If you want to find out how to tone your arms in as little time as possible then you are not too different from the thousands of other women out there who ask the same question on a regular basis. The good news is today you shall find out how to do this, the bad news is you'll need to do some work.
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.
To prove that point, this workout contains only five exercises: []
* Front Deltoid Raise
* Biceps Curl
* DB Reverse Flye
* Dumbbell Triceps Kickback
* Close-Grip Push-Up
All five movements need to be done as a circuit, with one exercise immediately following the other. Try to get through it without any rest periods until you reach the end of the round. As you'll be doing 8 repetitions on every single exercise you will have a tricky 40 reps to get through here.
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 main areas you'll hit with a workout of this type are the front and back of your shoulders, your biceps and your triceps. The triceps is the muscle which most women are concerned with as it's responsible for the problem many call 'jelly arm syndrome', where loose flabby skin hangs from the arm if it is elevated.
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.
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.
