Wishes of a bride:

Every bride imagines of walking down the passageway looking slim, trim and stunning. While there are no quick fixes, proper diet and exercise that will make you look and feel your best, for your wedding day.

Here are some basic exercises for shaping and toning your body:

First exercise is for thighs or squats. Get in a relaxed upright posture with your feet shoulder width apart. Your toes must be pointed straight ahead or slightly outward, never inward otherwise knee strain will result. Spotlight your vision straight ahead. Do not tilt your head backwards or raise your eyes in your head as this will disturb your equilibrium. Lay the barbell evenly on your traps and shoulders, not the neck and grip the bar comfortably with your hands slightly wider than your shoulders. Keeping your heels planted tightly on the floor, inhale and move your butt back and downward. Do not begin by bending the knees. Carry on downward, by bending the knees, but be cautious not to allow your knees to move forward. This will save you strain on your knees. When the thighs reach parallel, start exhaling and return to the preliminary position.

There should be no sideways movement, especially in the knee or hip region. The other exercise which follows is for upper and lower abs. Lie on your backside with your knees curved and your feet resting flat on the floor. Your neck and head must be stress-free with your hands at the sides of your head. With the help of your upper abs, curl your upper body so your shoulder blades lift off the floor. As you curl up by means of your abs, your chest bone should be aimed toward your bellybutton. At the top, contract the abs powerfully and then slowly lower your upper body, lightly touching your shoulder blades to the floor. Repeat. For the work out of the arms basic stretching and toning movement is required with the help of light weights as desired. Bend one arm at the elbow and let it go down easily to the mat. Do the similar exercise with the other arm. Take a deep breath and exhale gradually through your mouth. This is also good for spine. For fat burning there are cardio exercises like running, walking, biking, etc.
