You can try tricep dips. You can google or youtube the videos on how to do them. They really work.

Use a battery of tricep and bicep exercises and plenty of hydration. Youtube is a great resource for finding new exercises.

But do understand that while building arm muscle (biceps and triceps) will do a great deal of good for the definition in your arms, you cannot "burn" away the flappy arms with exercise. It is likely a combination of fat and loose skin. The added muscle will "fill in" some- sort of give your arm a better base- but it won't get rid of the flabby bit per se. (There is no exercise that spot-burns specific fat).

Unfortunately, in order to get the arms you want, you *may* have to resort to plastic surgery eventually.

But as far as the exercises go, the dips are fantastic-- but so are good, old fashioned push-ups (and there are many variations if you're not ready for regular ones yet.)

You can do standing push-ups against a wall if you can't do regular ones.

i use small weights and do curls front and back. then i get a chair and do pushups but not facing the chair. i think it has helped. swimming can be another good choice. goodluck:thumbup:

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
