10 Minute Standing Arm Workout for Beginners & Seniors to the Beat 🎶

Get ready to tone and strengthen your upper body with this 10 minute arm workout. All exercises are in a standing position and are set to the beat of the music which makes it fun and motivating!
Please go at your own pace if you needed and start with an appropriate size weight. I'm using two 5lb dumbbells and it's challenging. I recommend starting with lighter weights such as 3lbs. Increase your weights as you get stronger!
There is no warm up provided in this video, so please make sure your muscles are warm before starting. There is however, lots of stretching at the end that will leave you feeling great!
All exercises are also appropriate for those with osteoporosis. There is no bending or twisting of the spine and the strength training is great for building bone mass.
Thanks for working out with me!
My shiny pants are from CRZ YOGA. Their athletic wear is comfortable and affordable!

Love these short but effective workouts! 10 min is perfect! 😊

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Great! Thanks so much :)

[@eileen2211]

I really enjoy this weights workout especially since I do my own warm-up and this doesn't have one. Ten minutes is easy to fit in no matter how busy my day is. Thanks!

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Great to hear!

[@GRANDAG563]

I thought exercises with dumbbels are too difficult before I found this video. I did the workout and an hour later I did it again because it's just amazing! Thank you very much, Lauren!

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

That's awesome! I have many more videos like this one for you to keep up the good work :)

[@vickiestiner1945]

I am so glad I found your Channel. The work is easy enough to keep me coming back and staying with it and yet hard enough to be challenging and get stronger. I'll be 67 in May and I want to stay strong. I live alone and I want to be able to keep up with my yard work and stay in my home. Again thank you for helping all of us!

[@patriciadalton5601]

I did a 15 minute workout before doing the arm exercises. Don’t know how I managed it but gave myself a little knock on the head with the weights woke me up for the rest of Exercises. Well be coming back to the arm exercises. Very easy to fit in to the day. Thank you Lauren❤️

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Glad you liked it and will be returning despite your knock on the head Patricia!

[@tanyapeyton4034]

I don't remember when I first started working out with you...its been months now and I'm happy to report the range of motion in my shoulders has improved a lot! I'm sure there's other areas that have improved as well but due to an injury from 2013 in my shoulders, they have had less than satisfactory mobility and now I'm able to move them with much more fluidity...thanks so much!!!

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Great to hear Tanya! Keep an eye out for next week's video. It's great for shoulder mobility :)

[@loonielaura]

I’m so glad I did your warm up and a short cardio before this arm workout. The arms and shoulders are burning. Have a great week Lauren. I’m smiling on a Monday. The endorphins have been released. 😊

[@simonap.3230]

When I go to the gym I am always a bit lost and a bit intimidated on the arm exercises! I look around and everyone knows exactly what to do, what weights to use, how many repetitions and which movement to do! At 61 , I would like to have arms more toned !! This workout is exactly what I needed !!!! Following you is the best thing I could ever do ! I am sure with time I will see those improvements I am so desperately looking for!!! 😅Thank you SO much !!!!! ❤

I really liked the exercises. I performed with 2 kg dumbbells, they are a bit heavy for me, at the beginning I had difficulty lifting them up, but at the end of the workout it was not at all difficult to work with them. Progress is obvious! I love all your workouts and I'm glad I'm on your channel! Thanks so much, Lauren!
