How to Get Rid and Tone Flabby Arms

By Peter Reyes

If you're a woman with jiggly, flabby upper arms and wear long sleeves to cover them, you're not alone. Sagging, flabby arms are common for many women and even for women who are of normal weight. Getting rid and toning flabby upper arms is no easy task, but it can be done through healthy eating and regular arm exercises.

Knowing the best flabby arm exercises can help you get rid of the fat stored around your arms fast. I'll talk about two very simple yet effective flabby arms exercises which are often underestimated. In fact, most models and bodybuilders use these triceps exercises to firm up and maintain toned arms.

Best Exercise to Tone Jiggly Arms

The best flabby arm exercises that tone muscles and burn fat are triceps pull-downs. You can also use free weights to perform a movement with the same effect called triceps extensions.

For triceps pull-down, simply adjust the weight to an amount that you can lift no more than 10 times. If you're using a free weight for triceps extensions, make sure it's also one that you cannot lift over 10 times.

To perform the pull-down exercise, you need to stand in front or behind the rope or bar and reach up to grab the rope. Pull the rope down, and then allow it to go back up again very slowly while keeping your elbows close to your body. Remember to keep your back and head straight.

For the free weight flabby arm exercise, lift the weight up over your head, and then slowly lower it behind your head for a count of 10. Do three sets of 10 on each arm, twice a week for beginners.

Don't forget to pay attention to how you are lifting the weights. Make sure your movements are very slow and controlled so as to really work those arm muscles.

In about a month of consistent arm exercises, you should be able to lose fats around your arms. You’ll notice that your arms are more toned and less jiggly.

In addition, when coupled with a healthy low fat diet and regular cardio exercise regime, you'll also find an overall reduction in your body weight.
