Optimize single dumbbell routine?
Hi fellow fitness enthusiasts and personal trainers.

Thanks to my gym closing down and me moving, I'll need to train at least 6 months without a gym.

At home I have a 15kg dumbbell. Since I'm not very strong, this will be enough at least for biceps, triceps and shoulders.

This is my routine I'm using now (all using just this one dumbbell)

Biceps: Sitting biceps curl Standing biceps curl Hammer curl

Triceps: Overhead push

Shoulders: Lateral raise Front raise Dumbbell shoulder press
Back fly

Chest: One arm chest press

Back: Back row

In this exact order. Not training legs because I'm running and cycling quite a lot.

Do you have any tips to optimalize this routine/things I'm doing wrong?

My goal is muscle growth and I was wondering if I could achieve this with this routine?

Not exactly the answer you are hoping for but the following resource could prove very useful: www.reddit.com/r/bodyweightfitness
You can get some significant strength gains using just your bodyweight and very basic playground style equipment (bars/boxes).

If you are set on using a dumbbell here is a resource that gives you more options: dumbbell-exercises.com/
