Yoga improves arm tone

A few months before we left San Jose, my arms were HUGE. I was doing a Body Pump class at 24 hour fitness EVERY week and literally benching close to 100lbs (More than half my body weight) to boot . I'd add 10 lbs every two weeks and wound up w/ buff MAN arms. Not very flattering on a woman.

* My Tip: Do NOT do what I did.

Moving to Portland, I quickly dropped the barbells and rebound to a plyometric routine.
I added cardio, removed the free weights and began using only my own.

Cardio and Yoga really turned the look and feel of my arms around. I am now simply tone and slender and much closer to the body type I'd always envisioned myself having.
