In this YouTube clip “Super Fast Toned Arms & Shoulders“, my cat, Mr. Chi joins me once again as I demonstrate a simple way to tone and define your arms and shoulders. Many people ask me if I lift weights to tone my arms, and you might be surprised to find that I don’t! But I do practice yoga regularly, and have found that yoga has given me and the many students I teach, amazing results! In this exercise, I demonstrate a downward dog to plank variation. You will repeat downward dog to plank 8 times (optionally extending one leg up while in downward dog). Then hold plank position for 8 counts. Repeat the whole sequence once more. You will notice that this exercise strengthens your arms, shoulders and as an added bonus, your abs too!! Have a great workout! ~Sara Holliday MFT, CPT, HHP
