Total Body Weight Loss
I will keep saying this all the time because it is a rumor that I want to put to rest. You cannot lose fat from only one area of your body. If you want to lose fat off of your abs or legs, you have the lose fat from your entire body. So, if you want to have toned arms one must start by getting on a healthy diet and quality exercise program to lose a few pounds

The Arms

When we speak of toned arms we are usually speaking of the upper arm above the elbow. This consists of three main muscle groups. It is important that you know a little bit about the muscle groups and how they work as it will assist you in perfecting your weight lifting technique and thus in your achieving your goals.

The main muscles that we are concerned with are the biecps, triceps and to a lesser extent the shoulders and forearms. These are the muscles that are visible when wearing a singlet, for example.

The bicep is used for any movement of the arm where one is pulling something in towards the chest or lifting something off of the ground. The tricep is used for any movement that extends the arm away from the body like pushing. It is important to tense your muscles occasionally and get a feel for what position tightens them the most because this will be important for proper weight training.
