How To Tone The Back Of Your Arms

By Howe Russ


If you are like most women, the question of how to tone your arms probably comes up quite regularly when discussing your fitness goals. Today we will answer this question for you with a sample workout designed to hit the specified area very effectively.

With everybody selling get fit quick formulas or teaching how to get a six pack in 3 minutes it is no wonder people are frantically searching for the fastest possible way to get in shape. However, just because something looks too good to be true doesn't mean it actually is. In fact you can create great results in a short space of time if you know what you are doing.

The workout today consists of only 5 moves: []

* DB Front Raise

* Biceps Curl

* Dumbbell Rear Delt Flye

* Dumbbell Triceps Kickback

* Triangle Push-Up

You will be performing all 5 exercises without any rest, one after the other until the entire circuit is complete. Each exercise consists of eight repetitions so that gives you a mighty 40 reps to battle through.

At the end of a circuit you can rest and grab a drink of water. Try to keep rest periods low as this will only enhance your results further and also introduce a fat burning aspect to the program. Aim for a one minute rest period at the end of each round and shoot for 4 rounds in total.

The main area of concern is the triceps, which sits on the back part of your arm. Many women have an issue here with the muscle wobbling a bit more than they would like, so this workout will hit the specified area. You'll also notice it works on the areas surrounding the muscle in question, too.

By toning the triceps area, which you can do with this type of simple exercise routine, you are able to eliminate this issue and sculpt leaner, toned arms which you can be proud to own. However, if you were only to focus on the triceps alone you would create an uneven, mismatched look to each arm so that is why you'll find exercises which also target the muscles around the area in question, too.

One of the main reasons this issue is still a concern for many women who already exercise is the weight that they choose to use when training with resistance. Many women stick purely to cardiovascular machines, while those who do train with weights are often too scared to increase the resistance to a suitable level for fear it might make them bigger. This is not something any lady should be concerned with, as females don't release anywhere near the required amount of natural testosterone to build significant amounts of muscle tissue.

With only 8 reps on every exercise in a circuit you enable yourself to use a weight which is challenging, rather than a tiny dumbbell you could lift for hours on end if you had to.

So the next time somebody asks you how to tone their arms you now know that they do not need to spend countless hours in the gym to see results. Just a simple circuit which targets the triceps muscle, as well as the surrounding areas, can produce fantastic results in very little time.
