The Two Best Flabby Arms Exercises


The two best exercises to tone flabby arms are both strength training exercises. Although spot training alone will not get rid of flabby arms, it is an important aspect of a three part solution for toning flabby arms.

There are two different types of flabby arms exercises that are required. They are strength training and cardiovascular exercise. The strength training will build muscle to give you a more toned and defined look and the cardiovascular exercise will burn total body fat. Once you build muscle, your body will automatically burn more calories and it will be easier to lose weight faster.

Here are two strength training exercises to help you tone flabby arms -  tricep extensions and diamond push ups.  Begin slowly and don't over do it. Here is how they are done.

Tricep extensions - Sit in a chair or stand with your feet shoulder width apart. Hold a (begin with a 1, 3 or 5 pound dumbbell depending on your strength) dumbbell in one hand directly above your head with your arm fully extended towards the ceiling (your inner arm should be facing your head) . Very slowly bend your elbow so the dumbbell is lowered behind your head. Keep your upper arm still and fully extended up. You may want to put your free hand on the back of your upper dumbbell arm for support. Then raise it back up again. Try to do three sets of twelve reps every other day.

Diamond pushup - Get down on the floor in a pushup position on your hands and knees. Put your hands on the floor with your thumbs and index fingers touching so they are forming a diamond shape. If you are not used to doing pushups, you may want to rest on your knees rather than your toes. Do as many as you are comfortable with and don't worry if it is only a few. You will gradually be able to do more as you build your muscle up. Do three sets every other day.
