Hi,

My upper arms are in need of serious toning and sculpting. What's the best way to do that? And when should I see a difference?

Many Thanks,

Liz

    You CANNOT spot reduce. In order to get rid of the fat on your triceps, you need to lose overall body fat. I would suggest strength training AND doing half-cobra pushups. They target the triceps.

    I'm going to agree with OP that overall fat reduction is what will help 'bingo wings'. I too tend to carry fat in that area and I HATE it! :grumble:

    This was just discussed in another thread:

    Fat loss is a slow process, so enjoy the ride. ;-) Each month it will look better, if you're doing the right things (regular cardio, calorie deficit, full-body strength training).
