    "brain crunchers" isolate your triceps. It's an actual exercise with weights :smile:

    It seems they're more commonly called "brain crushers" or "skull crushers".

    Here's a youtube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTfhYeYXcy8

    Looks like a good exercise, though, thanks for the suggestion. My arms are OK, but tris could always use some work.

    I too suffer from bingo wings and old ladies back fat (the stuff that hangs out of your bra) despite being only 17% body fat. If they are hard to get rid of the cause could also be hormonal (Estrogen/testosterone imbalance). My trainer suggested Green Tea extract (if you can stand the caffeine). That seems to be helping for me without any extra weight training.

    Thanks to always having fat upper arms, and now loads of loose skin in that area, I'm embracing them. Between the loose skin on my upper arms, and my thighs, I figure I'll be like a flying squirrel if I lose just a little bit more. I'm looking forward to gliding about the place. Should make commuting less of a pain! :D

    Amazing! I'm hoping with more weight loss and continued heavy lifting I will have arms like that! Great job and very inspiring.

    I don't have much hope for my upper arms improving very much after being overweight for 16 years, and being 53 now. I work my triceps a lot, but there's no way I'll ever get enough muscle to fill the space, and if I did I'd look like Popeye!

    Haha, I've always heard those referred to as "skull crushers"

    Bump - waiting for more pics & success stories too!

    I'm one of those owning bingo wings and I hate them -.- even though I could still lose a good amount of weight, I lost several kgs and they didn't go away! I guess my arms are much smaller now, but exercise only improved my biceps and triceps... I'm starting to wonder if I have to lose a lot of kgs or get very ripped in order to get rid of them.
