Michelle Obama armsAre you ready to "bare arms"?  It's time to shed the sleeves and pull out the tank tops and spaghetti straps.  Are you ready to show your arms or are you still hiding behind sleeves?  Toning the arms and upper body will make those summer shirts pop.   It doesn't take much to get arms like Michelle Obama and Madonna.  In fact, just a few simple exercises added to your strength training routine and you're on your way to sexy summer arms.  Here's a few simple exercises to tone the upper body:

Remember to start with a light weight or resistance and progress to a heavier weight.  Do these exercises 3 times per week, taking a day of rest in between strength training sessions.   Start with 1 set of 12-15 repetitions or less if the muscles fatigue before.  Increase to 2 sets after 1-2 weeks and then to 3 sets after another 1-2 weeks.  Increase the weight after 3 sets can be done comfortably. 

A few simple exercises 3 times per week will have your upper body toned and pumped up for summer.
