Workout your UpperBody +

Each and every one of us steps foot into the gym because we want to improve our physical selves. While we all might have different goals, the same theme exists for all of us…progression. Now, there are a few guys out there that get to lift heavy weights for a living. Perhaps they've been lucky enough to gain major sponsorship or have lucrative contracts with a magazine and/or sports supplement manufacturer. These guys “get paid” to workout, so for them the gym is their office.

For most of us, however, we cannot afford to build our lives around the gym, but must fit the gym into our lives. Between work, family, friends, and errands, we're lucky to find just 3-4 days per week to train for perhaps 60-90 minutes at a time. Thus, it's important that every moment we spend fighting the resistance of dumbbells, barbells, cables or machines be used with maximum efficiency. That means choosing the “best bang for your buck exercises” that yield optimal muscle building results in a minimum amount of time.
