Want Madonna's Arms? Her Trainer, Tracy Anderson, Has the Moves for You

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.

Shoulder Rotation Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, arms straight out at sides in a T, with your palms facing the ground. Rotate palms to ceiling bringing pinkies forward.

Hand Smack Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and straightened arms reaching out to the sides. Bend one wrist at a time. Reach and smack in that direction, then pull your opposite arm and reach and smack in that direction as if you are hitting something with straight arms.

Alternating Pull Down Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and arms straight out to the sides. Bending one elbow at a time, pull the elbow to your hip as you flex your muscles then straighten that arm as you bend and pull down with the other.

Back Hand Smack Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, arms straight and behind you at a diagonal to the back (palms face one another). Take turns breaking at the wrist and smacking the hand behind your back.

OK now, back to Madonna's arms: Do you love them or think they're a little overly muscular?
