b. Maintaining this position, raise arms to shoulder height, keeping elbows slightly bent. Squeeze shoulder blades together, then lower weights. Do 15 reps. Rest 30 seconds; switch sides and repeat. Do 1 to 3 sets per side.

Keep it easy: Skip the lunge and do the flyes sitting on a bench or step.

I've been doing this workout for almost three weeks and I LOVE it. It takes longer than 30 minutes to do a full 3 sets of each exercise but I've seen a definite increase in upper body definition and have lost lower body inches.
