    Tricep dips are excellent, and you don't need any special equipment.

    Maybe you should not be doing weight training everyday, Muscles grows when they are at rest. Also are you getting enough protein for your muscles to growth to get tone?

    Try to find a Les Mills Body Pump class in your area. It is a TOTAL body workout....and it's awesome! I've been taking it 2-3 times a week for 4 months...

    Love this! Never thought of that! How about pilates or yoga? The last time I lost weight, I used pilates and it helped tone up my flabbies. I'll be using it again as soon as I lose more weight.

    Its a beachbdoy home fitness program. Its all about building muscle and getting toned. Tricep dips are great if your trying to target your triceps. =D but there are many parts to your arm.

    true, true. I was responding to the fact that the OP said she was angry about the flab on her arms. Usually the flabby part of the arm would be the tricep.

    Protein Shake are good. You do need to take Whey Protein within 30 minutes of your workout. Also make sure your getting some type of Protein with each meal. For example I may have Oatmeal with a scope of vanilla protein powder, Ground Flax seed meal, Wheatgerm or two eggs with spinach and feta cheese cooked in tsp of Olive Oil. Greek Yogurt is good also. At night before I go to bed I take Casein Protein because it is slow digest protein for your muscle. You need Whey after a workout because it is fast digesting protein. Only take Casein at bed time or if you are going a long period of time without eating.
