Bikini Arms and Abs


Its a beautiful day out, 65 degrees and sunny! So after a bike ride up to the gym and back(didnt actually go to the gym, just there and back) but I decided I would do a short workout in our apartment. I did legs yesterday so didnt want to work them again and decided on arms and abs. Gotta get ready for the summer weather!  Theres not set rest time with this one, but you dont really need too much of a break between any of the exercises. Everything is body weight except the bicep curls. I used 20lb DBs for it but if you dont have dumbbells you could use a gallon of milk or water, or whatever you have lying around the house. But here it is, everything is 20 reps.
