DAVID KIRSCH IN A NEW YORK MINUTE

Heidi Klum’s Abs.
Anne Hathaway’s Back.
Michelle Obama’s Arms.
Liv Tyler’s Legs.
Kerry Washington’s Butt.

Well-sculpted body parts that any bride would dream of having.

When Brides.com asked me for the must-do move for sculpting arms, back, legs, abs, butt – I gave them these:



Follow them and they will make a difference.

Take it to the next level with good eating habits and spot-focused exercises, and you will dramatically improve your points of high exposure.

Whether you have 7 days, 7 weeks or 7 months to do it, you can eliminate the excess jiggle on your belly, back, butt, arms and legs, by your wedding day.

Here are my quick tips and resources for sculpting the sinewy, shapely muscles of your favorite star.  

FLAT TUMMY/TIGHT ABS  >>> Like Heidi Klum, you’ll need a combination of a good diet and lots of cardio exercise as well as a stepped-up ab routine. You’ll need to work your abs two to three times per week doing oblique crunches and other exercises (e.g. crunches, leg circles, bicycles) that hit your abs on all sides. See my One On One Training Series DVD for a routine that will get rid of the love handles and get your tummy and waistline in shape.

DEFINED BACK & SHOULDERS >>> Perform shadow boxing with dumbbells and add in exercises like the Superman, Good Mornings, pullovers and rowing maneuvers to really strengthen your back and shoulder muscles. I focus on back sculpting in Day 4 and shoulders in Day 5 of my 7-Day Prescription. It’s the same routine I do with Anne Hathaway.

SCULPTED ARMS >>> To attain the ever-so-coveted Michelle Obama arms, you must attack both your biceps and triceps simultaneously. That’s why I suggest doing several types of push-ups like these. For a more robust arm-sculpting routine, see Day 5 of my 7-Day Prescription.

SLEEK LEGS >>> The leg routines that I put clients like Liv Tyler on will shape and tone with low-intensity sessions, zeroing in on and isolating the inner thighs, outer thighs, hips and butt. This involves a variety of squats including my favorite: The plie squat.  It’s going to work the calves, thighs and glutes. Add to that a series of lunges like those in my One On One Training Series DVD, providing an intense workout for legs and thighs.

SEXY BUTT >>> You can lift it, lower it, shrink it, pull it in or pump it up. You can sculpt your butt by performing the right combination movements for your butt type. For Kerry Washington (and YOU!) the crossover lunge is designed for major butt sculpting. Get the complete formula that’s right for your butt type found in my Butt Book.
