Arm and Back Exercise
Any good exercise ideas for toning the upper back, triceps and shoulders??? I know the usual suspects. Looking for a few new ones.

get some weights (between 3 and 10 pounds). prop one knee on a bench or chair, lean your body down so your looking at the floor, while keeping your back straight. take the weight in the hand opposite of the side your resting your knee on. start low, and just bring the weight back so its parallel to the rest of your body. try using a small weight because to tone this area you need low weights, and high reps. so, do as many of these as you can, rest, do another set, and repeat. then switch to the other side. doesnt seem hard but they hurt so badddd! in a good way. lol

I promise if you do this it will work. I got really toned in only 6 weeks. Look at the pic on my profile at my back as proof. I was so proud of myself!

I did push ups and lots of weights. More weights than cardio. You just need to tone (weights) not lose fat (cardio). Do you have gym access? Use the machine where you sit and the bar is above you, pull the bar down towards your chest. Do 3 sets of 15 reps. Also.....Place your right knee on the exercise bench. Your left foot will remain planted on the floor. Place your right hand at the top of the bench. This will cause you to lean forward. Do not hunch your back. Hold the dumbbell in your left hand. Your arm should hang straight down.Draw the dumbbell upward toward your chest. As you do so, your elbow will point behind you. Lower your arm. 3 sets of 15. Hope this makes since and helps!
