Sleeveless and Sexy—Get Sleek Arms For The Summer

November 1, 2017 By Karen Ficarelli

The popularity of sun dresses and sleeveless tops in summer means full exposure for your arms. You can be confident that they will look their best with exercises that are specially designed to fight arm jiggle and sculpt your arms from your shoulders to your fingertips.

Upper arm workouts, when done regularly will make keep the muscles in your arms toned and fit. The bigger the muscle, the less jiggle you will have in your arms. This is true for women who are underweight as well as women who are overweight. Developing your muscles will give your arms that beautiful sculpted look, which is desired by many.

When you begin to work your arms regularly, you will notice a difference in as little as 30 days. Less wiggle and jiggle and a larger muscle mass in your arm when flexed will be proof that with just a little bit of exercise directed as these small muscle groups can make a big difference.

You will find yourself opting out for the wrap, sweater and jacket to accommodate your dress or blouse. No longer wanting to hide your arms under clothing, you will want to take every opportunity to show them off.

If it’s hard to act out a story without having the embarrassment of jiggly arms, it is definitely time for you to start moving those wings. Arms are often neglected in cardio exercises like walking and running. That’s why it’s important to add hand weights when walking and use the handles on the elliptical machine to ensure your arms are getting worked too.
Below is an upper arm exercise that is designed to give you sleek and sexy arms that will look great in any outfit, sleeveless or not. This exercise, the Two Arm Overhead Dumbell Extension is a great exercise to help build muscles in your upper shoulder, triceps, biceps and core.
Position 1: Begin by grasping the stem of a dumbbell with both hands.
Position 2: Raise your arms overhead, bending your elbows and allow the weight to hang down behind your head as far as comfortably possible.
Position 3: Slowly straighten your arms keeping your elbows back and pointed toward the ceiling throughout the move.
Position 4: Contract your triceps, and then slowly lower the weight back along the same path to the start position.

Take it to the next level by increasing the weight of the dumb bell. Biceps will develop rapidly and you will be ready for all of those sleeveless days and nights of summer.
