Finally I have this video done! It took a long long time because I had to walk the fine line of giving a good, challenging, and effective workout while keeping it safe for a 10 year old to do alone. At first I wasnt going to use dumbells at all but that would have been a lame workout and I would have gotten panned. I hope people are not disappointed. The other problem I faced was that I knew that many teens dont have the patience to do research and so I felt I needed to put everything they needed into this one video. I basically crammed my entire website and content of my 82 videos into this little 22 minute video. So yes, its long but its because I tried to make it self contained. If the length turns people off this will be my last attempt in making a self contained video. The comments so far are not encouraging ...

Fantastic video, but I do have some questions.
1: When showing the exercises, you said "do as many reps as you can" but afterwards, you said we should do between 8-15 reps. Which is the correct?
2: I've just gotten started on the Beginning Plan. Should I stick with it for a few months, or maybe even a year until I've developed some basic strength before doing this workout?
3(a bit off topic): I've finally found two places to do pull-ups, but they are both outside and it's getting close to winter. Sweden is famous for pretty bad weather in the fall and winter, so would it be OK for me to wait with the pull-ups until it gets a bit warmer?
Anyways, thanks for a great video!

The idea is that you should be tired after the push-ups and flies, so the dumbbell presses won't be as easy as you think. |

great video scooby, love it. The thing is, im currently doing your beginners plan and i am 15 years old. You said to do this as you need to get your body ready to lift weights instead of just going straight into them. So, should i continue doing the beginners plan or do the workout on your new video for a bit more intensity, as the beginners plan aint got too much to it. Youve confused me now scooby on which to do, help  Oh also, rekon if i did your video workout i could chuck in a few backwards lunges and something for the shoulders too? |

Lunges are the most feared and avoided leg exercise, and people are usually more willing to squat than to do lunges for the simple reason of lunges begin extremely hard to perform, a unilateral movement with complex motoric patterns which also gives your heartbeat a surge as a sprint. Lunges are for everyone, regardless of their level of experience. |
