Arm Toning Mistakes
There are specific ways of doing flabby arm exercises that give you the biggest bang for your buck. And there are ways of doing said exercises that give you the smallest bang for your buck.
Sometimes, women pay attention to the junk and end up with some serious injuries. The good news is that I’ve done a lot of research and I’m ready to share some of my findings.
Before I get started, I would like to point out that you need to avoid being overwhelmed by all the information out there. Simply take action even if you have limited information. Action is the only thing that will produce results.
So here are 4 big mistakes women make when performing arm exercises:
1. Closing your eyes. As ridiculous as this sounds, many trainers will have their clients close their eyes to increase coordination. Not only is this unnecessary, but it limits the maximum amount of weight you can use. And you need maximum weights if you want to get rid of the flab ASAP.
2. High-repetition work. You will not tone your arms any faster by doing 12 or more repetitions per set. You will actually slow down the toning process because higher repetitions (and lighter weights) do not work all your muscle fiber types. And you need to work all your muscle fibers types if you want the sexiest arms possible.
3. Repeating the same workout. Doing this is the fastest way to reach a plateau. And plateaus are the most demoralizing thing out there, seriously. Aim to have a new and fresh workout every single time you enter the gym.
4. Body weight exercises. I’m sorry, but body weight exercises do not allow you to place enough stress on your muscles. They may be appropriate if you are a beginner. However, the best approach is to use free weights with maximum intensity for maximum arm flab reduction.
Don’t get bogged down with all the information about arm-toning exercises. You have to take action or results will never come! Simply ignore the feeling of overwhelm and get started now, not tomorrow. With the above pointers in mind, your toned arms will be right around the corner.
