While many upper-body exercises involve equipment such as dumbbells and barbells, weight-free arm exercises are a solid way to test your muscles too.
While many upper-body exercises involve equipment such as dumbbells and barbells, weight-free arm exercises are a solid way to test your muscles too. After all, the body's weight is machinery on its own — you should use it to mount the muscles in the arm and make them function. There's no need for hard training and a gym subscription is absolutely voluntary.
To be perfectly explicit, it's impossible to work any of the muscles in the arms without weights, and weightless arm workouts would only be able to reach those regions, mainly the tops of the shoulders (the deltoids) and the triceps. Many muscles in the neck, such as the biceps, usually need any exterior tension to operate against. But the exercises mentioned here are certainly helpful when you don't have access to tools, to reach some main muscle groups.
Next time you're trying to get home with those arm workouts, consider adding 4 or 6 of the 20 motions below to build a workout — doing 45 seconds of each step, with 15 seconds of rest in between, and then doing the entire thing three times, is a decent starting point. Several of these arm exercises concentrate mostly on individual muscles such as triceps, while some may target the muscles of the shoulder (including deltoids and rhomboids), pecs, and latissimus dorsi (or latissimus muscles on either side of the back). These are all essential places to improve, not just to raise heavyweights but also to allow you to carry out everyday life activities comfortably.
