I go to the gym, but I don't work out my upper body. I usually just end up working out my legs. Like using the bikes, the cross trainer, and my favorite one of all. The leg press machine. I can do over a hundred pounds on that machine which I don't think is too bad for a woman.
Anyway, the only time I kind of work my arms out is when I use the rowing machine. But I was stupid the last time I used it, I didn't use gloves and I had blisters that hurt like hell for a while.
Anyway, I also used to have some free weights and I would use them but I f**ked up my shoulder using them.
I want to tone my arms up and what not. I don't particularly like the machine where I have to pull the bar down since I'm not exactly a giant and that seat is usually too low lol
But I like the machine where I have to push the weights up with my arms.

Basically what that person is doing. Anyway I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice on how I should go about this. I really don't want to screw my shoulder up again.
Okay, let me make myself clear. I have like NO upper body strength. lol I'm fine with push ups. But pull ups and chin ups, yeah, that's definitely pushing it.
