A 30-minute upper body workout to sculpt your arms and abs

You don't need to lift heavy dumbbells to get a killer upper body burn. Case in point: this 30-minute circuit workout from fitness coach Beverley Cheng. 

In the latest video from her series Body Zones, Beverley will lead you through a series of movements designed to sculpt your abs, obliques, arms and shoulders using only a pair of light weights (or soup cans, water bottles — whatever you have around the house that's easy to hold on to). 

Check out the workout and then scroll down to see the full list of exercises. All you'll need is a mat, a pair of three-pound weights and some water to get started.
