How to lose weight in my upper arm?? -

i try push-ups but it just seems to get bigger.. i m a pretty thin teen, but when my arms are by my side, they look big! is it because i have broad shoulders? what can i do to lose that flab?? go on a major diet scheme? any exercise i can do??

You want to try tricep dips, with your back to the edge of your bed, or your bath will do - that s what I find is a good height - bend your elbows down so they go to a 90 degree angle, make sure you use your arms to pull yourself back up not your legs as this defeats the objects. Do as many as you can without injuring yourself - this will help with toning your arms - failing that - dumb bells - or large tins of beans etc, anything to do with weights will give you lean toned muscle, nothing bulky.

Any exercise will increase muscle tone but it also burns the fat. Try arm exercises with lighter weights, they will tone without the bulk.

Asa teen, I would be more concerned with your body image - you say your body is thin but your arms look fat. Ask a trusted adult at school how you can get help with body image issues before it gets out of control.and for the record, you can t do exercises that will do spot reductions, although I promise you, you will hear people try to sell you otherwise all your life just because so many people wish it were so. It isn t so.Get help with that body image - your arms are not fat if the rest of you is thin and vice versa.

it is very clear that you need to improve your arms the best way for a girl to improve her arms is hand jobs 10/15times a week this will give u very good hand job muscels... failing this you can always try and take Dat Der Cell Tech

You can not target that fat under your arm. You must lose fat all over.The key is: Diet Diet Diet, then exercise:You need to eat 5-6 small meals a day. Eat some protein with each meal! Cut out all refined sugar!!! Also add more fiber. The fiber and protein will fill you up, helping you to cut down on your unhealthy eating. Also by eating more than 3 meals spread out through the day you will kick your metabolism in high gear. Here is a general meal for a day:Breakfast: 2 poached eggswhole wheat toast1/2 cup fruitSnack: Cottage Cheese with veggieLunch: Turkey, lettuce, tomato, whole wheat bread sandwich1/2 cup fruitSnack: Protein ShakeDinner: Turkey Burger ( no bun )Side of brown riceSide of Broc.Then exercise regularly 4-5 days a week. Do both cardio and lifting. But on days that you do both. Do lifting before your cardio and you will maximize your fat burn. Cardio can be a sport: basketball, soccer, football, anything with losts of movement. Golf is a no no.So Example :Monday - 30 mins lifting then 1 hr cardioTuesday - 1 hour liftingWednesday - RestThrusday - 30 mins lifting then 1 hr cardioFriday - 1 hour liftingSaturday - RestSunday - 30 mins lifting then 1 hr cardioFor exercises check out:http://www.xercisefactor.comThey have hundreds of exercise video clipsAlso check out the XGen to randomly generate a workout routine.
