Knowing how to do arm exercises for women the right way is important because it\’s not easy to hide extra arm jiggle. If you have floppy arm flab, your clothing selection will be severely limited.

Unfortunately, most women do not know how to get toned arms and all those sexy tops they have simply remain in the closet. But there is a way, and I am going to show you the way.

I never had toned arms as a young woman. And I wanted them so badly. I tried almost everything out there in an attempt to finally go sleeveless.

Please learn from my mistakes! Here are some common misconceptions about arm exercises for women that you HAVE to look out for:

1. Spot reduction is impossible. While it is true that you can\’t force specific areas of your body to lose fat first, you can change how your arms look with minimal fat loss. Fat loss is only part of the equation and in some cases not necessary. The key is to firm up the muscle with very specific weight training, and to manipulate the amount of water and carbohydrate within it.

2. Push-ups are an excellent exercise for the back of the arm. Most of the push-up movement targets your chest, not your arms. Does it make sense to spend time doing an exercise that doesn\’t tighten up your arms? Of course not! I cringe every time I hear an \”expert\” claiming that this is one of the best arm exercises for women.

3. Dips are excellent. Correct, dips are excellent for destroying your shoulder! Do them long enough and your AC joint (where clavicle meets acromion) will eventually wear out. This movement puts your shoulder in a very unstable position.

4. Kick-backs. These are ok if you want to momentarily fill your triceps with blood, but not ok if you want to tone your arms as quickly as possible. Because of the position your body is in when doing this exercise, it\’s impossible to add a lot of weight to the movement without compromising your form. Without a lot of weight, you can\’t tone your arms quickly.

Unfortunately, there is a lot of misinformation out there about arm exercises for women. Never has it been so confusing for women to get the right answers when they need them: now. But now you know what to look out for before starting your sexy arm workout program!
