Tuesday 3/7/2023 Daily Gym: Upper Body Workout

Do a few things today:


1: Crush this workout

2: Accomplish a task you have been putting off

3: Encourage someone else who is pursuing their fitness goals either online or at the gym. Read my article from last Friday on "Boosting Fitness Motivation with the Power of Words!"


Upper Body Warm-Up (Link)

5 Sets:

3 Sets:
