*****************************************
Do you want leaner, stronger arms with incredible arm definition and toned muscle?
Today we’re sculpting the deltoids (shoulders) triceps, and biceps at home with zero equipment to get those lean toned arms you’ve always wanted.
This workout is one of my all-time favorite at-home shoulder workouts; the best part is you don’t even need any equipment.
This one is guaranteed to increase strength, improve definition, and leave your arms completely ready for tank tops and swimsuits regardless of the season.
Let’s move on to the workout!
For this workout, my main focus is toning and sculpting your shoulders, specifically your deltoids. We’re going to be doing 6 upper-body exercises in circuit format: we’ll perform ABC three times through and then move on to DEF 3 times through.
We’re going to hit this one in timed intervals so no need to count reps. If you’re looking for an interval timer you can find an app on your phone or follow this link to see my favorite one from Amazon (affiliate link): https://amzn.to/2P1Qvyq
