It’s important to avoid ineffective exercises when trying to lose arm flab. Unfortunately, all the experts have different opinions on this one.

And said opinions are usually based on subjective experience, not objective facts. How are you supposed to figure this out if the experts can’t?

But I have some good news for you. I have decided to create that reliable source of information that is based on fact. Learning how to lose arm flab with the best exercises will be a cinch if you follow my exercise reviews.

So without further delay, here is today’s review of barbell reverse wrist curls:

1. Overview: Gym rats across the globe hunch over and do wrist curls until the cows come home. I guess lots of people want forearms like Popeye. Our goal, however, is to tone the jiggly upper arm area, not the forearms.

2. Technical quick-start: Grasp a barbell, sit down on a bench and place your wrists on your knees. Slowly raise the barbell for a full contraction and then slowly lower it.

3. Most common errors: Gripping the barbell with excessive force. This can cause substantial pain in the wrists. Not bringing the barbell all the way up and all the way down. And letting the elbows shift around.  Read more...

Figuring out how to tone up arms can be extremely difficult if your source of advice is questionable. And unfortunately, most information on the internet is questionable. Thus, many women are completely lost when it comes to getting the lean and sexy arms of their dreams.

How do I know? Because I receive an inordinate amount of questions every day that reveal an epidemic of mass confusion.

But please don’t blame yourself. After all, a lot of the confusion is created by savvy marketers. With endless products comes endless misinformation.

Thus, here is some misinformation to avoid when learning how to tone up your arms:

1. You should exercise every single day. Do this and your body will not recover properly. The end result? Complete burn out of the mind and body. You have to rest, especially if you’re lifting weights.

2. One arm is stronger than the other, therefore something is wrong. This is completely normal. In fact, I’ve never worked with a client whose arms were equally strong. The good news is that over time this difference will equalize.  Read more...

There are an infinite number of variations on how to do arm exercises for women. Unfortunately, if you’re doing the infective variations, you could end up wasting an insane amount of time and energy.

And in the worst of cases, you may fail to see any type of result from all your hard work. Now once you stop seeing results (if at all) your chances of abandonment sky rocket.

So here are some useful pointers on how to make arm exercises for women world class:

1. Fully stretch your long head. Do this whenever performing an overhead extension. These types of movements directly target the long head of your triceps. By fully stretching at the bottom, your long head will get maximum toning. And remember: the long head of your triceps is the area where arm fat hangs from!

2. Squeeze, squeeze and squeeze some more. This is a great technique when doing any type of press down. The key here is to consciously squeeze the lateral head of your triceps at the midpoint of any press down movement. It will be painful, but very effective.  Read more...

There is a lot of variance between upper arm exercises. Some are astronomically more effective than others. And if you?re doing lots of the infective ones, you could spend an insane amount of time in the gym and not notice any results?

And to further complicate things, most trainers have a different view point as to which arm exercises are best. All the different advice could leave you with a serious case of analysis paralysis. Not good!

The good news is that I?ve already done all the homework for you and I?m ready to share my findings!

So here are 4 arm toning exercises that you have to do if you?re serious about getting sexy arms:

1. Tricep extensions. The best way to do these is overhead. They do an excellent job at targeting the long head of the triceps, the area where arm flab hangs from. Now if you really want to work this area, get a full stretch at the bottom portion of the movement. Just make sure you use lighter weights when doing this.  Read more...

Having an idea of which exercises are a waste of time is just as important as having an idea of which exercises are the best. Unfortunately, some of the most prescribed arm exercises are extremely ineffective.

Why does this happen?

The truth is that, in this case, tradition has clouded common sense. It’s all too common for women to blindly do what the so called experts have been recommending.

Luckily for you, I’ve done all the research and I’m ready to share my findings. Why? Because I believe that getting sexy and toned arms shouldn’t involve the risk of injury.

So without further delay, here is my review of triceps kickbacks for getting toned arms:

1. Overview: So many women do this exercise day in and day out in the hopes of getting rid of those flabby arms. Yet this exercise has some major limitations. Not only is it extremely inefficient to exercise one arm at a time, but it’s also impossible to use heavy weights with this movement.  Read more...

There are so many different arm exercises for women out there. How do you decide which ones to do?

Even more difficult, how do you decide who to listen to? After all, it seems as though every expert out there has a different opinion as to which ones are best.

Now getting the right advice is critical for sexy arm success. Why? Because the wrong advice will prevent you from getting results. And without results you’ll stop moving forward.

So I have decided to do all the homework for you. Here is my review of dumbbell extensions for getting sexy arms:

1. Summary. Unlike other movements where your hands are on a fixed bar, this one will not cause wrist strain. A huge plus. This is a superb exercise for working the female triceps muscle, the area where the jiggle resides.

2. Technique snap-shot. Lie on a bench and grasp a dumbbell with each hand. Keep your arms vertical and parallel to the floor. Make sure to keep your abs nice and tight and your back straight. Slowly lower both dumbbells towards the top of your shoulders. Then return them to the starting position.  Read more...

Quick question: are you doing arm exercises for women the easy way or the effective way? If you’re going the easy route, you’re wasting time. Walking into a gym and going through the motions will get you nowhere. Seriously.

But I’m going to make sure you don’t get stuck with the ineffective way. I am going to make sure you don’t fall into a flabby arm rut. Because nothing is more demoralizing. Seriously.

So what’s the number one thing that makes arm exercises for women effective? Intensity. That’s right, intensity is the name of the game. I don’t care how flashy your exercises are, if you don’t apply enough intensity, you will never get sexy arms. Period.

Thus, today I will reveal 4 excellent strategies for cranking up the intensity of your arm workouts:

1. Sets to failure. Often used in bodybuilding circles as a finishing strategy, sets to failure take your arm muscles to complete exhaustion. Select a weight that allows you to do at least 20 repetitions and go to complete failure. It will be hard, but it will work wonders for arm toning.  Read more...

Are you looking for the best arm exercises for women? Well, you are in for a roller coaster ride!

Why? Because finding the best exercises can be harder than finding the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Seriously. There are simply way too many opposing opinions out there.

Unfortunately, most women do not know which opinions are valid and which are not. It’s a minefield. Seriously. But I have good news I have already navigated these waters and I am going to show you the way.

I am going to analyze as many arm exercises as I can so that there is no more confusion. After all, learning how to lose arm fat should not be stressful! So without further ado, here is my analysis of wrist curls:

1. Overview jump-start: This exercise is great for working the forearms, but that is not our goal. Our goal is to get rid of upper arm flab as quickly as humanly possible. Thus, this is not a good exercise for you.

2. Technique. Sit on a bench with forearms resting on your thighs. Grasp a barbell. Breathe out and raise the barbell. Then slowly lower it.  Read more...
