The Monkey
The Monkey is an exercise that I developed for my SilverSneakers classes. It is a simple exercise that attacks the biceps, wrist flexors and extenders, a little bit of triceps, and the deltoilds. It can be done seated and standing.
Equipment:
Dumbbells
 |
| Starting position |
|
| Curl your wrists up towards your body, bend your elbows, and raise your dumbbells up towards your armpits. Return to starting position. |
 |
| Once back in starting position move into wrist extension to jump start a side lateral raise. |
 |
Perform a side lateral raise. You can modify this exercise to be a front raise, overhead raise, or any other favorite overhead exercise. |
