Finally, if your off-the-shoulder dress will show off your arms as well, then you can tone them beforehand If you think it will make you feel more confident, do these exercises to give you the arms that will make an impact, but always advised by a trainer .

  • Planks with weights Lie face down on a flat surface and rest your body on the tips of your toes and the palms of your hands. While you are in the plank position, bring a dumbbell of low weight - according to your resistance - in your right hand to chest height, lower and now raise your left arm. Repeat the movement 20 times, for three sets a day. If you are not used to addingweight to the exercises, do the planks with the arm raises without dumbbells.
  • Side lifts Lying on your side, lift your body up, leaning on your right forearm and toes. Once you're comfortable and balanced, grab a dumbbell with your left arm, extend it toward the ceiling, bring it back toward your chest, and extend again for 20 beats. When you're done, rest for 30 seconds and repeat the series two more cycles.
