"The myth that women shouldn't lift heavy is only perpetuated
by women who fear work and men who fear women."
Okay, so here is one of my new favorite moves I have been using in class. I tell everyone who has been coming to my class regularly to use 3lb weights, and newbies to use the 1lb weights.
Stand with feet a little wider than shoulder width apart. Then with a weight in each hand, your arms out strait & parallel to floor perform forward arm circles then squat and hold for ten seconds, return to start position. Do forward punches, squat and hold for ten seconds, return to start position. Do reverse circles, squat and hold for ten, return to start position. And last one forward circles, squat and hold for ten, return to start position.

Seems easy, but I promise your arms will be burning. Do the 4 squats back to back then take a 15 second rest and repeat the set for a total of 5 times.
CHALLENGE: When your arms get used to this, try bumping up the weight, then the number of sets, and then add balance disks (I sell them, message me for details). Enjoy!
