Workout plan means a plan of your exercise routine. Every bodybuilder follows a certain workout plan when starting exercise in gym. Workout plan is important to make sure that you exercise according to your physical conditions and get best results out of it. Having a good workout plan for your daily bodybuilding exercise is perhaps the most important of all the factors which contribute to bodybuilding. Below I will explain the importance of workout plan and reasons for being having it:

1- First thing which highlights the importance of having a workout plan is your body structure. You see everyone has a different body structure and if we broadly differentiate body structures, categories would be 1- skinny guys, 2- medium level muscular guys, 3- muscular guys and 4- fat guys. So your workout plan actually decides how to build your body keeping in view these aforementioned 4 categories. So each of the above categories would have a different workout plan to make sure maximum benefits. In short, you cannot just adopt any plan and start exercising. Nature of your body and physical structures is important to decide which plan you need and what customizations to make.

2- Second important thing is that having a good workout plan keeps you focused in your bodybuilding routine. You make plans for performing different exercises for different body parts and also plan for changing/modifying them. So those who have a workout plan get far better results than those who just go to gym and start exercising without any plan.

One important thing which you must keep in mind is that always consult your trainer to help you build a plan which is tailored according to your body needs. Do not try to make your workout plans yourself because you may not get best of the results that way.

Dumbbells are very effective and a good source of bodybuilding. They can be used for exercising almost all parts of the body and are easy to manage due to their small size. Dumbbells are often used in home exercises. Below are best dumbbell workouts for bodybuilding:

1- Best exercise you can get out of dumbbells is of course bicep curl. How you perform it is that you hold dumbbells in both hands and stand straight with your feet apart equal to shoulder width. Then you slowly raise the dumbbell in the form of the curl towards your shoulder and your thumb points to the side. Then you slowly lower your dumbbell back to the starting position and repeat this same exercise with other dumbbell in other hand and perform reps. This is a good bicep exercise and isolates the muscles.

2- Another exercise for shoulders you can perform is by holding dumbbells in your hands at the height of your shoulders with your palms facing away from your body. Raise the dumbbells slowly and bring back to the starting position. This exercise should be done slowly to avoid any elbow injuries. Exercise should be done with weight in both hands.

3- Third exercise you can perform with your dumbbells is the tricep one. You can sit on a chair and hold dumbbells in both arms and then lift them with both arms over your head. Then slowly lower them and make your arms staright again. Again this exercise should be done in a controlled manner to avoid any jerks.

4- Similarly, you can perform exercise for the upper part of chest and front side of shoulders by front raise. Take weight in each hand with palms inward and stand. Keeping arms straight, raise the weight till they get horizontal to the floor. Lower the arms and repeat this process in a controlled manner.

5- Squats can be used for lower body workouts. You can do it by resting the weights on the shoulders and keeping the back straight and then bending till your thighs get parallel to the ground. Then you can slowly raise yourself to the original position and repeat this exercise. This exercise should be performed with straight back and without jerks because it can harm your back-bone.

You can use dumbbells to perform above best dumbbell workouts to get good results in your bodybuilding.
