In some workouts that I find, I’m not always sure how to do a specific exercise. Sometimes there are several names or variations of the exercise as well. I figured I would do some of the work for you and put together a list of common exercises I use in my workouts.
Just click the link, and it will take you to a YouTube video of that exercise. Unfortunately, some videos have a lot of talking, but I chose them because they are the versions I do of each exercise. I think they all get the point across. Some are pretty basic, just showing you the exercise; others give you the details on the proper form. Try your best to imitate the people in the videos, and you should be all set!
Let me know if you have any questions. Hope this helps clear any workout confusion for you!
