20-Min Arm Workout for Women Over 40

20-Min Arm Workout for Women Over 40

20-Min Arm Workout for Women Over 40

Blast your triceps, biceps and shoulders with this quick arm workout for women over 40.

This 20-minute Arm Workout is gonna torch your triceps – as well as the rest of your arm and your shoulders.

And how do I know this?

Cause mine were done by the end of the workout. Done like dinner 🍝

For this arm workout, we will focus on compound moves that use your arm muscles (plus more) for the first four moves, follow that with four arm isolation exercises and then finish our arms completely with a ladder drill.

I find this type of training, compound to isolation, really effective!

PS – 🆕 Need a little one-on-one, let’s-focus-on-you?

DAY 2 – FIT IN 15 CHALLENGE

I think you are going to LOVE this workout. It’s intense, it will get results, and the time flies by.

For this upper body workout, I decided to switch things up and do a ladder workout, counting reps instead of using timed intervals.

I explain at the beginning of the workout what to do if your reps don’t match mine, as well as how to modify the burpees… or get rid of them altogether.

In total, we will be performing 75 reps of each exercise, while touching a ton of calories.

You ready? Awesome! Let’s begin.

a pair of light, moderate & heavy and a chair for beginners

THE WORKOUT

1. Burpees
