The triceps is the area where the arm flab resides. It’s that one spot that so many women have become self conscious about. And if you want to tighten up your arms, you have to know what exercises to do.
Unfortunately, there are an excess of opinions on which exercises are best for losing arm flab.
There is so much advice out there that you could become lost in the sea of information. Or even worse, you might never get started because of analysis paralysis.
So ignore the hype and read my analysis of machine triceps extensions for losing arm flab:
1. Snap shot: This exercise does a great job of targeting the long head of the triceps. This is the specific area where most arm fat hangs from. It’s commonly referred to as the bingo wing.
2. Technical jump start: Find a machine with a bar attached to a pulley. Face away from the machine. Grab the bar with an overhand grip, keep your arms behind your neck and dig into the ground with your feet. Push the bar upwards at an angle. Then return it in a controlled manner.
3. Frequent mistakes: Allowing the back to fall out of alignment. Not keeping the elbows frozen in place. Allowing the head to dip forward. And pushing against the machines bar after the triceps have reached the point of absolute fatigue.
4. Final word: This is a top-tier exercise for directly toning the area where most women need help. The area where the jiggle lives! And remember that you can go heavy with this one and have minimal risk for injury. So make this exercise a staple in your arm toning program.
Doing the most effective exercises will get you the fastest results. Wasting time with flashy gadgets and flashy movements will most likely de-motivate you in the long run. After all, the best way to get toned arms is with basic movements done with intensity. Go heavy and go hard and you’ll get sexy arms in no time!
