Maybe your gym is super crowded and youd rather not idle at every single station waiting your turn.
Or quite possibly just the thought of asking other gym-goers if you canshare space or equipmentgives you unwelcome anxiety.
So its as simple and stress-free as possible.

Before jumping into this circuit, take a few minutes to get your blood flowing with a quickwarm-up.
Heres all the intel you need for a full-body gym workout that really couldnt be more convenient.
Find a spot, grab your dumbbells, and get ready to work!
The Workout
What you need:One set of dumbbells.
To find the weight, choose a pair that feels challenging (but doable!)
to press over your head for 10 reps.
Beyond that, you just need enough space to accommodate your body in plank position, Delgado-Lugo says.
(And you might want a mat for that too.)
Repeat the circuit 3 to 5 times total.
Thruster
This exercise is a two-for-one: It combines a squat with an overhead press.
To boot, youll also get your heart rate going when you push the weights upward.
Or eliminate the overhead press altogether and just focus on weighted squats, she adds.
Chest Press
This move is all about your upper body, specifically yourchestand triceps.
Focus on holding your core strong and squeezing your shoulder blades back and together.
Focus on pressing your back firmly into the floor as you push upward on the weight the entire time.
Make it easier by dropping the dumbbell and performing reps with just your bodyweight.
