When it comes to flab and a woman’s body, there’s nothing more embarrassing than to be walking down the street wearing a short sleeve (or no sleeve) top and then seeing someone you know across the street. They wave to you and in response you’re expected to wave back. I mean, that’s the natural thing to do when we see our friends. But when you’ve got flabby arms, a simple wave can lead to a red-faced moment of shame.

Let’s get real here. It’s just super embarrassing to see your sagging skin flapping around like a chicken every time you wave to someone, or reach for a can of peas on the upper shelf at the supermarket.

I’m sure you remember when there was a time when you didn’t have this problem. Those golden years when you were young and toned. You used to look at other women with flabby arms and vow you’d never let your arms look like that!

Okay, so life happens and since then you’ve put on a few pounds and your arms are now just a shadow of their former selves. I bet you do your best to cover them up whenever possible to avoid other people looking at your arms and secretly marveling that your skin could stretch so much.

It really sucks, but you don’t have to live with your flapping wings forever. If you’re willing to do what it takes to get back in shape and do some simple exercises, you can once again be proud to show off your beautiful arms in public.

3 Exercises to Get Rid of Flabby Arms

Pushups

Pushups are a great arm exercise because they rely on body weight to work your arm muscles. I know it may seem a little intimidating to do them because of all those men we’ve been watching do 100 pushups over the years. However, don’t let that stop you from using this exercise for your own purposes. You see, you can do a modified pushup where you lay down on the floor and bend your knees upward – this makes pushups much easier. You should do at least 10 repetitions.

Exercise Ball

There are so many exercises you can do on an exercise ball and there are several ways you can work with the ball to help tone up your arms. You can push the ball forward and backwards against the wall, push it up in the air and down again from the floor, etc. This is a fun and easy way to tone up.

Shoulder Press

Get yourself some 5-pound weights and sit down in a comfortable chair that has a straight back. Keep your back as straight as possible. Slowly lift the weights up over your head and then. Slowly lower the weights to shoulder level. Repeat 10 times.

While the above exercises work well, that alone isn’t enough to give you the look of nicely toned arms you’re seeking. You see, toning your arm muscles is only one step. The other step is that you must follow a diet plan that allows your body to drop the fat from all over – including your arms.

If you don’t work to lose weight, then all your arm workouts will be for nothing. Fat will continue to cover up those newly toned muscles. This is why people who workout and don’t bother changing the way they eat, end up being disappointed at their results. Spot exercising by itself isn’t enough – dieting and exercising is key to ending your flabby arm embarrassment for good.
