Fit Notes from Nancy


Toned Arms NOW!

How to get toned arms:

  • *How a person’s body responds to exercise is genetically coded, so the goal is to get the best arms available to YOU, not to get Michelle Obama’s arms, or anyone elses!
  • *Defined muscles are achieved by consistent strength workouts that focus on the shoulders, biceps, & triceps primarily.
  • *Tools can be varied, and can include weight machines, free weights, bands, or water tools.
  • *Enough weight/resistance should be used to FATIGUE the muscles being worked within 15 reps.
  • *Sets of 10-15 repetitions can be repeated 2 or 3 times
  • *Strength workouts should be done 2 or 3 times a week, for about 30 minutes to get to all of the major muscles.
  • *The key is to be CONSISTENT with patterns!
  • *Excess fat will cover beautiful muscles up, so be sure to eat well, and be at your proper weight
