15 Minute Back Workout
15 Minute Back Workout
There’s been a big push lately to stop neglecting your leg muscles and pay more attention to your lower body. But when it comes to upper body fitness, the back muscles are frequently overlooked. After all, you don’t see them as often as you see your arms, chest, and abs!
Despite being neglected, having a strong back is extremely important to your overall health and fitness. In fact, back pain is one of the most frequent complaints I hear from my clients. Your back is working all day long, whether you’re sitting, standing, or in motion. You need it to be strong so it can provide you with the support you need!
So I’m offering up a powerful but flexible back workout that you can do in as little as 15 minutes!
Ready for this? Let’s get to it…
Complete 15 Minute Back Workout
This back workout is designed to be totally flexible according to your own schedule. If you only have 15 minutes, you can totally get it done in that time. Or you can repeat the circuit up to 3 or 4 times, as your schedule permits!
For each exercise, you’re going to perform between 8 and 12 reps. The higher end of the zone will get you burning more fat, while the lower end will build more muscle. Either way, staying in this zone will ensure an effective, strength-building back workout.
Perform 1 set of each exercise, resting about 30 seconds between sets. If you have more than 15 minutes, repeat the circuit as desired.
