30 Minutes To A New You
Upper Body Workout

Welcome to my 30 Minutes to a New You exercise program, featuring the Upper Body Workout. As you will note in the chart below, each exercise in this workout will help you target specific muscle groups.

I’ve given you the formula for success with these workouts, by providing the number of repetitions and sets that are required for the best results.

Below the chart, I have described each of these muscle groups and explained the benefits for developing and strengthening these areas of your body.

These exercises will help you to achieve a super flat stomach, lean and sexy abs and perfectly sculpted arms. You’ll shed those love handles, eliminate stomach fat and emerge with a flat firm core. Best of all, these exercises are fun and fairly easy to do.

Remember to keep your core engaged at all times. Practice it now and later it will become a matter of habit.

The Chest Press is the first exercise on the chart and the Chest Fly is the second exercise. Both of these work the same muscle groups.

Pectorals are the chest muscles behind your breasts. Building these muscles helps to fight the effects of gravity and sagging breasts. An alternative to plastic surgery, these exercises will strengthen the muscles in your chest wall to combat the effects that aging, childbearing and nursing have on our beautiful breasts.

Anterior Deltoids are your shoulder muscles. These muscles sit on top of the arms like caps. These muscles are needed to push a swing or door. When these muscles are developed they provide strength and reduce neck strain. Toned anterior deltoids provide shoulder width and help to accent a smaller waist.

Triceps consist of the two muscle groups in your arms. Toning your triceps is the key to sleek, sexy arms. Beautifully shaped arms look fabulous in sleeveless blouses.

The third exercise is the One Arm Row. The following muscle groups are affected by this workout.

Latissimus dorsi is a flat dorso-lateral muscle that runs from the lower to middle of your back. This muscle is responsible for stretching and extending your reach. Developing this muscle will tighten your waistline and strengthen your back. Only the One Arm Row works this muscle group.

Rhomboid muscles are located in your upper back and connect your shoulder blades to your spine. Working these muscles and keeping them flexible will help to protect you from injury when reaching overhead or playing tennis and other sports. Toning these muscles will give you a sleek sexy back that’s ideal for backless dresses and halter tops.

Posterior Deltoids are the muscles located in the back of the shoulders. Working your posterior deltoids will give you those sexy shoulders that look great in spaghetti straps. Sundresses, evening gowns, swimsuits, will all show off your well-toned arms and shoulders.

The Bent Over Row is the fourth exercise listed on the chart. It works the following muscle groups.

The Rhomboids are located in your upper back and connect your shoulder blades to your spine. Working these muscles and keeping them flexible will help to protect you from injury when reaching overhead or playing tennis and other sports. Toning these muscles will give you a sleek sexy back that’s ideal for backless dresses and halter tops.

Posterior Deltoids are the muscles located in the back of the shoulders. Working your posterior deltoids will give you those sexy shoulders that look great in spaghetti straps. Sundresses, evening gowns, swimsuits, will all show off your well-toned arms and shoulders.
The fifth exercise listed on the chart is the Triceps Kickback and the sixth is the Dip, both work the same muscle group of the Triceps brachii.

Triceps brachii is the muscle located in the underside of your arm. Developing this muscle not only makes your arms stronger, it helps to tone them and give them a nice svelte look.

The seventh and eighth exercises are the Biceps Curl and Hammer Curl. These exercises work the following muscle group.

Biceps brachii is the muscle located in the front of the upper arm. When you flex your muscle Popeye style, the biceps brachii is the muscle that you are showing off. Developing this muscle will sculpt your upper arm for that sexy sleeveless look.

The ninth exercise is the Pilates 100. This particular exercise works the Abdominals or Abs, the tenth and eleventh exercises are Pilates inspired and also work the abs.

Your abdominal muscles are found in your stomach, just under your ribcage and extending down to your pelvic area. The abs are made up of six muscles. These muscles are vital for body posture.

Your six muscles referred to as the abs are the Transverses Abdominis, Two Internal Obliques, Two External Obliques, and the Rectus Abdominis. Working these muscles will not only give you the famed six-pack abs, they also give you better posture, for back pain relief, and help you when you bend-over, or reach for objects on upper shelves.
