The majority of us don’t have hours to train in the gym, but does that mean you can’t build some serious upper-body muscle? Absolutely not. In fact, you don’t need to waste time grinding through endless sets of 10 different exercises.

According to Sports Scientist, Dr. Pak Androulakis-Korakakis, you just need two exercises to build upper body muscle – and no, the bench press isn’t one of them. In fact, neither requires a barbell or even dumbbells.
