This Killer Upper Body Workout is perfect for the individual that strength trains about 2-3 days a week and needs to get in several muscle groups at once. You can do this at home or at your gym.

You know what they say, girlfriends that sweat together, stay together. 😉 In my eyes, there’s nothing that’s more fun than blaring Beyonce and Britney while working out with one of your favorite girls! My girlfriend, Samantha Tuohy, is a NASM Certified Personal Trainer and she planned a KILLER Upper Body Workout for us and I had to share it with you all.
This workout focuses on all of the muscle groups in your upper body, including: chest, back, shoulders, biceps and triceps. Samantha designed this routine where each muscle group is separated and done for 3 rounds each, as noted below. We clearly did this workout at her home, however, you can also make adjustments and do the same routine in a gym. Either way is effective and based on what you prefer or have access to. So, turn on some tunes and go kick some butt!
