Yep...it just hangs there. I've lost a lot of weight in the last ten years and have been working out to tone. I feel pretty good about my body but the arms are too big. I use weights and do yoga...any suggestions? IP: Logged |

Those are your tricep muscles...the backs of the upper arms. Find some good tricep exercises and there are a lot of them. IP: Logged |

Hey annie, I share your same 'problem'. I have such flabby arms, that when the wind blows I worry that I might take off in flight! I try and do between 30-50 minutes of cardio 5 days a week. My gym closed down two weeks ago so I've been without machines and free weights. Ugh. I would suggest some push-ups, some bench/chair dips, cable tricep extensions...I suppose the excerises you can do depend on if you have access to a gym or not. Do a search on Bodybuilding.com and you'll find a list of about 35 excerises you can do. IP: Logged |
