There are specific ways of doing flabby arm exercises that give you the biggest bang for your buck. And there are ways of doing said exercises that give you the smallest bang for your buck.

Even worse, if you make some common postural mistakes when doing the exercises, you could end up with some serious injuries. Luckily for you, I've spent a lot of time and money figuring all of this out.

So please do not fall under the paralysis by analysis spell!

Here are 4 critical things you should NOT be doing when performing arm exercises:

1. Closing your eyes. As ridiculous as this sounds, many trainers will have their clients close their eyes to increase coordination. Not only is this unnecessary, but it limits the maximum amount of weight you can use. And you need maximum weights if you want to get rid of the flab ASAP.

2. Sets with lots of repetitions (12 or more). This is one of the most common misconceptions out there. Doing lots of repetitions per set will NOT tone your arms quickly. In fact, doing lower repetitions with heavier weights WILL tone your arms very quickly because heavy weights tax all the muscle fibers in your arm.

3. The same old workout again and again. I don't understand how women can do the exact same workout for months on end. Do this, and your results will come to a screeching halt before you even get to notice them. To ensure fast and recurring results, never do the same workout twice.

4. Exercises with the weight of the body. Perhaps appropriate for beginners. But if you want the fastest results you are much better served using free weights. Free weights allow you to work your muscles from many angles with as much weight as you want.

Make sure you never get buried with all the information floating around out there. Remember that the only way to see results is by taking action now, not later. Don't worry about getting every single detail right. Avoid the above errors and get going!
