Halloween night runs on candy, so dinner needs to do the heavy lifting. This list rounds up 27 spooky mains that actually fill people up: mummy meatloaves, jack-o’-lantern stuffed peppers, eyeball meatballs, skull pot pies, witches brew stews and more.
Most of them landing between 20 and 40 grams of protein per serving.
A dumbbell goblet squat is a squat you do while holding one dumbbell upright against your chest. It trains your quads, glutes, and core while keeping a bar off your back.
Below you get real pounds by experience level, the point where your hold quits before your legs do, and what to do once the dumbbell gets too heavy to hold.
Most active adults on creatine want roughly 3 to 4 liters of total fluid a day, plus 12 to 16 oz of water with every 5 gram scoop.
That is the short answer to how much water should you drink with creatine. No gallon jug required.
Your back foot hunts for the floor. The dumbbell swings out to the side, your hip rolls open, and the set ends because you tipped over instead of because your hamstring gave up.
That is the single leg RDL experience for most people, and it gets blamed on bad balance.
You can be loading your glutes ten seconds after you sit down.
The dumbbell hip thrust is a glute exercise where you rest a dumbbell across your hip crease, plant your upper back on a low bench, and drive your hips up.
The dumbbell RDL, short for Romanian deadlift, is a hip hinge. You hold a dumbbell in each hand, push your hips backward with a slight knee bend, lower the weights to about mid-shin, then drive your hips forward to stand tall.
It builds the back of your thighs and your glutes with almost no equipment.
The seated dumbbell shoulder press has you sit against a backrest and press a dumbbell in each hand overhead.
Therefore, the bench holds your torso and your delts spend the whole set pressing. Nothing goes into staying upright.
The swiss ball hamstring curl is a bodyweight exercise where you lie on your back, rest your heels on a stability ball, lift your hips, and pull the ball in with your hamstrings.
No machine, no cable stack, and it still loads both of the hamstrings’ jobs in the same rep.
Rear delt face pulls are a cable exercise where you pull a rope toward your face and finish by pulling it apart, elbows high.
They train the back of your shoulders and the small stabilizing muscles around the joint, but only when you lead with your elbows and finish with your hands rotated back.
The chest supported row has you lie face down on an angled bench and row the weight toward your hips, so the bench holds your torso instead of your lower back holding it.
Nothing fights to keep you in position, so every rep goes into the muscles you want to grow.
