5 Pointers For Losing Arm Fat

By Katherine Crawford M.S.

When learning how to lose arm fat, your first priority should be to understand how the 5 major muscles in your arm work. There are no shortcuts here. You absolutely need to have an intimate understanding on how to properly exercise all your arm muscles.

At this juncture, your mind is probably being flooded with images of beastly arms. The truth is that you will never get beastly arms so stop worrying about it. Before another image pops into your head, let me elaborate.

The organ systems within the female body produce 60% less testosterone (arm muscle hormone) than the organ systems within the male body. Thus, the female body does not have the necessary amount of hormones to produce manly arms. No matter how hard you train, this will never happen to you!

If you want to learn the truth on how to lose arm fat, please do not fall prey to all the outdated myths floating around. And dont even dare obsess over the images of high-level female bodybuilders. Please bear in mind that they train a couple hours every single day and pump exogenous sources of testosterone into their system.

Too many of my female clients fear weight training because they do not want to look like a cross between a man and a woman. Please do not let the same fear keep you from touching a weight. Instead, here is what you should focus on when learning how to lose arm fat:

1. The triceps muscles in your arms. The triceps (meaning three) is comprised of 3 major muscles and accounts for sixty percent of your arm mass. To properly work all the triceps muscles, you have to isolate the long, medial and lateral head. A great exercise for the lateral head is press-downs.

2. Proper biceps stimulation. The biceps group in your arm consists of 2 main muscles and forms forty percent of your arm mass. It has a long and short muscle. Concentration curls with a dumbbell is a great exercise for the long muscle.

3. Avoiding calorie counting. Count calories and deprive yourself, and you will end up hating life. Once you lay off the counting and deprivation, all the arm fat (and more) will come right back. Focus on the quality of what you eat, not the quantity.

4. Eat high-quality meals. Ignore all the hyped up diets, all you have to do is place a protein, carbohydrate, fat and vegetable source in each one of your meals. Figuring out how to lose arm fat is not that hard!

5. Intake of water. In overly simplified terms, 25% of your arm is muscle and 75% is water. Please pay attention to your water consumption so you do not miss out on seventy five percent of the how to lose arm fat equation! Stick to distilled and/or purified sources of water throughout the entire day, every day.

Understanding how to lose arm fat is not rocket science, although it can be a little tricky because of all the misinformation. But now you know the 5 things you should be considering so that the arm fat comes off faster than ever before! - 17269
