Hi Braveheart,

Thanks for this thread.

dips, with a chair 4-6 sets of 6-8 reps, close grip push-ups same set and rep scheme, tricep extensions with the dumbell same set and rep scheme

Would you explain this a little more? As a dance teacher, I'm in pretty good shape for my, uhm, age. I also walk for 40 minutes to an hour a few days a week. I'm concerned about my arms. My triceps aren't too flabby yet. I use 5lb weights. What are dips and close grip push-ups? I do 20 "girl" push ups a day and lately have added the yoga "plank", but I can barely hold it 10 counts. Should I stay the course or move up to 8lb or even 10 lb weights?

Thanks so much.
