Dumbbell Workout Cards - 50 Card Exercise Deck

I've had these cards for four days. I think I'm going to really enjoy using them. I'm 70 years old, in good health. My weight is good, though I'm sure my BMI could stand to be a lot better (I do intermittent fasting, and am moderately low-carb in my eating, but I can't completely control my wife's decisions when it comes to cooking pasta, bread and such). I have never been a heavy or consistent exerciser. I'm hoping that with the help of these cards I can make a new start, and follow through with a regular fitness routine that I will stick with. My goals are 1) to rebuild lost muscle mass, 2) get stronger, and 3) to develop a physique that will make people gasp when I tell them my age(!). I do think numbers 1 and 2 are achievable. As for #3, we'll just have to see! One of my problems with exercising in the past has been boredom over doing the same routine every day. These cards should provide plenty of variety. Now the main obstacle will be simply keeping myself from skipping days, which always leads to skipping weeks and then months. But I do feel that by alternating and mixing up different exercises, I'll have a better chance at overcoming such avoidance. There are 50 exercises in the deck, plus some suggested routines for working different parts of the body. I am ignoring the suggested routines and plan instead to follow my own loose and unstructured routine, basically just shuffling the cards and choosing a half dozen at random to work with each day. Since I'm just now starting, that could change depending on how well (or not) such a routine meets my needs. I plan to start exercising for "real" tomorrow. I have spent the past few days, since the cards arrived, trying out each exercise in turn in order to create a whittled-down deck that will meet my needs and abilities. First, I set aside all the cards that require equipment I don't have, such as a weight bench and step-box (or whatever that thing is called). Then, I set aside all the cards with exercises that I found "impossible;" that is, I couldn't do even a single rep. After my winnowing process, I was left with 28 cards to use. I think this will provide plenty of variety, as I'll probably only be using a different half-dozen or so each day. As my strength and confidence improves, and I acquire a bench, etc., I may try to add back in some of the other cards. But I'm not going to worry about that right now. Let's see if I can be consistent and stay motivated with just those 28 first. My plan right now is to do three sets of 10 to 15 reps of each day's chosen exercises. Note that that is purely aspirational at this point! Although none of the 28 exercises were impossible for me to perform when I was trying them out, many were definitely hard. I expect that I'll have to build up to my target reps/sets over some time. This will give me a good goal to shoot for, though. As to the cards themselves, I can tell that a lot of thought went into their design. The illustrations and the instructions for the exercises are minimalist (a necessity for fitting on the card format), but clear and to the point. I had no trouble understanding any of them. In the past I have tried following exercises from books, YouTube videos and fitness apps, but I think having these cards at hand will be much more usable. They'll be easy to flip through, shuffle up, and lay out close to where I'm exercising, and therefore more readily referenceable. I'm glad I bought these cards, and am optimistic that they'll be just what I needed to kick-start my new commitment to getting fitter.

I’ve been using the NewMe Fitness Workout Cards for over a year now, and I can confidently say they’re some of the best fitness tools I’ve picked up. I own quite a few sets: bodyweight, dumbbell, resistance band, yoga, stretching, and even cable. Whenever they go on sale for around $10, I grab another one. The cards are sturdy and easy to read, so they hold up well even after months of flipping through them. What I love most is how they keep my workouts interesting. I don’t always use them during my actual workout, but I use them a lot when I’m building my weekly plans. They help spark new ideas and combinations, so I’m not stuck doing the same routine over and over. Each deck also includes pre-built workouts for beginners and advanced users, which is great for days when I don’t feel like coming up with my own plan. Even though I use the Hevy app to log and build my workouts, these cards are a perfect complement. There’s just something about physically laying them out and mixing things up that helps me visualize the week ahead. If you like variety, enjoy planning your workouts, or just want a creative way to stay motivated, these are definitely worth adding to your gym setup.

I got these to incorporate micro-workouts throughout my day (at home desk job) and they serve that purpose. I randomly pick 3 cards and do 2 sets each. They are sturdy, large print, and easy to use/understand. Varied exercises, easy to tweak (or pick a new card) if it is too hard for me. My 2 major complaints, which are manageable: (1) I thought others were being ridiculous about the slipperiness of the cards, but it is actually kind of annoying to have them spinning about when your trying to lay them out (LOL). (2) For the love of all things holy, why aren't they using different colors for different groupings - back, core, lower body, upper body, total body?!?

