Another day, another workout. But this one is for those of you who want to tone and strengthen your upper body using just a pair of dumbbells. That’s right, no complicated equipment required or needing to leave the house and head down to the gym after work – just these eight moves and some dumbbells are plenty enough to build muscle.
This workout is also interesting because you do the entire thing seated, not standing. This has a number of benefits. Firstly, it’s great for those who have joint issues who experience a lot of pain from standing, or struggle with mobility. But, secondly, being seated completely isolates your upper body, meaning only these muscles do the work without any recruitment from your lower body, which causes them to work harder.
