I wanted to share with you guys a video of my upper body workout. By performing this workout three times a week, you will be working your chest, triceps, back, abdominals and core/glutes.
I broke down the exercises featured in this video into what body parts they work, for those who may be interested in understanding the way that these exercises strengthen your entire upper body.
As you can see, the five exercises work not just one muscle, but a series of other ones. The best part of having a well-rounded upper body day a few times a week is that you can have one rest day or two in between your next upper body workout. This will give your muscles enough time to rest before you hit them from all angles again.
