ANewMe428 125 Posted July 19, 2013 Since loosing 70+ pounds I noticed my arms are EXTREMELY drooping. I tried strengthening with weights & resistance bands but still nothing. Does anyone have any tips on how to improve arms? Maybe im not doing it right or for long enough.Right now I have wings and I'm not a chicken.

The trick is keeping it tight as you lose weight so it doesn't get saggy. Once the hanging skin is already there, you're pretty much stuck with it unless you get plastic surgery. Again, I could be wrong, it's just my observation. 1 mrsto reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrsto 2,925 Posted July 19, 2013 Mis - I think you're right on with this. Unless someone is 14 years old! Okay, time to pick up the hand weights. I've been dragging my ass on this, knowing well and good that I'll have major flappers if I don't do it. When I lost weight last time, my arms were in great shape. But I started with the weights at the same time I started losing weight. Ugh......I've gotten so la-Z 1 ladyjordan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trisket 46 Posted July 21, 2013 Keep it up with the weights. They have helped my arms so much. Im 100 down from my heaviest ever and I go sleevless daily. 1 ANewMe428 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ANewMe428 125 Posted July 23, 2013 I go sleeve less daily also but I don't like the looks of my arms. How many lbs should my weights be? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trisket 46 Posted July 23, 2013 Just depends. Start low and build up. I do crossfit so Im doing heavy weights now. If youre are at a gym they should have a trainer who could help you form a good workout routine to do a few times a week. When it gets tok easy increase the weight.
