Hey all, losing weight quite nicely (4 stone since December 2015) any tips to tone up my arms, they don't seem to tone lol... currently I've got a punch bag and some 2kg n 5kg girly handweights which I use when on the cross trainer / bike. Any exercises or items I can buy to tone them? Everywhere else seems to be snapping back nicely, just my arms, no definition. pointers please :)

    Congratulations on your weight loss! Anything that works those triceps will keep those muscles nice and toned. Keep at it! Unfortunately, we often cannot lose extra skin.

    then lift heavy - get some weights that aren't girly and go for it.

    Skull crushers, tricep pull downs as accessories to a good progressive compound lifting programme.

    Cheers, h

    you can't change the skin hanging down, but you can pump up your triceps to fill your arms out. Do a bunch of tricep exercises . but do full body , its better for you.

    Lifting heavier weights got rid of mine :smile: chest /shoulder presses were excellent and rows. Also overhead presses.

    It's body fat. As was said, fat loss can't be targeted, so just keep losing weight, and do full-body strength training to preserve muscle. Good strength programs include NROL4W, Fitness Blender, Stronglifts, etc.
