Short on time, trying to fight that creeping bulge that won’t seem to go away?  Then try this exercise that will work your arms (biceps) and your core all at the same time! 

Target Muscles:biceps brachii

Set Up: Sit on a stability ball with your back straight and your feet flat on the floor. Hold a dumbbell in each hand and hang your arms at your sides [A].

Action: Bring the dumbbells up toward your chest by contracting your biceps. Rotate your wrists at the top of the move so that your palms are facing you [B]. When you’ve come as high as you can, reverse the move and slowly lower the dumbbells back to the starting position.

Do three sets of 8-10 reps.

     For some, this exercise may be too easy.  If you are advanced then try lifting one foot off the ground for half then set, then use the other foot for the rest of the set.
