Let's face it, toned arms and shoulders make us feel better about wearing short-sleeved tops and strappy dresses when the sun is shining - and it's not that difficult to get them, says fitness coach Suzy Alvarez. You can achieve sculpted arms with resistancetraining exercises, alongside a high-protein diet.' The best part? It's possible to whip yourself into shape at home. If you're keen to shrug off that cardigan, start these exercises today and see a difference in six weeks.
YOUR WORKOUT
Aim to do these exercises three times a week. No weights? Use a bottle filled with water instead.
1 HAND PLANK TO ELBOW PLANK
Begin in plank position, your feet hip-width apart and hands beneath your shoulders, your body forming a diagonal line from your feet to your head. Lower your right elbow to the floor, then your left, coming into a forearm plank. Place your right hand on the floor straightening the right elbow. Follow with your left arm to complete one rep. Aim for three sets of six to eight reps.
2 TRICEP DIP
Pace yourself. You can bring your feet closer to the body to take pressure off the shoulders.
