Close-Grip Dumbbell Press
This exercise mainly targets the chest muscles and triceps. To start, lie down and hold a dumbbell in each hand. Keep both hands rested at the sides and knees bent. Bend both arms and bring both hands to the shoulders at chest level. Keep both palms facing each other in close grips. Extend both arms overhead and keep the triceps squeezed. Stop at the top. Lastly, gradually return to the initial position. Try to perform 2 to 3 sets of 10 reps. [7]
Inchworm
The inchworm is a great exercise to improve the strength of the lower body, core, shoulders, and arms. In addition, it can increase people’s heart rate. Start by standing with both feet apart and put both hands on the ground. Tighten the core and keep the spine aligned. Walk both hands forward to a high plank position. Make sure to keep both legs straight and lift both heels off the ground. Stop and reverse by walking both hands back to the feet. Try 2 to 3 sets of 10 reps. [8]
