A Foolproof Way To Strengthen Your Arms

How To Perform A Bicep Curl While You're Leaning Against A Wall - Jennifer Ledford - Strengthen Your Arms

One of the top reasons that a person will hire a personal trainer is to make sure they are performing their exercises correctly and using proper form.  Proper form while strength training is incredibly important because it helps prevent injuries and ensure that you are getting the most out of the exercise.

​​​​​​​When I first started working in the fitness industry, you would have had to schedule a private session with me to learn proper form.  Not so anymore, thanks to technology!

In today’s video I share one of the safest, simplest, and most effective exercises I know of that strengthens and tones the biceps.  It’s simple to do on your own and great for all levels of fitness.

Here’s to keeping fitness safe and simple.

​​​​​​​Enjoy the video and have a great week!

Three Upper Body Exercises To Strengthen And Tone

Three Upper Body Exercises To Strengthen And Tone

Need a quick workout to strengthen and tone your back and arms?  I’ve got you covered.

In the video below I demonstrate three upper body exercises you can perform almost anywhere.  All you need is a set of free weights.  If you don’t have any weights just yet, you can start by performing the exercises without weights or use a pair of sixteen ounce unopened water bottles.

Free weights can be ordered from companies like Amazon and Power Systems or you can find them them at your local sporting goods stores.

If you like to be frugal and/or don’t like seeing usable stuff go into landfill, online community bulletin boards like Nextdoor and Freecycle are great places to find free fitness equipment.​​​​​​​

Enjoy the video and have a fun and fit week!

Upper Body Exercise TO STRENGTHEN AND TONE

A short workout you can do at home or on the go

A Short Workout You Can Do At Home or On The Go by Certified Personal Trainer Jennifer Ledford

It’s been almost four months since I broke my foot and I’m happy to announce that the break is healed and I’m now transitioning back into strength training.  This means that I’m ready to start filming exercise videos for you again.  Whoo-hoo!

In today’s video I share a mini workout you can do in under ten minutes.  It features three exercises that work your lower and upper body all at the same time.  You can perform the exercises pretty much anywhere so there’s no need to go to the gym or make it formal.

Whether you’re someone that needs a short workout when you’re pressed for time, not yet ready to commit a whole lot of time to exercise, or not that crazy about working out but you know you can handle ten minutes, this video is perfect for you.

As always, if you have any questions for me, please leave a comment below or over on my Facebook page. I love to hear from you!

Have a great week!
