Many women are focusing on ineffective exercises when trying to crack the “how to lose arm fat” code. Maybe you are one of these women

And it’s not your fault if you are. You see, many of the so called experts can’t come to a common conclusion on the best arm exercises for women.

Thus, I have decided to do an ongoing analysis of every single arm toning exercise I can get my hands on. I want to see what the facts are, not the opinions.

I want to do this so that you don’t have to waste all the time, energy and money that I had to waste. Thus, here is today’s analysis:

1. Quick snap-shot. Most fitness buffs do low pulley curls towards the end of a workout to “finish off” their biceps. In other words, it’s mainly used as a depletion exercise. The biggest positive about using a pulley is the reduced stress on the joints.

2. Technical overview. Stand erect and face a pulley machine. Grasp a bar with an underhand grip (i.e., palms facing up). Keep your elbows frozen in place and raise the bar. Then slowly return it to the starting position.

3. Most common technical issues. Allowing the chest to cave in and the shoulders to come forward. This puts your lower back in a bad position. Heave-hoeing the weight up. And raising the weight too high.

4. Bottom line. This exercise doesn’t really have anything very negative or very positive about it. For the most part, it’s simply average. There are better exercises out there that will tone your arms a lot quicker. Nevertheless, this would be a good exercise for a woman with some type of limiting injury that required reduced joint stress.

Make sure you don’t miss my next review. The more you learn about arm toning exercises, the faster you’ll get results. Learning how to lose arm fat doesn’t have to give you a mental hernia. Good luck!
