Denise Crew
Elevate your arms to a whole new level with our 15-minute supersculpting body bar workout.

Row and Raise

What you'll need: a 4- to 9-pound weighted bar, such as the Classic Body Bar ($24 to $32, bodybar.com), or a set of 3- to 5-pound dumbbells

Targets: Shoulders, back, triceps, butt, and quads

  • Stand with feet hip-width apart, gripping center of bar with right hand, arms by sides, palms facing in.
  • Lunge right leg back so that it's extended behind you and left knee is bent 90 degrees; hinge forward at hips slightly and place left hand on top of left thigh.
  • Drive right elbow behind you to bring bar by ribs, keeping it parallel to floor.
  • Extend right arm out to side at shoulder level.
  • Bend right elbow to bring bar back to ribs, then lower arm by side to complete 1 rep.
  • Maintaining lunge throughout, do 15 reps. Switch sides and repeat. Do 3 sets.

Decent workout, but definitely takes longer than 15 minutes to do 3 sets of each workout. I do wish it was a little more balanced, it seems to be focused primarily on shoulders, which I thought was odd.
