Barre is an amazing exercise that you can do which helps sculpt your body and get in great shape. In a sense it's an aerobic version of ballet. Below are tips on Barre Arm exercises that you can do in your own home. 1. Small Circles 1 (triceps and shoulders) Grab hold of your dumbbells and lift your arms into 2nd position, your palms facing front. Make sure your elbows are slightly rounded and make small circles with your weights for 16 counts. Switch directions and do another 16 counts 2. Small Circles 2 (biceps) This time, flip your palms up toward the ceiling, activating your biceps, and make small circles for 16 counts. Change directions, then repeat for 16 reps. 3. Squat – Arm Raise Stand with your feet in 2nd position (about 3.5 feet apart), toes pointing out, then plie. Your pelvis should be tucked in directly beneath your spine. Raise your arms up into a “cactus” position so that your upper arms are parallel to the floor. Press up with your legs and arms simultaneously and come to standing, feeling the shoulder blades slide as you press your arms directly above. Come back to position 1; repeat for 16 reps. 4. Shoulder Raise Start in 2nd position plie, with your arms this time in 90 degree angles, parallel to the floor, palms facing down (position 1). Keep your elbow stationary and raise your weights up to position 2. You may also add pulses to your plie to workout your legs further. http://www.peacefuldumpling.com/essential-barre-arm-exercises 1 Like |
