Reduce fat in Upper arms

Kruba_Arunan · Jun 29, 2010

Dear friends,

My weight is ok, I am able to control it, my hips and tummy too are just average, not a big problem. But the biggest problem i face is my upper arm. It is too fat, and looks very much out of proportion compared to my lower arms. Can anyone suggest me some way of reducing the upper arm size.

I am taking oats for breakfast and a simple meal in the afternoon and at night. Diet plans are quite effective for my whole body, except the upper arms.

Any simple exercises? or any other suggestions? Pls reply:confused2:

Hi kruba,
Try doing dumbbell exercises for biceps and triceps. also you can do some asanas which are for reducing fat in upper arms. I dont remember them,will get back to you tomorrow meanwhile try googling for some simple exercises. Dumbbell triceps kickbacks and tricep extensions do wonderful changes to your arms.

Stretch your right hand to right hand side and left hand to left hand side.Just turn it round thats it,simple

i find this very useful. i use a small bottle of water as i am not allowed to lift weights you could use dumbbells - say 1kg.

raise you hand upwards. your hand should be symmetric to your ear.

bend your hand back almost like touching the back of the neck. you will feel the pressure in your upper arms, if you are doing it right and not just doing it. i do this exercise for my tennis elbow. and my physio therapist says that when you work it against the resistance, you will reduce the flab too...
