How To Tone Your Arms In 10 Minutes Per Day

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.

While you may see headlines such as 'How to get a six pack in 3 minutes' and presume that every short term fix appears too good to be true, today you will be genuinely surprised at how much you can change your physique in as little as a few minutes each day.

For example, there are only 5 movements featured in this arm workout: []

* Dumbbell Front Raise

* DB Arm Curl

* Rear Deltoid Flye

* Dumbbell Triceps Kickback

* Close-Grip Push-Up

All exercises are part of a circuit which needs to be worked through in one continuous set. Try your best to achieve eight reps on everything before stopping for a rest. That might not sound like very much, but it's actually 40 reps due to the fact there are five moves.

Once you have finished a circuit try resting for around 60 seconds before beginning another circuit. It's up to you how many times you wish to perform the circuit, but use 3-4 as a guideline because that's what most people are able to do once they have been exercising for a month or more.

The triceps is the part of the arm which most women refer to as 'bingo wings', or loose flabby tissue which hangs as they elevate their arms. While the triceps muscle is the area most women are concerned about, this workout will also help you to hit all of the major surrounding areas.

By targeting the muscles which surround the triceps you do two important things. First of all you eliminate the possibility of ending up with uneven, unbalanced arms which would occur if you focused all of your efforts on just training the back of your arms. Secondly, you strengthen the surrounding areas which in turn helps the triceps muscle even further.

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.

At eight repetitions on each exercise, you should be looking to use a weight which is as heavy as you can physically manage for the designated number of lifts. This will not only spur new progress and get that lean look your desire, but it will also make your workouts a lot more challenging and fun.

An effective arm session could have taken place in the time it has taken you to scroll through this article on how to tone your arms quickly. With as little as 10 minutes per day you will see noticeable changes within the first month if you are consistent with your efforts.
