Let me start by saying there is no such thing as spot reduction…. it’s completely impossible to spot-reduce fat. The region of the body that first reveals a noticeable decrease in body fat is pre-determined and is established by a person’s unique genetics.
Targeting certain areas of your body will not make fat disappear just in that area, you need to be following a good whole body training programme and eating a nutritious and wholesome diet because nutrition is 80% of the battle to achieving sexy toned arms!
It’s important that we lose body fat from our entire body and not just focus on the arms....
As I’ve mentioned in the past, my preferred method of exercise with my clients is circuit training. This includes a lower body exercise followed by an upper body exercise interspersed with short bursts of cardio or combining a lower and upper body exercise working multiple muscles at once. Both are fantastic ways of burning body fat and increasing your lean muscle. This will then fire up your metabolism, which helps you get a smoking hot body!
I’ve put together a short fat burning workout for you which you should do 4 x per week. After you have completed the 3 circuits (no rest in between), rest for 30 seconds and repeat 2 more times. The only equipment you need is a pair of dumbbells and a skipping rope. For those of you that know me or have read my free report, you know that I’m a true advocate of women lifting heavy weights. So please use a weight that is heavy enough that by the last repetition you couldn’t possibly do another one without compromising your form.
Bodyweight Squats x 12 reps
Press–ups x 10 reps
Squats Thrusts x 1 minute
Squats with Shoulder Press x 10 reps
Skipping x 1 minute
Reverse Lunge with Bicep Curl x 10 reps
Close Grip Press-ups x 10 reps
Squat Thrusts x 1 minute
Always remember to stretch well after you have finished!
There you have it, give it ago and let me know how you get on.
Stay fit, keep focused and feel fabulous!
