Tone Your Upper Arms
One of the most common body parts that our female members ask us to help them with is the stubborn loose skin on the upper arm, also referred to as Bingo Wings.
This problem area covers your tricep muscle and the good news is that you can do something about it. By combining a mixture of the following exercises with...
...you could be waving goodbye to the bits that wobble when you wave.
Exercise 1
Lie flat on an exercise mat. Take a comfortable weight and hold it at arms length above your head. Keeping your arms straight, slowly lower the weight as far back as you can, hold, then slowly return to the starting position. Repeat 3 x 10 times.
Exercise 2
They might seem like cheating but half press-ups are surprisingly effective. Resume the classic press-up position but let your knees drop to the floor. Then raise your feet and cross them behind you. Breath out as you push up, breath in as you lower yourself down. Repeat 3 x 10 times.
Exercise 3
Tripcep press down: With your feet hip-width apart, grab the bar with your hands on top and pull the bar down so your arms are straight. Remember to keep your elbows close to your sides, your chin up and to breath out as you push the bar down. Repeat 3 x 10 times.
Exercise 4
Seated bicep curl: With a dumbbell in each hand, sit on an exercise ball. Pull in your stomach and keep your upper arms stationary as you work from the elbow to curl the weight towards your shoulders. Remember: your palms should be facing your shoulders and you should breath out as you curl upwards. Repeat 3 x 10 times.
