I thought about titling this blog ‘your dumbbell-free ticket to the gun show’ ???! Too much? I thought so too. Seriously, I’ve got to stop writing so late at night because what I think is a good idea at 10pm, is not a good idea when I re-read it at 7am…


So in an effort to spare you from any unnecessary alliteration and not-so-clever jokes, I’m going to jump right into the workout. Because let’s be honest, you really came here to get sculpted arms. So let’s get to sculpting!


Typically my upper-body workouts consist of dumbbells or resistance bands, but there are plenty of effective moves you can do with just your bodyweight. But these 10 exercises won’t just strengthen and sculpt your shoulders, back, and triceps; many of these exercises also target the core.


It’s time to toss aside those dumbbells and get back to basics with a bodyweight-only upper body workout that you can do anywhere.
