Re: flabby arms!

lift 5 lb weights (sorry, I can't do more than 5 lbs, so i would not recommend more for a beginner). Also push-ups.

Re: flabby arms!

Definately weights and push ups. The former will also tone your arm up better.

Re: flabby arms!

Pushup is the best thing for the whole body (toning). If you are want to loose it (if its really flabby) - gotta run.

btw, girls pushup are different than guys.

Re: flabby arms!

are girls sit-ups different to guys too? sum people say it doesnt matter but others say that they are not good for women!

Re: flabby arms!

great advise from every one above but i would like to add a word of warning

if you do exercise, try to keep it up because a few weekes after you stop you'll find its worse than before... same applies to stomach exercise

You have to be dedicated.

Re: flabby arms!

Knead your ata by hand, don’t laugh! :o You spend five to ten min on this activity everyday, so going back to worse condition is not a possibility. It works on shoulders and upper-back as well. A realistic option as you don’t have to invest extra money or take special time out for this :k:

Re: flabby arms!

Do all the house work, jhaaro and pooncha Twice a day, Do all the dishes and do all the ironing and do all the boot palish of all the male sibling or father etc.

When your abba comes home unki tangain dabya karo, or hubby if your are married.

Sawab ka Sawab, exercise ki exercise :k:

I will get double sawab for helping out girls :mash:

Re: flabby arms!

:hehe: That’ll give you a fabulous right hand and flabby left hand…

Re: flabby arms!

I have the same issues :bummer:

Re: flabby arms!

Yeah Right, Code-Red. You're the type of gulab jamun that would give his arm and leg to your wifey. You'd be massaging HER feet after she comes home from work.

Re: flabby arms!

It all depends on what your objective is. If you want more strength (in legs) then do full situps (boy or girl).

Girls only: If you want endurance / loose flab / loose weight etc. I suggest try to do half situps. They are like putting one foot forward and puttin the other knee on the floor (like proposing to someone) and then backup. Try to do as many as possible.

for beginners the general thumb of rule is:

Do 100% (as many as you possibly can) at one time.
Then do 60% of your number whenever you are excercising (its best if you workout 1 day and then let that part rest for 1 day)
Increase the count by 1 or 10% each week.

THE BEST xcercise to loose weight and tone your body is running! no alternative for that.

Re: flabby arms!

I am don't xcercise or into body building so if something is hurting or you are trying to achieve a lot (e.g loose 10/15 pounds) its better to stop and consult someone who can see your posture etc.

I would disagree with that. People can have a perfectly toned body by eating right and weight training if you are ready to do it. This is the same issue as trying to lose from one area. Situps etc are fine but the flab wont go - I started a thread "Exercise/Weights and etc..." where I gave a long reply to one of the folks here. Its not as hard as it seems you have to be patient and consistent with your efforts.

Re: flabby arms!

Hayee Allah ! Not only feet, but whole body .. :wink: I am very good at it :smooth: Ju banda bhi merey paas hota hai main uska massage karta rehta hoon, voluntarily :blush:

Azma ke dekh lo, Maza na ayee tu paisay wapas :k:

But here I don’t have falbby arms, these are lazy girls who don’t do much except, watching tv and gossiping on phone or internet :stuck_out_tongue:
