Having toned arms means you look amazing in your favorite clothes, and you will also notice a big difference in how you feel. While you may normally think of toned arms as something that requires hours of work in the gym, I’ve got some easy exercises that you can do at home!</span></span></div> <b id="docs-internal-guid-4c844851-96b4-b82f-dd1a-61b4b1702c0c" style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b> <br /> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 4pt; margin-top: 4pt;"> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Arm circles: standing up tall and straight, extend your arms straight out to your sides (so you’re in a “T” shape). With your palms facing the floor, move your arms in quick, tight circles. These circles may not sound like a very intense workout, but they will help tone your upper arms.</span></span></div> <b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b> <br /> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 4pt; margin-top: 4pt;"> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Push-ups: push-ups are simple, but they’re a great exercise to give you toned arms. The key is to make sure you’re doing your push ups with the right form. Use the same straight, tall posture you would if you were standing standing up and hold a nice line through your body. Make sure you’re holding this form even when you’re in the lower position of your push-up. </span></span></div> <b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b> <br /> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 4pt; margin-top: 4pt;"> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Planks: like push-ups, planks are going to help you get nicely toned arms while also working your legs and core. Get even more out of the standard plank by raising one arm and touching it to your shoulder on the opposite side of your body. Repeat this for the other arm, and continue alternating until you are done.</span></span></div> <b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b> <br /> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 4pt; margin-top: 4pt;"> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Weights: if you have some dumbbells at home, try adding in a few weight exercises as well. Bicep curls are a nice way to sculpt toned arms. Hold a pair of dumbbells, letting your arms hang slightly. In a slow, steady motion, bend at your elbow to lift the weight, bringing your forearm to your chest. With the same motion, lower the weight back down until it returns to the starting position. Bicep curls are a simple way to start doing weight lifting exercises.</span></span></div> <span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><span style="font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">By adding these easy exercises to your existing routine, you’ll have toned arms before you know it! What I like most about these exercises is that you can do them just about anywhere, and most of them don’t require any equipment. That means you can squeeze in a quick workout on even the most hectic day! Whether you want toned arms or just want to learn more about nutrition, I’m here to help.

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #666666;">Great arm workouts are the answer to looking amazing in those strapless dresses, halter tops and swimsuits. And guess what? You don’t need to go to the gym to get toned arms. Great arm workouts can be done in the comfort of your own home! Here are the moves I’ve put together to use as one of your great arm workouts; doing this 3-4 times a week will get incredible results so you won’t have to think twice before choosing which shoulder bearing piece to wear. Work up to the numbers I suggest - start with whatever works best for you and then gradually increase.</span></span><br /> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></span> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMI5Cs5oCF1aTnA2NKW9sXj296a2rLxlC_psWgfsRs1GijpgSEqq7mEFk5t6dWZ0jjyOhTtSAfCqjHFvYICjlUQ5m8PVF0ey73bLer8I15qXZKOy0cNWTBaRacMk9VaFzrBeYletNyHmfn/s1600/IMG_3813.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMI5Cs5oCF1aTnA2NKW9sXj296a2rLxlC_psWgfsRs1GijpgSEqq7mEFk5t6dWZ0jjyOhTtSAfCqjHFvYICjlUQ5m8PVF0ey73bLer8I15qXZKOy0cNWTBaRacMk9VaFzrBeYletNyHmfn/s1600/IMG_3813.jpg" width="300" /></a></div> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></span></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> <b id="docs-internal-guid-5236e404-cefa-30af-2d39-e14f40548ab0" style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></b></div> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #666666;">My top exercises for great arm workouts:</span></span></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> <b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></b></div> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="color: #666666;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Push Ups</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> (25) - Standard push-ups are one of the best moves around. Great arm workouts usually involve push ups if you are looking for something that works every muscle in the arm in addition to the core. Make sure to keep your body straight the whole time. </span></span></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> <b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></b></div> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="color: #666666;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Arm Circles </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">(50) - This one seems simple but it can be a killer! Stand with feet shoulder width apart and engage the core muscles. Then put your arms straight out to the side and do 50 arm circles backward and 50 forward. For intensity in great arm workouts, add some weights!</span></span></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> <b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></b></div> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="color: #666666;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Chair Dips</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> (25) - Don’t forget about the triceps during great arm workouts. Put hands on the seat of a chair with fingers facing forward and feet on the ground in front of you with knees straight. Dip your booty straight down the ground and then push back up.</span></span></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> <b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></b></div> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="color: #666666;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Push Up Circles</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> (10) - Start in a push up position and shift your chest over your right wrist as far as possible, then lower down to one inch above the ground. Shift chest as far over left wrist as possible and then push back and return to normal push up position. Repeat 10 ten times and then do the same thing going in the opposite direction. If this one doesn’t make you sore, I don’t know what will!</span></span></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> <b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></b></div> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="color: #666666;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Push Up Jumps</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> (20) - Involve the push up position as much as possible for great arm workouts! For this move, start in a push position then jump hands and feet out at the same time to make an X position with your body and jump back to push up position.</span></span></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> <b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></b></div> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="color: #666666;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Plange Dip</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> (20) - Start in an elbow plank, then slowly rock forward until chin is one inch from ground and pull back to elbow plank position. This is also super awesome for the core so make sure to be squeezing your stomach too.</span></span></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> <b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></b></div> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="color: #666666;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Pike to Elbows</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> (25) - Start in a downward dog position, slowly lower right elbow to the ground and then left so that both forearms are on the ground, then push right elbow back to straight and follow with the left. </span></span></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> <b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></b></div> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="color: #666666;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Pike Push Up</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> (20) - Start in a downward dog position, then bend elbow to touch the top of the head to floor and push back up. This move is awesome for working the shoulders so make sure to fit it in!</span></span></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> <span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> </div> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #666666;">What are you waiting for?
