Amanda's End of Summer Arm Challenge

It may be nearing the end of summer but it’s still not too late to get those toned arms you’ve always wanted. Whether you want to show a little extra skin on the beach or impress your roommates with your new guns, this arm workout is the one for you. Here are a few moves to try every week.

(1) The Bicep Curl

Standing feet shoulder-width apart, curl a 5-10lb weight into your chest keeping your elbows in.

(2) The Hammer Curl

8-10x

Standing feet shoulder-width apart, curl a 5-10lb weight parallel to your body.

(3) The Renegade Row

6-8x on each side

Get into a plank position with two 8-12lb weights in your hands. Pull your elbows back working into the underside of your arm.

(4) The Standing Shoulder Press

8x

Standing feet shoulder-width apart, bring your arms up above your shoulders ending with a slight bend in your elbows. Make sure you don’t lock your elbows.

(5) Double Arm Raises

10x (at each angle aka 5 times outward and 5 times forward)

Standing feet shoulder-width apart, bring your arms straight out sideways stopping slighty below your shoulders. Bring your arms back down and then straight forward in front of you.

Woo you’re done!
