Free Weight Exercises
Free Weight Exercises
Free weights are simply weights, such as dumbbells or kettlebells, which aren’t attached to a piece of equipment. You can move freely when using them, and you don’t have to be at the gym to make it work. Because of this, there are loads of useful, effective exercises you can do from the comfort of your own home with just a few pieces of kit—just your free weights and a positive attitude. Let’s get going.
