Whether you wanna rock a strappy sundress or get a jump on swimsuit season, we’ve got one move that’ll give ya the right to bare totally toned, pool-perfect arms. Best of all? No weight lifting or push-ups required. Yes!

 

The triceps dip

Start by sitting on a bench. G grip the edge of the seat with both hands on either side of your butt. Hold your arms straight but not locked. Keep feet flat and knees bent. Walk your feet slightly forward, contract your abs and lift your butt so your hips are level with the front of the seat.

 

Supporting yourself with your hands, slowly lower your butt until your upper arms are almost parallel to the floor (elbows and shoulders will be bent at a 45- to 90-degree angle). Push yourself back up to the straight-arm position, and repeat for a total of 12 times.

GAH! Please GL, when you have an exercise, could you please make a video for the stretches? Because I pretty much never understand them!

Okay. So in my oppinion I have big thighs! My sis says they look fine but whenever I wear my skinny jeans with a hoodie or something I feel like I look fat! My friends told me not to worry about it because since I play volleyball i will lose it but I'm not one of those tall and lean people! I'm the shortest person on my team! I'm 5'0 and I'm in seventh grade what kinds of exercises do you think I should do to lose the extra fat? Thanks Smile))

 

Hey girl! First of all, 5'0 is not that short so no worries! To loose extra leg fat try out some of these super fun and easy moves!

Good Luck! xo, Erin M.

Take the stairs more than once. When you’re at home, run up and down the stairs three or four times before heading to your room. It’s a sneaky way to stay active.
