Need help to tone those pesky problem areas? Look no further—this video has you covered! Join me as we dive into the best exercises for targeting and toning your arms, lower abs, and thighs for women over 40.
It’s worth noting that these exercises will not decrease the fat in those areas, though. You cannot spot reduce.
