Tracy Anderson, Madonna's personal trainer


If you've seen paparazzi photos of fitness pals Madonna or Gwyneth leaving the gym together, chances are good that celeb fitness trainer Tracy Anderson was in the background, and you just didn't notice her. She's more or less Madonna and Gwyneth's secret weapon. (And BTW, have you seen Madonna's arms lately?!) Here, Tracy shares her signature moves for svelte arms.


These moves don't require any weights, and Tracy recommends trying to do 20 reps at a time, and then slowly moving up to 50 reps when you gain more strength:


Pinkie Flip Up Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, arms out to sides and slightly bent at shoulders, and elbows pointing up (keep your hands relaxed). As you straighten your arms, flip pinkies to ceiling, extend fingers out as far as possible, and lift your arms slightly above shoulders.

Oppositional Defiant Disorder

might have

Symptoms and treatment of ODD


Oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) is a behavioral disorder found in children (including teenagers) that causes problems in their relationships with parents, teachers and other authority figures. A oppositional defiant often loses their temper, argues with adults, refuses to follow rules, deliberately annoys others, is easily annoyed, blames others for his or her own behavior, and acts angry, resentful, spiteful and vindictive. These symptoms occur in normal children from time to time, but a child can only be diagnosed with ODD once the majority of the symptoms are exhibited very frequently and over a period of at least six months.
