Samira,

There really isn't anything you can do to make you shoulders look less broad except for lose weight or FAT in that area but I think with you - your shoulders are probably mostly muscle and another way to make your shoulders less broad is to simply not train them at all so your shoulder muscles will shrink or atrophy some.

Thanks so much for these exercise techniques...They work great except....My shoulders are already broad. What exercises can I do to tone my arms, but not broaden or sculpt my shoulders any more than they already are? Or are there any exercises to make my shoulders look less broad? Thanks in advance.

i would like to tone my mid- back,( latissmus dorsi, lower trapz) the problem is how do i isolate that area, ive been doing alot for my upper back, but the middle section is out of shape, I only have dumbells, and a stability ball, can you suggest a strength traing move that will help? thanks

Demetria,

If your goal is to just lose weight - then NO but...

I'd rather you use weights to maintain your muscles, to maintain your metabolism and to also look better after losing weight - you see...

Adding muscle increases your metabolism by helping you burn 5-to-20 more calories a day.

If your goal is bodyshaping, toning or firming up then YES -YOU do need weights or some type of manly cardio to firm up
