Since we worked on our gorgeous Abs last week, this week we will get those tuckshop lady arms movin'! And we will use a couple of different exercises for this.
(a) The first one is good old fashioned push ups. You can do them easy (on your knees) or hard (on your toes) or anywhere in between depending on your personal fitness level. Try and do 3 sets of 20 (all at once or broken up if you need to) each day. And try to challenge yourself! if you find you are getting through them okay, raise to a higher level for the last 10! (b) If you have some hand weights I want you to do some arm curls and raises. For the curls, start with your arms down and facing outwards, then lift your forearms (from the elbows only) up to your chest. If you don't have hand weights you can use cans (of equal weight) or full bottles of water are good too. To do the arm raises start with your arms down to your side, weights in hand and lift your arms directly up and out until they are level with your shoulders, do not go any higher than this. You can then change this a little by placing your arms in an "L" position by your side and lifting your elbows upwards to shoulder height (again, do not go higher than the shoulders) and keeping your forearms in the 'L' position. Do three sets of 10 of EACH of these arm exercises. And of course, still continue with your walking and H2O! If you dont have hand weights you can use Tins of fruit or dolmio jars etc I do my push ups on the swiss ball so if u know how to do that then do coz it works out your core aswell
