How To Get Rid Of Those Flappy Bat Wing Arms

Unless you have been involved in an exercise routine, you may begin to notice (or already have) that flab that hangs from underneath your upper arms. In fact, you can wiggle it like so much Jell-O. Well, here are some exercises designed for getting rid of ugly bat wing arms.
Using 1-2 pound hand weights and a jump rope, follow this routine: Skip rope for one minute; then rest. Then lift the weights over your shoulder for 60 seconds. Repeat this routine twice. Voila! If you do this exercise three times per week, within a month the bat wings will be gone!
If you have never exercised before, here are some simple ways to target your triceps; biceps and shoulders. Well, why not? You might as well exercise the entire arm, right? You will need a resistance band, first. Okay, here we go:
Triceps: Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding an end of a resistance band in each hand. Extend your left arm diagonally up and your right arm diagonally down, palms out. Bend your right elbow, bringing right fist and forearm in toward your chest. Do 8 to 10 reps; switch arms and repeat.
Biceps: Stand on the center of a resistance band, feet shoulder-width apart, arms down at sides. Hold an end of the band in each hand, palms facing each other. Bend both elbows, keeping them tucked into sides, to bring hands up toward shoulders while rotating wrists 180 degrees so that palms face out at the top, then lower. Do 8 to 10 reps.
Shoulders: Place the center of your feet on a resistance band and stand with feet shoulder-width apart. Hold an end of the band in each hand, arms straight down at sides, palms facing your body. Raise your arms straight out to the sides to chest height so that they are parallel to the floor; hold for two counts; lower and repeat. Do 8 to 10 reps.
Feel better? Just think, with these exercises you can wear your favorite dresses, blouses, gowns, or other fine clothes sitting in the closet. More importantly, the next time you wave to a friend or neighbor, you will not take off on a flight path to the nearest cave! Or, you won't be entirely humiliated on your next trip to the doctor when the nurse tells you she can not take a blood sample because your arm is so thick she can not locate the vein. Then she proceeds to recommend lifting hand weights. Instead of slinking down in your chair, you will be able to proudly show off your sculpted arms.
All kidding aside, exercise for whatever reason can only enhance your body and improve your health. Do it for you; not for anyone else. Make it your decision; not the nurse's insensitive remark. Just do it!
