But, with these six upper body exercises, you’ll gain all the benefits and more of a regular ab workout, without the extra time. This 15-minute upper body workout will not only build your arms, your chest, and your back, but every one of these exercises is also going to work your abdominals. So this workout will include as I mentioned 6 exercises, but they will be broken down into 3 supersets at 5 minutes each. So, the first superset will pair chin-ups with spiderman pushups. Now, just because these aren’t specific abdominal exercises don’t think your abs will walk away unscathed. I remember training a client before and a couple of days after doing the chinup exercise she commented how shocked she was that her abs were so sore. So, with proper form, the chin-up exercise can very powerfully target your abs. For proper form, begin in the dead hang position. Now, keeping your body tight, brace your abs and pull your body up and chin over the bar, then in a controlled fashion, lower your body down. You will noticeably feel this exercise working your lats and your biceps. Perform enough repetitions that take you until one short of failure. For example, if you can do 15 repetitions, then only do 14 and so on. After the chin-up exercise, you will move into

UPPER BODY SUPERSET

11


CLICK HERE for a FREE WORKOUT!! www.turbulencetraining.com Today you’ll discover a powerful upper body superset that will let you work your chest, back and arms, all within just 10 minutes and using only two exercises. The first exercise is the Chin-up. So, with a shoulder-width a part, underhand grip, and in the dead hang position, pull your chest up to the bar, squeezing your shoulder blades together at the top. Try to use your biceps as much as you can in this exercise. Then slowly lower your body back down and repeat for 8-12 reps. If you can do more than that, then add a little weight around your waist, using a weight belt. Next, you’ll go immediately into a dumbbell Chest Press. While doing this exercise you want to use your triceps as much as possible. So, bring your elbows in a little bit, and in addition to pressing through the chest, try to press through the triceps. By making these minor adjustments to emphasize the use of your bi’s and tri’s, you’ll really work these muscles a lot harder than you normally would. So once you’ve completed all the reps for the chin-up exercise, pick a weight that you can do 8-12 times and immediately go into the chest press. With your back on the bench, press the dumbbells up and in, and then down and out. Once you’ve done all the reps, rest about a minute and then go right back into the superset, completing three supersets altogether.Visit Turbulence Training to get your FREE sample fat burning workout.
