Wearing a sleeveless blouse at an awards ceremony recently, 58-year-old Holly Hunter revealed gym-honed arms. 

The actress gave birth to twins at the age of 47 and says running around after them keeps her in shape. 

She is also dedicated to Pilates and weight training, practising for up to two hours a day.

WHAT TO TRY: 

For super-toned tricep muscles at the backs of your arms, try the ‘skull crusher’ exercise. 

 Lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor. 

With one dumbbell or bottle of water in each hand, raise your arms to the front so they are above your chest, making sure your elbows are straight but not locked. 

Slowly bend elbows to 90 degrees so your forearms are parallel to the floor behind you, and the dumbbells are on either side of your head (with one end touching the floor). 

Lift your arms back to starting position. Do one to three sets of ten to 12 repetitions.
