While walking is mainly a lower-body activity, arm circles incorporate some upper-body toning.
They target the deltoids and also work the triceps and biceps to some extent.
To perform arm circles, walk at a steady pace.
Extend your arms straight out to the sides at shoulder height.
Begin small circular motions with your arms, ensuring the motion comes from the shoulders.
After you hit your 10 repetitions, reverse the direction of the circles, and complete another 10 reps.
