Toning your arms up for summer
It's a bliss to be able top wear short sleeve ore even sleeveless tops and dresses during the hot season. Appropriate even for work these lovely clothing items save my day, and I can't even imagine how women felt back than when they were frowned upon for showing their ankles, living their lives buttoned up.

Nonetheless, I always want to look my best, so before summer I always try to work on my arms, and I've already shown you some of my favorite exercises against arm flab.

I recently had to visit my doctor since I was feeling strange numbness and pain in my fingers, after some examination the diagnosis was: mild, start stage of carpal tunnel syndrome. This was of course because I spent way too much time using my keyboard and mouse, and the doctor's orders were to take breaks often and try to reduce time spent in front of a computer.

But, the true revelation came from a geek friend of mine, who was always crazed with gadgets, and he suggested using Powerball. I do not want this to sound like a commercial, but the day I got it, I got addicted to it!

After only a couple of days using it I realized that my hands and fingers do not hurt anymore, which was great, so I continued exercising every day while watching TV or reading a book, since it was so easy to do. I didn't strain it or tried to achieve a record, but as the time passed I noticed I rotate the gyro more quickly, thus heightening the pressure of the ball.

Needless to say, my arms and my hands became stronger, my shoulders and upper arms look nicer. If you ever wanted to tone up your arms without using dumbbells or real exercise, consider Powerball.
