Great results can be achieved in a relatively short time frame if you are smart with your actions, so don't be so quick to presume every short-term fitness concept is too good to be true. While you'll see thousands of people looking to learn things such as how to get a six pack in 3 minutes and it's easy to laugh at their longing for an instant solution to their problems, the truth is you can achieve fantastic results on any body part providing you train effectively in whatever time you have available for it.
For example, there are only 5 movements featured in this arm workout: []
* Dumbbell Front Raise
* Dumbbell Biceps Curl
* DB Reverse 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 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.
The most common question which surrounds the topic of how to tone your arms is easily the time frame for expected results. If you can train 2-3 times per week with a bunch of proven exercises such as the ones you have done today then you should be seeing a noticeable difference in as little as two weeks.
