Looking to tone up that area by your armpit, between your chest and your arm? You know the place I'm talking about. Give this move a try. You'll feel it in your pecs, biceps, and shoulders.
- Lie on your back with your knees bent and your feet flat on the ground. Engage your abs so your lower back is pressing into the floor. Hold a set of dumbbells and straighten your arms out in T-position with your palms facing the ceiling.
- Keeping your arms straight without locking your elbows, inhale to prepare, and then exhale as you lift your hands until they are in line with your shoulders.
- Inhale and slowly lower your arms back to the ground, but stop about an inch above the floor. That completes one rep.
- Do two to three sets of 12 to 15 reps.

6yay for this post! i've always wondered how to work that area.
7ahh 5 lbs is impossible for me! and also does this area have a specific name? it's the only thing keeping me away from my beloved tank tops...
