Here's something you’ll love to learn: your shoulders and upper back tend to carry less fat than the rest of your body, so the right exercises can give this area a (nearly) instant makeover, says personal trainer Ramona Braganza. Her workout, below, hits every major upper-body muscle and will help stabilise your shoulder joints, improve your posture and sculpt arms that'll rock your summer wardrobe. Using two- to three-kilo weights, perform 15 to 20 reps of each exercise and go from one move to the next with little or no rest between. Do two or three sets three times a week.
