Did someone leave their heart in SF? I really miss that city!
These are some of my favourite upper-body moves – thanks for the great workout Tina!
And that’s a really pretty pic
Love chest flys!
What a gorgeous picture at the top of the post
YESSS Upper Body! Get it, girl!
Love the shoulder raises!
Great upper body workout!
Nice! Strength = Yes, please.
Loving the C & W! Can’t wait (weight?) to try them out. (Horrible joke, but for some reason I feel like you’d like it.)
That picture is so gorgeous! Love it. Have a great weekend!
I stopped weight lifting for a little while because I was moving and starting an internship with crazy hours so I could only run here and there, when I finally got back to weights I had to use 5 lb weights even though I’d been using 15lbs before for exercises like these. I hate how a few months will reverse my progress!
Nice! I need to start doing more upper body strength training. And I need to go with a plan of action. When I just go there and do it, I don’t feel like I get as good of a workout than if I came with something written down.
Just reading the words ‘chest flys’ makes me shutter. Just don’t do them on a ball unless you’re real sure you know what you’re doing and/ or have had a proff. watch you to confirm it. I have been back to lifting (a little) the last two weeks, but spent 4 months healing from a torn pec… so, just sayin.
@Mary (What’s Cookin’ with Mary): Thanks for the tip….. injuries are my biggest concern when it comes to lifting.
What a pretty picture!
I love upper body weights workouts!
Hi Tina,
Love you blog! You definitely inspire me to weight train more aggressively! Question, what is your recommendation for a well-priced dumbell set? There are so many options online and it’s hard to know what is best or not for effective full body weight training! Would love to know what your thoughts are! Thanks!
@Samantha: I just use regular ol’ 10-pound dumbells, but I always thought these adjustable dumbbells were cool: http://www.amazon.com/Reebok-25-Pound-Adjustable-Single-Dumbbell/dp/B000VDTFZ2
