Fast and Furious EMOM Arm Workout

Meg and I love EMOM workouts - which means Every Minute On the Minute. We find that we work super hard in a short amount of time and end up actually end up keeping our heart rate up much higher than we would for a standard strength workout.

This particular workout pairs some cardio elements with the arm exercises, so the result is almost a HIIT type workout, without the treadmill! Sound brilliant to me!

directions:

  • Set the timer for 4 minutes

  • At the beginning of every minute do both sets of exercises (for the cardio set run through the entire circuit of three exercises at the start of each minute).

  • You are your own trainer with this - you control how fast you go.

  • Depending upon how long you break between sets, you can be done this workout in 35-40 minutes.

  • READ THIS! You should consult your physician or other health care professional before starting this or any other fitness program to determine if it is right for your needs. Click HERE for full disclaimer.
