My NROL Experience
Hello everyone, new member here. I joined because I am currently doing Fat Loss I from NROL and am enjoying it - and glad to find a place where many others are going through the same workouts. One thing I've noticed is that my balance and ability to do lunges has greatly improved, to the point I can do the walking lunges w/twist (although I have to return to start each time) without falling over every time. And, even though I'm listing weights as proof of progress, I'm coming to learn that, per the book, the weights are just the tools to get to my goals, not the goals themselves. Still, it's nice to see a progression in the numbers.
Here's my progress from the Break-In workout:
Workout A: First Workout
Deadlift 2x15@50 (2 25lb dumbbells)
Step Up 2x15 each supersetted with
Dumbbell 1-arm Shoulder Press w/Lean 2x15@20
Close Grip Lat Pulldown 1x15@100, 1x15@120 supersetted with
Reverse Crunch 2x20
Workout A: Last Workout
Deadlift 2x15@90 (2 45lb dumbbells)
Step Up 1x15@50, 1x15@60 each supersetted with
Dumbbell 1-arm Shoulder Press w/Lean 1x15@25, 1x15@30
Close Grip Lat Pulldown 1x15@150, 1x15@170 supersetted with
Reverse Crunch 2x20

Swiss Ball Crunch with Medicine Ball 2x20@12
Workout B: Last Workout

I have to do Fat Loss I A at home today, but don't have access to a cable machine, what exercise could I do with just dumbbells to substitute?
