Does anyone know any exercises other than Chest press, bicep curl, and Military press that I can do with Dumbbells? I am going to start weight lifting tonight so I need some advice, exercises, tips, etc. Thanks guys!

    I bought a set of bowflex selectech adjustable dumbbell (1090s) and I feel like you can get a pretty good base with just them. Google is chalk full of great exercises that are dumbbell only ( for those trying to save space like myself) I'm no expert but I've made awesome progress with just dumbbells and a few body weight exercises. You can do squats with dumbbells, overhead tricep extensions, front and lateral raises(shoulders), calf raises, and so on. I follow Jay Cutler (4 time Mr. Olympia I think?) On Facebook and he suggests dumbbell exercises are better than barbell anyways. But all in all a quick Google search will definitely help you with pictures, descriptions, and proper form for any dumbell exercise you want to know about :)
