Upper Arm Exercises - What Did/do You Do?



Recommended Posts

Hello - I have been scouring the internet looking for upper arm exercises because they are looking quite flabby. I found some that look good but looking for suggestions from the pro's on the board - please recommend your favorites and one's that you know work!

I use a band (looks like a very large rubber band 12” long) I hold one end behind my back, right above my bottom, with the band going up my back towards my head, I pull that end straight up above over my head then relax behind my back as far as possible, I do 3 reps of 15 then switch hands and do another 3 reps of 15 you should feel the burn right where your trouble area is, if not readjust, make sure palm of hand is facing up, make sure you are standing straight, keep elbow up high as far as you can before you start, do reps nice and steady about 2 seconds apart not rabbit speed but not turtle speed either, I take my band everywhere with me, it fits in my pocket , I do one set in the a.m. and one set in the p.m. and random sets whenever possible. started these in April of last year and at that time I was barely able to get 1 rep of 15 done, now on my last sets it is still very hard and it isn’t uncommon for me to grunt like a body builder getting out those last 3 lol, also it took 3 months before I noticed any difference in appearance. Good luck bandsters hope that has helped. :D

      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.

      Lost my Pup last month and struggled really hard for that first month. Stopped tracking intake and slid into old habits here and there. Also quit working out. Can't walk in the neighborhood because of all of the memories we shared. Losing my Pup is the most heartbreaking thing I've ever been through. My Pup was my world 💔
      Talked to my doc during my one year followup and they were not worried about my current status. They know, and I know, that I will get back on track.
