    You have the same arm muscles as men. You train in the same way!

    BEFORE anyone says it - you cannot get big because you won't have the calories in your diet to allow that. You need a massive calorie surplus to build muscle.

    BOOM! This. :D

    Raise your arm like your asking a question in class. Hold the elbow steady with the other hand.
    Bend the raised arm down behind you at the elbow. Repeat.

    I'm only using a 3lb weight for this because I have serious carple-tunnel in both wrists- I'm uninsured and can't afford to aggrevate it right now- but I have seen a noticeable difference in my triceps. No bat wing for me this summer!!


    I like this b/c it makes sure you do it with the correct form...Thanks for sharing!! :)
