SUMMER ARMS!

I saw this workout on skinnyms.com today and had to share.  My arms have always been a part of my body that can always use work, but get neglected.

Wouldn't it be amazing to have arms like this before summer?? (okay..or year round!)


Monday

Tricep Push ups – 12 reps
Rest 20 seconds
Bicep curls – 12 reps

Tricep Dips – 20 repsRest 1 minute before beginning 4 Minute Fat Blaster
4 Minute Fat Blaster
 via Youtube (see below), or it’s official name, Tabata Intervals. You will perform the circuit 2 times which = 4 minutes. This routine is designed to continue burning fat for up to 24 hours.
Tabata Formula:
Complete routine 2 times
20 seconds for exercise + 10 seconds rest = 30 seconds
30 x 8(exercises) = 240 seconds / 60 seconds = 4 minutes
