Today's Workout 2: The total-body burner

Looking for the perfect arms day routine? Well, you’ve found it.

This quick-hit, no-nonsense routine requires just one piece of equipment—a set of dumbbells—but will work your biceps and triceps into muscle-building machines.

Directions

You’ll do this workout as a circuit, meaning you’ll complete each exercise consecutively without rest. Once you’ve finished all exercises, rest for 30 to 60 seconds. Repeat the entire circuit for five to 10 rounds.

Depending upon your ability, you may shorten or lengthen the rest periods between circuits. You may also complete more or fewer rounds.
