If you're lucky enough to have a set of dumbbells at home, here's a workout you can do to target your abs and arms. Celebrity trainer Jeanette Jenkins [2] shared this circuit workout to strengthen all areas of your core, and don't worry if you don't have a set of weights — you can improvise with a set of water bottles, soup cans, or whatever else you have on hand. We think this workout would be great to do after a run or bike ride to keep your core and upper body strong!
