inspired so many american women with their bold and signature fashion sense as well as her physique. just this week she visited a health care facility in virginia, wearing a robbins egg blue dress and bear baring those finally toned arms. >> she looks strong. she has muscle and we are in to strong women. >> reporter: the pros at this club have been fielding requests about how to build shoulders, by accepts and try accepts that look like the first lady. >> they are toned an defined. she is strong but feminine. >> it is not that tough to create definition in the upper body. by doing strength training exercises that use resistance. >> use your own body weight. things like pushups. that's your own body weight, a wonderful exercise and we use dumbbells or the body bar. >> reporter: for that part of the arm that frustrates so many women, jill has found less is

more. >> it is good to work up to using stronger weights but not necessarily very heavy weights. >> reporter: regardless of the exercise that you choose, regular sets of repetitions a few times a week can give any woman sleeker stronger arms like michelle obama's. >> i think now we have a different sense of what is feminine. so i think having muscle and being strong is a great asset. strong inside and outside. >> i'm anita brikman, 9 news now and wusa9.com. now for her part michelle obama says she works out with a trainer three days a week. so we had a little rough earlier. things were wild and stormy out there and we heard the rains roll in. they rolled back out and hoping for a sunny weekend. >> we think we will start this way. 50/50 weekend with the beginning being the best part of it. it was rough a couple of hours ago. wind gusts 70 to 80 miles an hour in some places and maybe a

tornado in frederick county. we will know more about that later. start with the three-day trend, if you are going to pick one day, pick saturday. it won't rain all day son sunday but mostly late in the saturday but saturday looks the best. highs upper 80s to around 90 both days. a 30% chance of a shower or thunderstorm. i will show you why in a second. but the threat for severe weather is over with. low temperatures 60s to 70s. during the day tomorrow, partly to mostly sunny. warm but nothing unusually warm for this time of the year. highs range between 86 and 91. sunrise 6:09. here's the weather setup. the line of storms triggered by pressure trough or wind shift line that is moving off the coast now. we have another system across the mountains. a weak cold front will come through late tonight after midnight. we have to wait for that to go away before we can clear things out completely. we are picking up some fairly strong storms down south, southern maryland, northern

neck of virginia across the lower eastern shore. the activity is pushing east at 25. if you are watching across the northern neck and it is raining at your house, don't expect severe weather but it will take another half hour, 45 minutes before it clears up and then expanding the view a little bit here. we can see hit and miss showers in west virginia and western pennsylvania. that's with the front that will come through tonight after midnight. still a chance you could hear a rumble of thunder around late tonight but no severe weather. 75 at the top of the hour. dew point 66. the winds have shifted to the northwest behind that trough. most spots dropped in the 70s once the rain moved through. 73 culpeper. 74 at bwio. the temperatures drop off another five or six degrees as we head to tomorrow morning. the seven-day forecast looks like this. again, a 50/50 weekend coming up and a chance of rain late tuesday in to wednesday and that front will be a little stronger. and i think it will change the temperatures. upper 80s to around 90 until that time and then maybe toward the end of next week we will

drop off to 84 or 85. another chance of rain on friday. so derek, no more severe weather tonight. and should be a fairly nice start to the weekend i think. >> tony, thank you for that. from our weird news file. >> okay. not just dominoes. here we go! whoo! >> it is freakish looking. it is about setting a world record. you have to tip over a lot of mattresses with people on them. it is called mattress dominoes and that's because of a group of employees at bensons for beds in england. looks like they pulled it off and now they have to wait for words in the guinness book to find out if they are in. the record at stake, largest chain ever of massive dominoes the record holder currently nobody. nobody has ever done this before. i'm thinking they have the record locked up, whatever that is worth. >> i was going to say what's the report. >> probably nobody has done it.

in the mail bag tonight, bernard, apparently of no known address offered condolences to the peggy cooper who lost her home in a fire. a situation he says did not have to happen. the complete loss of the home and everything in it could have been saved if our city had done what it should have, concerning the present fire hydrant situation. if we can spend so much money on things that are not needed why can't the city get behind such needed repairs as our fire hydrants. it is sad it takes such terrible happenings to wake up

the city to what is really needed. >> the wakeup happened a couple of years ago with a similar situation in adams morgan when there wasn't enough pressure to fight a fire. mayor fenty promised answers as to what went wrong this time and what needs to be done to fix it and we can only hope. more michael vick blow back. last night i suggested it would be a mistake to let the return of vick to ruin one's enjoyment of it all together. and one viewer said it is i that was mistaken. okay, wait a second.

now you are comparing michael vick to a rapist and those that don't like him are victims of post traumatic stress and flash backs. come on, let's be real. if anything that idea could be an insult to people who have actually endured such crimes. i think the reality is we will have to agree to disagree on michael vick. some think he should be ditched forever and others say give him a shot at a comeback. i say keep the e-mails coming. the address is mailbag@wusa9.com and don't forget your name and where you are writing us from. >> that's our report for this evening. back here tonight at 11:00 along with anita brikman and log on anytime you like to wusa9.com. tony, want to look at the weekend weather. >> let's do it. as we say good-bye tonight. the weekend we will split it in half. saturday looks like the best part of it good chance of thunderstorms on sunday but not a washout with a high near 87. >> with that we will see you later. >> good night.
