Dumbbell Shoulder Press (for shoulders)

Dumbbell Curls (for biceps)

Routine 2: Short Circuits
Here, Lou Schuler, author of The New Rules of Lifting shows how to make the most of a short workout by doing circuit. A circuit is a set of 2 or 3 sets of different exercises. Follow that with a short break and repeat the circuit.
-
A 5 minutes warm up with lunges, squats or push-ups.
-
Do circuits that each include one upper body pushing exercise, one upper body pulling exercise and one lower body exervices. Take a break between each circuit and start again.
Upper body pushing exercises include pushups, press presses or shoulder press.
Upper body pulling exercises include rows, chin-ups or lat pull-downs.
Lower body exervices include squats, dead-lifts or step-ups.
Routine 3: Reduce your reps
What a better way to reducing the lenght of your workout than reduce the number of repetitions asks Jorge Cruise, a weight lift coach and author of The 12 Second Sequence.
-
Instead of doing 8 to 12 reps quickly, do only 4 but take longer for each exercise.
A lunge for example should be performed over a full 10 seconds period and when your back leg is closest to the ground, maintain the position for a further 2 seconds before coming back up. Crunshes should be done similarly, taking longer to come up, pause at the top and then coming back down slowly.
