and the bench press

Far and away the best chest dumbbell exercise is the 15 degree (one click on the adjustable bench) incline press. The contraction at the top is phenomenal and the angle makes it much safer for the shoulders. At the end of a set in my prime training days, I couldn't inhale at the top because the upper pec pump would push on my throat too much. Even now, when I lift my arms up my pecs don't disappear like what happens to many folks who only focus on flat and decline.

My 5 exercises are the dumbbell scoop press, the cross chest hammer curls, standing alternating curls, standing rows, and standing overhead power bombs. I do 48 push ups before hand and yea that-s actually my workout right now. I did this almost everyday for six months everything 3 sets of 12 with 20lb-25lb weights with 1 minute rests. My biceps, and shoulders grew a lot.

Certain dumbell workouts really get my hands burning and feeling tired. Now, since I've been going to the gym just over 2 months it has for the most part gone away but I still get it from time to time. Do I need to workout my hands more like for better grip strength? Or is it something normal that goes away the more you do it

My 5 favorites are.
1. DB Incline Curls
2. DB Hammer Curls
3. DB One Arm Rows
4. DB Bench Press
5. DB Incline Bench Press
After watching this video, I am definitely going to try all of these. Maybe I'll get some new favorites.
I'm always cautious trying new exercises because I have bad shoulders.

I only workout at home (alone) with a modest amount of equipment so I loved this list. I have more dumbbells than anything and always looking for options. My 5 are alternating curls, kickbacks, side and front lateral, bench press, and hammer curls (I also shadow box with light dumbbells for shoulders.

This is actually ALOT harder than it looks. I consider myself a very advanced lifter and had a hard time perfecting the form for the rear delt rows. Used very light weight as well-about 10-15lbs. As a point of reference I-m 6-2 235 former college football player. This WILL shock your muscles!
