Wedding Countdown: Arm Plan

Bridal gowns are so lovely and flattering, but most show off your arms. Here's a slew of arm exercises to help you tone your arms for the big day (and beyond). Not getting married anytime soon, or are already betrothed? This workout will get your arms ready for tank top season as well. Source

For those of you who can't force yourself into something like this, try this DVD. It's a bellydance DVD, but it is also an excellent workout centered on building strength in your core as well as tone in your arms and shoulders. Don't worry, it's not strictly a 'dance DVD'. I've been using it for a few weeks and totally see and feel the difference!

For $15, it's worth it!