These Yoga Cards are such a great find! I love how easy they make it to build and follow my own yoga flow. No app, no phone needed. Each card is beautifully printed with both the English and Sanskrit names, along with clear illustrations that even beginners can follow confidently. The plastic material is durable and easy to wipe clean, which makes them perfect for at-home sessions or travel. I especially appreciate the pre-made sequences included because they help me mix things up while still feeling structured. Among similar products I’ve seen, these stand out for their quality, clarity, and versatility. Whether you’re just getting into yoga or looking to deepen your personal practice, this set is a thoughtful, practical addition to your routine. Bold colors and great sizing on the cards so they're easy to read!

I bought these a couple months ago and looked through them, but didn't use them right away. Shortly thereafter, I ended up buying a used Bowflex so I starting using that instead. I put the cards away and forgot about them. Last week, (8/6/2020) I went to my first ever exercise class "using (bring your own) dumb bells and a mat". I used 5 lb. weights and by the next day, I wished I would have used my 3 lb weights! I'm 50 years old and put approximately 1,000 miles a year on my treadmill. I can run for miles. I actually thought I was in pretty good shape! Well, that workout class proved to me that I was NOT! I was sore for four days! I can't imagine how the others felt that weren't in as good as shape as me! Anyway, I looked around the house and found these cards again and located some of the exercises the instructor showed us during that first exercise and I started doing them (once I healed up) every other day! That first class was a good enough push to get me motivated to start using dumb bells and I was so thankful that I already had these cards bought so I could use them for reference. I laid out some of the cards, about 10 of them, and did three sets of 8 reps. I can't wait to see what she shows us tomorrow! That will be my second class. Only three more and the class is finished. I'm going to take my cards with me and show them to her and see what she thinks of them. I'm sure she'll think they're awesome! Oh, by the way, the instructor was using 10 lb. weights and flung them around like nothing. She was 45 years old and a petite little thing. She really kicked my BUTT and I can't wait to tell her so! Use the cards! They're fun and easy to use and if you keep it up, you might end up being a real hot mama or a ripped, toned man in just a few months! No pain, no gain.

These cards are easy to read and easy to use. I purchased another brand and returned it because there was one color photo on the front and written instructions on the back. These are much nicer with the full graphics of the exercise on the front and written instructions on the back making them very simple to use. The price on these were better also. The size is nice & the surface is non glare but waterproof. I will most likely buy the second set. I believe the advantage these cards have over others is the ability to have visual instructions on the front of the card that make them simple to use.

I bought the NewMe yoga cards. I've been doing yoga for a decade. I love doing in person classes but only go once a week; a regular practice requires more commitment than that. Have tried videos at home several times but I never cared much for that format - my TV sits up high which makes it hard to see from the floor, and the best video instructors are never as personable or enjoyable an in person class. There are currently several different brands of yoga cards available on this shopping portal - I've tried several so far and the NewMe ones are the best I've seen yet. These cards are bigger, pleasant to handle and they're constructed of sturdy plastic; not paper like a deck of cheap playing cards. The Sanskrit and "common" name for each pose is written on the front of each card. On the flip side the poses are broken down, sometimes with modifications for the more difficult ones. The different "flow series" suggestions in the deck are great (a flow series is just a series of poses which make up a routine or session). Finally I've found a system for doing yoga at home which actually works for me. I put on some music, put out my mat and work through one of the suggested sessions in the deck. Later on I'll make my own series. So many options! I do need to come up with a better way to store my cards. As I said before, the cards themselves are great - nice quality plastic stock, but the case they are housed in is flimsy and it takes some time to cram them back into the deck once I'm done. This is just a small suggestion to the manufacturer though and not a serious criticism. Overall a great purchase. Great layout and design, quality card stock and printing and the explanation for each pose is well done. Whether you're brand new to yoga or a seasoned pro, you'll find these cards are easy and enjoyable to work with. Namaste!

These are fine. They're printed on great, durable card stock. A handful of the cards will show you how to organize a variety of workouts, and how to get through them. As a stand in for a trainer, they're not bad. What they DIDN'T do for me was give me a lot of options outside of exercises I already knew, and many of the exercises are built on the abilities I was looking to navigate around (like pushups, and chin/pull-ups. So, what I would say as a summary is that these are a good stack of cards that build variation on basic exercises, but if you need something that doesn't put stress on your joints (like your shoulders, elbows, or wrists), then you may need something out.

Love these for our gymnastics kids!

I yah even virtually the full set of all these cards and they are worth every penny.

Very high quality cards. I recommend them.

Ejercicios súper claros y dinámicos. Las tarjetas están hechas de un material para que puedan durar. Hay una gran variedad de ejercicios. He empezado el HITT y es genial, espero realizar el resto de ejercicios que ofrecen.

I really like this product and is perfect for what I need and want. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to exercise at home.
