Upper Body & Abs #6

Today we will focus on our chest, shoulders, biceps and a bit of triceps regarding our upper body. For the abs section we will focus on entire core but after this workout i was mostly sore in my obliques. This workout will also challenge your balance. That’s why i have chosen the stability ball for most of the exercises. In case you don’t have stability ball, you can do all of the exercises from the floor but in this case you will lose a bit of range of motion (ROM) and thus muscle contraction.

The workout is structured a super set, meaning we are doing 2 exercises back to back with timer 15/45, for 3 rounds.

Now do a quick warm up and let’s do this together.
