Five Minute Trouble Zone Toning: The Back

Nothing says fit and toned like a muscular, defined back.  Having good definition in the latissimus dorsi muscles helps balance your proportions and gives the illusion of a smaller waist.  Another advantage is strong back muscles can help improve posture and give you better strength to do everyday things with greater ease.

Fortunately, you don't have to do spend hours in the gym to see results.  These three basic moves done consistently 2-3 times per week will give you great muscle tone and combat the dreaded "bra strap over-hang".
