A 3-minute workout to tone the underarms

The Advantage of Arm Training

Too often, we favor the strengthening of the stomach, thighs and buttocks at the expense of the arms. However, building muscle means having more strength and improving muscle performance during exercises that require the use of the arms. And the icing on the cake is that the aesthetic side is what we are most happy about.  No more bat arms and saggy skin under the triceps. The arms are more athletic and you will be proud to wear your favorite summer dress.

What do you say, ladies? We start for a short training session with, at the end of the day, a toning of the arms and an impeccable aesthetic. Go!

How to firm up sagging arms?

Here are some exercises that are sure to meet your goals. Here is an overview of the most effective movements for toned, sculpted and beautifully designed arms. For this, we advise you to get dumbbells so that the work of the muscles is more effective. They will be your allies for a good fitness routine. Start with a small load and then increase as the exercises last.

Tip: You can replace your dumbbells with water bottles!

Strengthening the biceps

Standing with your legs apart and semi-bent, hold the dumbbells in each hand;

Bend your elbows until you bring your hands towards your shoulders;

Perform 15 curls to repeat 3 times.

Tip: Watch your lower back while performing this exercise

Side elevation

Stand with your feet slightly apart, hold the dumbbells in your hands;

Bend one arm at chest level at 90° and then extend it upwards;

Go back down and then do the same movement with the other arm;

Repeat 15 times.

Tip: Keep your back straight and your body stable.

Biceps curl

While standing, with your feet shoulder-wide and your legs slightly bent, tilt your torso that it is almost parallel to the floor;

Hold the dumbbells in your hands with your arms outstretched downwards;

Bend your elbows and then lift the dumbbells by bending your arm and using your triceps;

Then lower your arms until they are straight.

Repeat this exercise 15 times.

Tip: Keep your elbows tight while doing this exercise.

Triceps strengthening

Lie on your back with dumbbells in your hands;

Extend your arms upwards;

Bring the dumbbells towards the chest by bending your elbows;

Do a series of 15 squats, repeating 3 times.

Also consider building up your stomach. We suggest some exercises for rock-solid abs.

For these exercises to be effective, it is advisable to perform them at least 2 or 3 times a week. After two weeks of training, you can increase the pace and do 2 to 3 sets, repeating each exercise 25 times. The same is true for the weight of the dumbbells. You can start with the 1.5 or 2 kg ones and then go up a notch as you evolve in practice. As you can see, if you are new to the subject, it is best to start with light dumbbells to avoid intense aches and pains from the first session.
You can be beautiful without suffering, ladies! But be careful! Be sure to warm up your arms before and avoid working your muscles when cold.

So if you want to sculpt pretty arms, what are you waiting for!
