5 Towel Exercises That Build Arm Strength Faster Than Dumbbells After 55

One of the most common requests I get from people over 55 is help with arm strength. The upper body tends to get neglected, and by the time most people want to do something about it, they’ve lost more strength than they realize. I’ve been working as a personal trainer for almost 40 years and training the next generation of PTs at TRAINFITNESS, the UK’s leading provider of PT Courses, for the last 20 years.
