Certain exercises help tone the body. Other
physical movements sculpt muscles. To many these exercises define
the true meaning of body building. There are two ideas. The
first is to drastically enhance lean muscle mass, so that the
metabolism will become elevated. Obviously, the second is more
superficial, but why not sex up the contours of the body legs,
the derriere, abs and arms.
Here
are a few exercises to give you a fabulous dream body:
The Viking
Push Up
Body Enhancements: Works shoulders, chest, triceps.
At a hip
distance apart, plant your feet. At the hip, slowly bend forward.
Your hands should end on the floor in front of your toes between
two to three feet. Looking like upside-down "V," keep
your abs drawn in while your head is tucked in as if you could
hold an apple between your chest and chin. As your hands are
positioned slightly ahead of your shoulders, bend elbows while
lowering your chest and shoulders toward the floor. Do not forge
to breath. Remember to inhale as you stay at the bottom for
a second. Then exhale as you return to starting position.

the chair. Next, place the palms of your hands flat on the floor.
Then put one heel on the seat of the chair while the other leg
is straight and extended over the chair. Pushing the buttocks
