Skimble’s Free Workout of the Week: Bodyweight Ladder (by Trainer Elisabetta Bruno)

This ladder will build strength, endurance and put you through your paces. If your form breaks down, take as many rests as needed and then finish the set. This is also a good benchmark workout you can repeat to measure your progress. If you can’t do pull-ups then substitute with a band-assisted pull-up or a band pull-down. If you prefer chin-ups, feel free to do them.

However, you will rebuild those ‘”noodles” into nice strong arms after proper nutrition and recovery. You will need to have access to a barbell with varied resistance, and a bench, to complete this workout.

Skimble’s Pro Workout of the Week: Ultimate Barbell

This barbell workout has an upper body focus. It starts off with an intense HIIT set and finishes with some strength training. For the first portion, find a single weight that will work for all of the exercises so that you are not changing weights between movements. For the second portion, you’ll have to work your way up to your 5-3 rep max, so take more sets if needed. Use the logging feature to keep track of the weights you used and the reps you performed. Have fun!
