does anyone know any good exercises that tone upper arms and the back? I don't belong to a gym but do have some mini weights!
thanks :kiss:

Hello chuck
How are you?
Well have you ever looked at any of the Jorge Cruze books? he has some fab arm exercises to help to tone that area.
The one I tend to do without weights is sit on your bum and have you knees up but your feet on ground. Your hands behind you and then lower backwards, almost like a reverse of a press-up. Oh and half press-ups are good too (kneeling and then leaning forward rather than taking your weight with legs stretched out)
Does this make sense???

Good ones for your arms are put your hands on you bottom stairs ors your sofa put your legs out straight and go to sit down but dont, its a killer on the arms
