Beginner Upper Body Workout

I don’t care if you feel too old to start a workout routine. I don’t care if you had past injuries. I don’t care if you have never worked out in your life.

START TODAY.

This beginner upper body workout is DOABLE.

4 exercises done in 3 Rounds (meaning 3 times through all 4 exercises) and you will be one step closer to either being in the shape you want to be in or be one step closer to old age freedom and independent living.

I’ve been a part of the fitness industry since 1986. I learned very fast that it was an egotistical industry and revered youth. Many times I had to learn to keep my ego in check and or throw out my ego completely. There has always been someone in better shape than me, taller than me, stronger than me, someone who had better knowledge of the science than me, but what I learned long ago was there was only 1 me. No one else could teach like me, train like me, care like I did about my clients or help people like I could. Now that I’m 57 years old I feel stronger, smarter, and way more knowledgable about the entire scope of this industry and how to help to people. The number one thing is just start. Start, stop talking about starting, planning on starting, fearing starting, just start.

Get moving and get moving now!!
