Be Well Workout of the Week: 9 Exercises for an Envy-Inducing Torso
It may be sweater season, but that doesn’t mean we’re forgetting about toning your torso: This week’s workout will target your chest and back — with some abs thrown in there for good fun. You have a circuit of nine exercises to complete three times. For the first round, do 15 reps of each exercise, then 12 reps of each for the second round, and finish with 10 reps of each exercise for the final round.
This workout is not a super-sweaty, cardio-challenging type of workout, so focus on your form and engaging your chest, back, and abs to get you through this one. Got it? Good luck!
