I'm a personal trainer — forget heavy weights and try this 3-move workout to build strong arms and abs

Three moves to strengthen your abs and arms without lifting heavy weights? Yes, please. These exercises build strength in your triceps, shoulders and core muscles using a combination of pushing, stabilizing and holding exercises designed to test your upper body.

You won’t need any equipment to try this workout, but I would recommend one of the best yoga mats, despite this not being a yoga routine; that’s because you’ll be supporting your own weight on your hands, which can be challenging on your wrists. I also recommend a box, bench, or chair for the dips.
