The Doctors: Arm Strength Training

Use an exercise roller to prop your head on the heel of the hand, with your knees bent. Rock back and forth and feel the lat muscles engaging. Then move the roller farther down the torso. These types of exercises will increase mobility, so make sure to do both sides.

Use an appropriate free weight and start from a kneeling position with your toes curled beneath you. Hold the weights at your shoulders and push overhead. Choose a challenging weight, but make sure to pay attention to form.
