Budgets are tight for many people these days and gym memberships are one of the first things to go when money is tight. I personally love no equipment workouts once in a while because frankly, sometimes, I. Don't. Want. To. Be. At. The. Gym. =] hahah especially when it's crowded. Are you ready to give this arm workout a whirl? =]
30 Second Side Slimmer

25 Chair Dips
Sit on edge of a chair, hands on edge of seat, fingers forward, legs extended, feet flexed. Use arms to lift yourself off chair. Bend elbows, lowering body until upper arms are almost parallel to floor, hips directly under shoulders.. Push through hands to rise back up for 1 rep.
8 Full Circle Push Ups
Start in a push-up position on knees or toes with hands set wide. In one fluid, circular motion, shift weight to right arm, lower yourself toward floor, then shift weight across body to left arm and push yourself back up to start. Do four reps, then switch directions, lowering on left side first, for four more reps.
30 Second Alternating Foot Grabs
