22-Minute Upper Body & Abs Pilates Workout | Summer Sculpt Challenge Day 16 & 20

Sculpt your arms, upper back, and core in just 22 minutes with this targeted Pilates upper body & abs workout using weights! Welcome to Day 16 (and Day 20!) of the Summer Sweat & Sculpt Challenge 💪☀️

This quick and effective routine focuses on building upper body strength, toning the arms (shoulders, biceps, and triceps), improving posture, and strengthening the deep core and abs. You'll start with a warm-up, flow into focused arm and core sculpting work, and finish with a short stretch to leave you feeling strong and energized. I’m using a single 15lb dumbbell today and an optional set of 1lb ankle weights— go heavier, lighter, or weight-free depending on your level and how you’re feeling!

💡 Trainer Tip:
Pair this workout with 20–30 minutes of steady cardio (a walk, jog, or bike ride) to support fat burn and cardiovascular health while keeping your body moving.

🧘‍♀️ Equipment Needed:
• A single dumbbell
• Ankle weights or small set of hand weights

You’re doing amazing — your consistency is paying off. Keep showing up, and let’s keep building strength together! 💛
