Wondered what size dumbbells you should be using? I explain what a beginner's heavy dumbbell should look like for most major lifts. In addition, I go into about what a metabolic workout is, how often you should be performing them each week, and whether or not a beginner should do a split body training program.
All that, plus I answer what PJ stands for. Sort of. 😇
