The arm work out in this article is only good for the triceps (back of your arm). To tone your biceps try doing either curls or fly's.

  • Curls: Holding the weights, start with arms at your sides. Slowly lift the weight towards your shoulder/chest, then slowly return to your side. (By doing this slowly you get the maximum effect) Repeat with other arm. Do this exercise in sets of 20 every other day.
  • Fly's: These can be done laying on a flat bench, at an incline, or over the head. I would suggest varying the position to hit all muscle groups. This exercise is like doing a bench press but with out all the major equipment. Get in to position holding a weight in each hand (lay down, incline, or sitting straight up). Lift the weights so that your elbow makes a 90 degree angle, your upper arm should be parallel with the floor and weights pointing upwards. Lift the weights toward the sky and over your head until your arms are fully extended and the weights touch. Slowly return to the 90 Degree angle with your upper arms parallel to the floor. Repeat the exercise in sets 2 sets of 10 repetitions every other day.
For both of these exercises I suggest increasing first the repetitions and then the weight as you get stronger. For most women I would suggest working your way up to 15-20 1bs for a lean and toned look.  There are lots of exercises out there and I could go on forever explaining them but I'm sure you can find them on line so I'll give you some of the names and let you find them.
For your triceps I would suggest mule kicks and tricep extentions.
For the legs I would suggest lunges, squats/wall squats, and jogging/walking.
For the stomach again I suggest jogging because it does work muscles in the lower abdomen, cruches, side bends, and I'm not sure what it's called but if you suck in your stomach and hold in there for at least 20 seconds at a time it does flatten your tummy over time.

Good luck with all of your wedding fitness routines!!!

I'm curious about the wedding dress in the photo. I love the dotted material. Does anyone know the designer??

I am not sure about this dress but I know Casa Blanca has some designs using a similar material and it is affordable! Mine is Casa Blanca 1900 (similar material) and costs about $700!
