    Help

    I need some help. I started doing some dumbbell workout to tone my arms. But the problem is whenever I exercise with dumbbell my arms end up looking more fat. I'm not overdoing the exercise. I gradually increased the reps every week... started with 3 reps, then 6 reps, 8 reps and now I do each exercise 15 times. I have been doing the exercises for more than five weeks. If I stop doing the exercise for 3 or 4 days. My hands go back to normal shape. Anyone else faced similar problem? Is swelling really normal? Please advise.

    I have included the exercise I do in pictures. I use 1.5 Kg dumbbells for 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 and 3 Kg dumbbell for 6 and 7.

    1) Side shoulder raise

    Re: Help

    sruthi1407,

    You have to change the way you do the exercise. If you want to reduce, then use smaller weight (1 kg) and do more counts. Probably 15 to 20 counts. Repeat for 3 to 4 times. Each time do the same counts, like 15 to 20. Do this for 5 days a week.

    If you keep increasing the weight, it will increase the growth. Keep the lower weight and do more count. For each repetition maintain the same count.

    You can start feeling the difference after a month. Continuity is important.
