Fitness Workout : 2 Steps to the Celebrity Body You Crave

Jennifer Garner's Arms Exercise : 2-handed Dumbbell Extension Step 1: Stand erect with your feet shoulder width apart, holding the dumbbells so weight looks like it is being used to "scratch" your upper back. Holding your upper arms still, exhale throughout lifting the weight, keeping your elbows pointed straight up throughout the movement. Step 2: Pause at the top of the movement, inhale when lowering the weight and repeat the entire movement. You do not need to fully extend your arms during this movement. The tricep is at its strongest when your arm is bent at a 90 degree angle.   Keira Knightley's Abs Exercise : 90 Degree Crunches without Support Step 1: Lie on your back and flex knees to 90 degrees. Tilt your head back while placing hands behind your head. Lift your upper body to a position approximately 30 degree off the floor. Step 2: Raise your upper body towards your knees but do not move your knees. Slowly return to the starting position. Tap your shoulder blades on the floor without bouncing. Repeat immediately.

Sarah Jessica Parker's Leg

Exercise : Lunges

Step 1: Stand upright, hands on hips. Step forward with one leg and lower your upper body, bending your leg (don't step out too far). Do not allow your knee to move beyond your toes as you come down, keeping your shin at a right angle to the ground.

Step 2: Push up and back and repeat with the other leg. The farther forward you step, the more you will use the gluteus and hamstrings. It is very important to keep your upper body vertical. Go down until your bottom knee almost touches the ground.

Exercise : Squats

Step 1: Stand with feet shoulder wide apart, with your toes slightly pointed outward. Flatten or slightly arch your back. Bend your knees and ankles, as if you were about to sit.

Step 2: Descend slowly until the tops of your thighs are parallel to the floor. Avoid bouncing when you reach the bottom position. Be careful not to shift your weight forward. Keep your back straight and your chest up. Stand upright before repeating.
