The 4 Best Techniques For Building Upper Body Strength
As a personal trainer, one of the most common goals
my clients have is upper body strength. Lots of it! Whether it’s all about the looks or overall strength, it’s a common request. Over the years, I’ve developed some great techniques for building upper body strength. The following workouts are great for both men and women looking for more power up top.
Before we dive in, remember to start small. We’re looking to perfect the technique before we add too much weight. Lots of weight and poor technique isn’t just useless, it’s dangerous! So, follow me, and let’s work out safely.
- Incline bench press - The bench press is all about working those chest muscles. It’s one of the best body training ideas out there. Guys, it’s going to build your pectorals in a strong and powerful way. The reason why I personally recommend the incline option is that you get an extra boost in your triceps and shoulders. It’s the perfect all-rounder. Start with the bench at a 30-45 degree incline. Grab the bar just wider than the shoulders, and push up to your starting point. Lock it out comfortably, then bring it down slowly to the chest. Breathe in as you come down, out as you go up.
- Dip - The dip is going to work your entire upper body, and your core. It strengthens abs, shoulders, and your arms all at once. This is a killer strength exercise, and it will take some time to get it right! You’ll need parallel bars (or you can set it up using the bench press bars). From a standing start, put all your weight on your arms, and dip down. When your arms are at 90 degrees with the bar, push back up. Repeat!
- Pull up bar - The pull up bar is one of my favourite workouts for the back. It gives you those strong ripples of muscle on your back. Grip the bar with your palms facing away from you. Lower yourself into a hanging position, then pull yourself up slowly until your chin is above the bar. Lower yourself gently back to the starting position. Try to lock out completely to a full hang. If you don’t, you’re not using your full back muscles, and your arms kick in. This is poor form.
- Dumbbell lateral raise - This is another one for the back (working the lateral muscles). It requires a mixture of explosive power and slow control. It’s tricky to get right, so try working it with a friend or spotter first. Start small, and grab two dumbbells, one in each hand. Hold them down by your side; this is your starting point. Now, using a controlled burst of energy, raise them both 90 degrees, so you’re holding your arms wide apart. Control the movement as you bring the dumbbell back down to your sides to the start point. Do this as many times as you can. This one is exhausting, so be careful!
That’s all for now, folks. Get started on these exercises, and remember to focus on form, control, and technique. Then you can start pushing up the weights.

Inspired by the New Movie “Burnt,” Topical BioMedics Announces “Don’t Feel the Burnt” Contest to Win MyPainAway After-Burn Cream
Actors Bradley Cooper and Sienna Miller were trained by renowned chef Marcus Wareing to cook haute cuisine dishes while filming the new hit movie Burnt. Because the actors suffered from burns while filming in the professional kitchen, Topical BioMedics was inspired to launch its “Don’t Feel the Burnt” contest to win tubes of its MyPainAway After-Burn Cream for treating culinary mishaps.
RHINEBECK, NY, October 27—Released nationwide on Friday, October 30th, the film “Burnt” stars Bradley Cooper as obsessive, hot-headed top chef and restaurateur Adam Jones and Sienna Miller as his sous chef Helene. Because the actors got burned during the course of filming, Topical BioMedics, Inc. was inspired to launch the “Don’t Feel the Burnt” contest to win tubes of the company’s MyPainAway After-Burn Cream formula.
Aurora Paradise, chief operations officer, says, “When I heard that the actors suffered from numerous burns making the movie, I wished they had our safe, natural MyPainAway After-Burn Cream on the set to stop the pain and help them heal. That’s why we are giving everyone a chance to win our formula to have on hand for any of their own culinary mishaps.”
“Don’t Feel the Burnt” contest may be entered by clicking the following link http://gvwy.io/6s4nmg9 , and contestants will be invited to share their own cooking burn story. The contest runs from October 30th through November 30th. There is no purchase necessary, and six winners will be selected at random to win a 6 oz. tube of MyPainAway After-Burn Cream.
The actors were trained to play their roles authentically and hone their culinary skills with coaching from acclaimed Michelin-starred British Chef Marcus Wareing, who worked for Gordon Ramsay and other top chefs before opening his own renowned restaurants in London. Wareing says, “There was nothing fake about the kitchen. I had to get people dirty and sweaty to make it look like they’ve been working 12-hour days.” His goal was for everything to be realistic. “I want to see the cooks cooking. I want to see the stoves on. I want to see them seasoning. I want to see them tasting. I want to see them burning themselves. That’s how a kitchen is.”
Cooper said of the filming of Burnt, “There is the intensity of the kitchen in the movie. Massive amounts of pressure, time pressure. It’s hot and dangerous, and you better keep up. There’s a lot of burning. Yeah, we got hurt.”
Miller concurs. “Being a chef is one of the hottest jobs in the world. It’s really hard, and the environment is challenging. I have the badge of a few scars to prove it.”
Directed by John Wells, “Burnt” also features Uma Thurman, Emma Thompson, Daniel Bruhl, Lily James, Matthew Rhys and Jamie Dornan.

Lifting Straps By Rip Toned Review #riptoned
These LIFTING STRAPS By Rip Toned come in a pair of cotton padded weightlifting straps for both men and women. I was recently sent them to try for free. I actually have only used lifting gloves or grip pads throughout my long history of fitness and training. I never had the opportunity to use straps before. I was a bit nervous but they were easy to use and very sturdy. I definitely was not disappointed and was very impressed. Why have I never used straps before?!?!?
A little bit about why these were a good product for me: I had a motorcycle accident last May which left me with 7 stitches in my hand and reduced grip strength. I am strong but I have been unable to hold the weight that I know I am capable of lifting to lift it. I quickly put the straps to use and I have to tell you these straps have helped me lift heavier than I was able to before.
I also like that they give you a Product Guarantee. They are actually the ONLY Weightlifting Straps Backed by a Lifetime No-Hassle Free Replacement Guarantee.
Why use lifting straps? According to their website "Quality no slip weight lifting wrist straps allow the confidence, safety and leverage critical to achieving your body’s peak performance and health we all so desperately seek."
This straps are great for a variety of reasons:
- Lifting Straps overcome a weak grip allowing you to lift more weight while building your ideal body
- RipToned lifting straps provide an element of safety to your exercise when losing your grip could cause injury
- Great quality material for long lasting use
- Rip Toned workout wrist straps will not stretch giving you complete peace of mind
- Provides solid grip without slipping for maximum lifting power
- Top notch stitching and product workmanship
- Durable cotton material with thicker than most neoprene padding
- Comfortable one size fits most design
- Washable for easy care
Get yours here you won't be disappointed if you lift heavy and/or have difficulty gripping when you lift.
Thanks Rip Toned these straps will forever be in my training bag!
