  Love your body but hate your arms? For women, if your body is not in perfect proportion, say, your big arms look weird with your small waist, then you might want to adopt an exercise activity that will transform your arms into a perfectly sculpted asset. For men, you might want to consider beefing up those scrawny biceps or toning those flabby arms. Try these tested movements and feel your arms take a new form.

  Note: The required weights will vary from person. Some advanced/stronger people may need. The key is to start with the weight that you’ll be comfortable with. You need not strain hard to get results. Consult with your doctor before doing strenuous exercise.

  Exercise 1

  What you need: a two-pound to eight-pound dumbbells for beginners. Ten pounds or heavier for more advanced lifters.

  What to do: Lean towards the front with left hand on a straight-back chair. Hold the weights with your hand. Bend your elbows for about 90 degrees. Smoothly straighten your right arm behind your back. Return to starting position. Do this in three sets of 15 on each side.

  Exercise 2

  What you need: a stable bench.

  What to do: Sit at the edge of the bench and firmly grip the bench behind you while bending your knees in 90 degrees. Slide bottom off the bench and start walking your feet forward. Bend arms slowly and lower bottom toward floor while keeping your back close to the bench. Bend down until arms form a 90 degree angle. Return to starting position. Do this in three sets of 15.

  Exercise 3

  What you need: Two five-pound to eight-pound weights for beginners. Ten-pounds or higher for more advanced.

  What to do: Hold the five-pound weights in each hand and place arms at the sides. Keep knees soft and shoulders relaxed when standing. Bend right arm slowly to raise weight to the chest. Align your elbow in line with torso. Return to starting position and do the activity with alternate arms.

  flab is the problem. You store fat on your arms, I store fat around my middle. You need to reduce your overall body fat. If you increase your muscularity through weight training, and burn more calories by doing cardiovascular exercise, you’ll like your arms and the rest of you much better.

  You should do weight training two or three times per week and do some aerobic type of exercise (walking, running, cycling, in-line skating) three-five times a week for 30-45 minutes. You’ll firm up your arms and your body, and be in better overall condi

  For starters…

  The muscle that is most problematic for flabby arms is called: The Tricep

  Most women think of these things when it comes to that area:

  * flabby arms * exercise for flabby arms * tone flabby arms * how to get rid of flabby arms * flabby arm help * flabby upper arms * etc

  There are really two key concepts to that particular predicament. Keep in mind that this is such a common question so you are certainly not alone in this. But just keep reading because the answer is pretty simple and may surprise you!

  First, get the idea out of your head that there’s any such thing as ’spot reduction.’ Meaning, if you do certain exercises for that area, the fat will magically disappear just from there and your arms will suddenly be taunt and tone again. Let me give you a real quick lesson on fat. Don’t worry this is going to be easy.

  Your body stores fat. It stores it in general areas that are common to you as a female. Most men store the most fat in their stomachs. Women tend to store it in their thighs, hips and buttocks. But with anything, you can and will store fat wherever. So the first thing you want to do is…

  Reduce the body fat period!

  Once you start to reduce fat, you’ll see it disappear. Don’t bother with creams and rubs and all the other gimmicks out there. You cannot spot reduce. Your body stores fat and the only way to reduce fat in any particular area that is bothering you is to reduce fat period from your body as a whole.

  For all these reasons,…

  Your first mission, should you choose to accept it, is to reduce the body fat.

  Second, in order for that area of your arm to become tone, you’ll want to build muscle in the back of the arm. That is called the Tricep and there’s several good exercise you can do to build up that area.

  But first, let me give you a list of some of the best exercises for flabby arms that will focus on the tricep and help you develop the area and make it stronger. This isn’t all inclusive but it’s some of the more common and better exercises you can do for the back of the arms.

  * Weighted dips * Close grip bench press * Close grip push ups * Lying barbell French press * Overhead cable extensions * Cable press downs * Reverse cable press downs

  Frankly…

  Many people are caught up in the idea that in order for them to get rid of a problematic area they need to just work it out and do some exercises to target that area.

  But that’s only half of the solution as you’ve read.

  By working out the area AND reducing body fat, you will progress at twice the speed and make twice the visual differences.

  Let’s suppose you only worked out the back of the arms. The muscle would be stronger and firmer no doubts, but it might not show IF your level of body fat is such that the muscle is still covered up.

  As you see, by doing both, you will tone up (build) the tricep and make it more visible when the layer of fat that covers it up is reduced.

  Men and women who want to reduce the ‘flabby’ anything simply have to realize that it’s a combination of body fat in that area, maybe loose skin and a muscle that generally needs to be developed in order to be taunt.

  But I’m getting way ahead of myself!

  This is a two fold mission.

  1- Reduce body fat

  2- Do specific exercises to build muscle in the back of the arm so that once the fat is gone, you’ll have a tricep and it will appear tight and tone

  In a nutshell what this will do for you is make the back of your arms less flabby as the fat is lost from your body and the new muscle will bring added tone and tightness to the back of your arm.

  something you can do to work on hand-eye coordination is 1. you can use other sports like tennis,or racquetball to help with hand eye coordination.
  2. you can also use what’s called a vibe disc, which works on balance, hand eye coordination, and a full body strength workout.
  3. you can also use a tennis ball, throwing it up against a wall alternating hands and then adding foot movement. It works not only hand eye coordination but also reaction time,and balance.

  Coordination, balance, and body control are all important to develop into a good basketball or any sports player.
