If you haven’t heard of the program yet, Gladiator Body Workout is an at-home fitness program that combines bodyweight and dumbbell exercises to create 6- and 4-week programs. Gladiator Body Workout does have some competitors, however, the one thing that separates Gladiator Body Workout from other programs is the unique exercises.

Personally, I love high intensity, high power movements. I am referring to movements such as the snatch, the swing and the clean. The snatch and clean are traditionally barbell movements, but CoachLomax, author of Gladiator Body Workout, shows you how to do them with dumbbells.

It also teaches you a number of other unique compound and hybrid moves, like the Turkish Raise, which is proving to be one of the most challenging moves I’ve ever done with a dumbbell.

8 Unique Moves I’ve Learned With Gladiator Body Workout:

I thought I knew most of the exercises you could do with a dumbbell and your body weight. However, there were a number of movements that I had never seen anywhere. I’d say 30-40% of the moves in this manual I’ve never seen before.

And for the average person who has been following magazine workouts for most of their life, at least 80% of the moves will be brand new. But, let me share with you 8 of these movements:

1. Dumbbell Saxon Side Bend
2. Dumbbell Alternate Floor Press
3. Dumbbell Golf Squat
4. Dumbbell Front Squat, See Saw Press
5. Bodyweight Lying Hip Rollers
6. dumbbell sumo deadlift
7. Bent dumbbell press
8. dumbbell military press

Coach Lomax Training Methods

The second thing I love about the Lomax trainer is that it is not limited to just one training method. Variety is the key to long-term fitness. Just when your body adjusts to a program, you have to do something to change it and make your body grow again.
