I like these because they each cover a different set of muscles so you can do them as a stand alone circuit or combine for a full body sculpt. Secondly, you can do them anywhere so you can take them on holiday, into the garden or just in the living room! Thirdly, they all require minimal equipment so there\u2019s really no excuse \u2013 if you haven\u2019t got dumbbells you can fill up some water bottles and use those instead. Finally, they are all less than 30 minutes so you definitely find time to squeeze them into a busy day and make sure you stay on track with your fitness goals this summer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So here they are:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As many of my clients know, I will always pick upper body as my preferred workout of the week. My \u201cSummer Arms\u201d workout is a total upper body sculpt &#8211;\u00a0 it\u2019s challenging, hits all the different muscles of the arms and will leave you feeling strong and empowered to take on the day.\u00a0 Aim for 3 rounds to start with (using v light weights or even bodyweight) and give yourself 15 seconds rest between exercises with a minute rest between sets.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-20881 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/carolinescircuits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/4.jpg\" alt=\"arms workout\" width=\"1800\" height=\"1125\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carolinescircuits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/4.jpg 1800w, https:\/\/www.carolinescircuits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/4-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.carolinescircuits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/4-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.carolinescircuits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/4-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.carolinescircuits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/4-1536x960.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re unsure on how to do any of these exercises, check out my <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Cff8aO1oxEB\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instagram post<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of this workout so you can see exactly how to do each one correctly, and safely.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Next up I have a booty burner for you!
