DO YOU WANT SUPER SCULPTED ARMS FOR SUMMER? 💪
ARE YOU INTERESTED IN AN EASY & SIMPLE WAY TO WORKOUT YOUR ARMS?
WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE ABLE TO DO THE EXERCISES ANYWHERE? 👍
then . . . . CLIMB ABOARD! ⚓️
Summer is JUST AROUND THE CORNER and I want to help you achieve your fitness goals! Many women want to strengthen, tone and sculpt their arms, especially during the warm months when you are wearing sleeveless tops, dresses and swimsuits. So, here is another fabulously simple & easy way to get your arm workout done while at home, outside, the gym or even while traveling! ✈️
Why do I love this workout? Because you can create awesome sculpted arms from resistance bands, because you have continuous resistance while using these bands for workouts. They are also extremely light & portable so when the weather is nice you can go outside and get your workout done and also pack them in your suitcase for workouts on the road! 🚕
EQUIPMENT NEEDED: These resistance bands will be your new best friend to achieving strong & sculpted arms! You can use the different strength bands depending on the exercise, there is 5 bands in the set and you can combine multiple bands to find your ideal resistance. These bands are so lightweight that I take them with me when I travel to get a great workout in my hotel room or even take it outside for my workout.
SUPER SCULPTED ARMS WORKOUT
BICEP CURL – you will be able to show off your defined arms & you will love the way your biceps look when you sculpt & tone them doing this exercise!
- Stand upright with core tight and engaged (pelvic tilted in to protect lower back) . Grab the band your left hand, then cross the right hand over to grab the bottom part of the band.
- Keep your right arm tight to hold the band while you SLOWLY curl with your left hand engaging your bicep muscle, then SLOWLY return to starting position.
LAT PULLDOWN – Where are your Lats? You know this area as the gooey part of your back that hangs over your bra area, let’s tone it up for summer!
- Stand upright with core tight and engaged (pelvic tilted in to protect lower back) . Grab the band with both hands, then raise both hands overhead keeping arms straight.
- SLOWLY pull the bands apart, keeping elbows out to your side, using your lat muscles (the muscle behind your arm pits), then SLOWLY return to starting position.
TRICEP PULL – many of you know this muscle as the “dingle-dangle” area that moves when you wave under you arms. . . no more, time to tighten it up!
- Stand upright with core tight and engaged (pelvic tilted in to protect lower back) . Grab the band with both hands, behind your back keeping the band close to your booty and palms facing inward.
- SLOWLY extend your arms apart, keeping them straight the entire time, then SLOWLY return to starting position. This is a very small and controlled moved, but don’t let that fool you, you will feel it.
OUTWARD BICEP CURL – get ready to show off your “new guns” in your summer clothes!
- Stand upright with core tight and engaged (pelvic tilted in to protect lower back) . Grab the band your right hand, then cross the left hand over to grab the bottom part of the band.
- Rotate your arm outward, keeping your left arm tight to hold the band while you SLOWLY curl with your right hand engaging your bicep muscle, then SLOWLY return to starting position.
TRICEP EXTENSION – this is a great way to tone up your tricep muscle as well as your shoulder muscles, which gives a woman a strong & sculpted look!
- Stand upright with core tight and engaged (pelvic tilted in to protect lower back) . Grab the band with both hands, behind your back keeping the band close to your booty and then when your left hand keep the band tight near your back while the right hand grabs the band up high hear your head, keeping your elbow raised upright.
- SLOWLY extend your right arm, then SLOWLY return to starting position. This is a very small and controlled move, and requires great strength.
HYDRATE: I can not stress enough the importance of staying well hydrated this time of year, especially if you are exercising outdoors. I absolutely love my insulated water bottle to keep my water cold, because I hate drinking water that has gotten warm or even hot while sitting outside in the sun or in your car. I promise you will not regret carrying your water bottle around with you all day, and your body will feel better and have more energy by keeping well hydrated! 💦
YOU WILL NOW BE READY FOR SUMMER TO ARRIVE WITH YOUR SUPER SCULPTED ARMS!

Lori Parodi says
Hey girl! These are great. Where can I get the
Bands? I typically do three sets of 10 for each exercise. Is that enough? Feel like I’m needing more?
I love your workout studio. I want to go!
Hugs.

Hi Lori! I love these bands for exercising, especially on the road! 3 sets of 10 reps would be good if your band is challenging you during your workout, if it is not, then increase your band strength or then do 3 sets 15 reps. You can link on any of my pictures of equipment and it will direct you to the item to purchase, so click on my band picture on this blog post to get the bands. These bands are great because they have varying strength with each color! Hope that helps!
Oh yes, I love working out outside when I can ! 😊Hugs ! 💗
