    I have been doing dumbbell exercises for 6 years (since I was in 7th grade) and I have tuned them well. I do bicep curls while standing up (biceps, obviously), shrugs (stand with arm down with bell, then lift shoulder only as high as can up past neck), and laying down to do a half bench press - high reps. I use two bells because it lowers tension and stress on the back (results from imbalance), and it is a huge timesaver (about half, of course). I also use them for push-ups while my feet are on a chair for maximum chest exercises, as well as hundreds of curls. Just with these exercises, my workout is 25 mins a day and I have gone from using 8 pounders to 50 pounders in that time, only every other day, and still rising. Good luck.
