Get Lifted: Bent Over Lateral Raises
It is tank top time! Lateral raises are great for toning your shoulders, but if you also want to target your upper back and the posterior deltoid, try this variation. It's really challenging so you may have to start off with a lighter set of dumbbells.

Get the Bod: Halle Berry's Back and Shoulders
Spring is just around the corner and warmer weather is on everyone's mind. With a much-anticipated increase in daily temps comes more revealing fashion — bring on the strapless dresses and tank tops. I've always been inspired by Halle Berry's upper back and shoulders.
Build a Strong Core and Arms With the Suitcase Walk
If you're looking to strengthen your core muscles as well as your shoulders and arms, here's a great move called the suitcase walk. Not only is it great for toning your muscles, but it can also prepare you for carrying your suitcase in the airport this holiday season. Here's how to do it:
- Hold a rather heavy size dumbbell in your right hand, between 15 and 30 pounds.
Multitasking Move: Shoulder Press Steppers
I love working my shoulders and my outer thighs, and this exercise targets both areas at the same time. You'll need a resistance band for this move, and if it's too easy with the band you're using, then you can make it more difficult by shortening the band and holding the rubber part below the handles.

Get Lifted: Lounging Shoulder Lift
Looking for a way to strengthen your shoulders? This move seems easy, but once you do a few reps, you'll see it's more challenging than it looks, since it targets the tiny muscles of the rotator cuff. If you have a shoulder injury, use a lighter dumbbell.
Get Lifted: Lying Pec Fly
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.
