I'd say just show them off.0

Yoga might help. Make sure to stretch enough after working your muscles.0

Don't lift so heavy.
Barring that... that's how you are built. Eff it.0 -
Their is nothing you can do it is genetics be proud of what you got if they aren't flabby be happy.0

Embrace it!
It could be worse -- you could have man hands.0 -
I wanna see a picture!!
Are you lifting heavy weights? Doing a ton of bicep curls?! My biceps are pretty large for my frame so I've backed off biceps a bit!

12" are man arms? Mine are 14". I'd LOVE to have 12" arms. Seriously.0

ME TOO! my arms are 14 inches and my neck is 13 inches. My arms are bigger than my neck! My friend (who has "girl arms" actually told me i have "man arms" while we were at the gym. I figured it was just how your body's composition is. Im interested in what people come up with too! I personally dont mind it too much, just bc I have always lived with it. Better than flabby.... right?0

That is light weight! Well, you must just build awesome muscle!! I say embrace it, girl!0

I will add yoga....How many times a week? 1/2?Yoga might help. Make sure to stretch enough after working your muscles.0

Ditto show them off!
Who cares how big they are? Michelle Obama wears her guns proud!0 -
Definitely all muscle? Tense your arm and then grab all the flabby bits. That's fat, which will go as you lose weight. Never thought I'd say this, but I hope it's more fat than muscle for you!0
