What's the best way to get rid of flabby arms?

Question

I've been exercising regularly, am fit and am not fat elsewhere, but just got flabby arms. How to get rid of stubborn fats at the arms??

Answer 1

It sucks to have lunch lady arms! Unfortunately, you can't change your genes, but regularly using your triceps will keep them looking their best. You might even completely get rid of the flabbiness in your arms.

You've been reducing your overall body fat it sounds like so far, and that is good. Keep that up! Along with a proper diet, have you just been doing cardio? There are four things you should be doing for your body everyday. Diet, stretching, cardio, and resistance training with weights. Men tend to skip out on the stretching. Reason being, men find it feminine strectching their body out like the women next door doing yoga. Well, women have a problem doing weight training because alot of women have the misconception of coming out a few months later from the ordeal with biceps the size of a football!

You won't come out looking like that doing resistance training, unless you train for that. People who do that, change their diet, and work-out for that. You can shape your muscles into whatever you want with the right training program for your needs. Start working with weights if you haven't already. Resistance training keeps your metabolism burning for 72 hours after a workout. Vary your strength-training moves to target different angles of your triceps so you'll work them more completely by the end of the week. Try workouts that require you to use your triceps, such as tennis, kickboxing, or skiing.

Well, good luck and keep working hard!

Do more reps then lifting heavier weights. Use light weights and reps of 20 - 30. Do 3 or 4 sets of them 3 days a week. Space out each set in a time span of 2 minutes. Your flabby arms will go away quickly.

Ugh. I'm currently trying to fight flabby arm syndrome. Best that I've found so far is to sit on a chair, with your hands on the front edge, and you scootch your butt off the chair, legs with your knees bent, and use your arms to lower and raise yourself up and down off the edge of the chair. Almost a like a backwards sort of push-up, you know? I have a counter in my bathroom that's the perfect height for this, so right before my shower every morning, I do two sets of twelve of those. It's working, slowly but surely.

Push-ups are also supposed to be good. You can do modified pushups, too...instead of legs out straight, stay on your knees, but lift your ankles (so that your feel almost rest against your butt, you know), and cross your ankles.

Well.......if your older, its something that will be hard to get rid of. Try pilates though. The lengthen the muscle and tighten the skin. Also, get a firming body lotion. Lifting weights won't help. Yoga is also good. But this will all take a while.

Answer 5

Tricep excercises. People forget about them for some reason and think that just working their biceps will get rid of arm flab but that's not really the case.

Answer 6

Use light, repetitive weights and isometric training. This will begin the toning. When you are stronger, you may try heavier weights, but you just might be the body type that will have flabby arms...it sucks to be us, dear one.

Answer 7

Lift weights .. very good tip but takes ages to work .. If you don't have weights use two tins of beans etc. instead. No other way to get rid of it apart from lipo

Answer 8

you can do arm curls. Do you speed bags that boxers practice on. Just roll your arms backwards and forwards. You can use weights if you want to.

Good Luck
