Good Morning Everyone!
I hope you’ve been enjoying the workouts I have posted this week! I included links to each workout we have done this week below, for easy reference. It’s a great one to Bookmark or Pin if you want to keep the schedule handy.
Today’s workout is focused on the Arms. For the workout you will need dumbbells, or something to add resistance to your workout. Muscles give your arms shape. It’s not anything to be afraid of! A lot of women avoid working their arms so they won’t look “bulky” but it takes a LOT of work & purposeful effort to get a woman to look bulky in the arms. So don’t be scared! Grab some dumbbells, as heavy as you can handle with good form, and go for it! If you have lighter dumbbells you can increase the # of reps to maximize the challenge.
During this workout the last 2-3 Reps of each exercise should be very challenging for you!

Workout 1: 30 Minute Full Body Home Workout & Fat Burn
Workout 2: Extended Plank Workout: Core Workout for Love Handles, Abs & Back

*Include 1-2 Rest Days this week. I also recommend choosing one Yoga or stretch video. Flexibility reduces your risk of injury, AND improve the speed of your results! The increased range of motion can increase the power of each movement. You can find those here: https://www.benderfitness.com/category/yoga.

Complete 8-15 reps per exercise. 30 second plank between exercises.
*If you are using lighter weights you can increase your reps to 20 as long as you can maintain good form throughout each exercise.

Great arm challenge!
Amazing arm routine, many thanks! I completed this workout twice, it took me 30:55. 15 reps of each exercise per round, Supine Dumbbell Extension and Alternating Deltoid Raise with 5 kg dumbbells, Deadlift with 11,8 kg dumbbells, other exercises with 7 kg dumbbells. The most challenging for me were Alternating Deltoid Raises, especially for left arm 🙂
