ARM WORKOUTS

Boosting upper body strength requires attention to your arms. Strengthened arm muscles make everyday tasks easier and promote long-term bone health.

Here are some of the best exercises for the arms:

Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, lift weights from thighs to shoulders with elbows glued to hips, and repeat in a controlled manner.

Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, lift weights from sides to shoulders with elbows pressed in, and repeat with controlled movements.

Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, palms facing outward, lift weights to shoulders with elbows pressed in, then lower and repeat.

Stand with feet hip-width apart, lift dumbbells overhead with palms facing each other, then lower and extend to complete the rep, keeping shoulders relaxed.

Sit on a chair, hands grasping the seat, slide off to support your weight with hands and feet, then lower and lift your body by bending and extending your elbows.
