How to Build Arm Strength
I never realized how little strength I had in my upper body until I made some goals in my yoga practice. I became so focused on my daily drills and realized how quickly my strength kicked up with a focused 10-15 minutes each day. I've been hooked since 2017 and am even flirting with adding some weights now. My arms are more sculpted now than ever had all because of these bodyweight exercises so I thought they might be worth a share! I know arms can be tricky and something a lot of people work to tone so hopefully these bodyweight exercises can help!
My top arm exercises for sculpted arms are repetitive and simple. I do them 6x/weeks and don't try to reinvent the wheel. If it works, work it hard!
1. Push-Ups - 3 rounds of 10 each
Narrow/chaturanga style
Wide/traditional
Diamond
Modified - If you need to modify any of the above, simply drop to your knees
2. Tricep Dips - Choose one of the below options that work best for you
Modified - bending knees
Intermediate - legs straight
Advanced - kettlebell in the lap
3. Dolphin Push-Ups
4. Forearm Push-Ups
