Six Things To Help You Lose More Arm Fat

So many women ignore the common knowledge of eating smaller meals consistently during the day and not starving oneself when learning how to lose arm fat ( also known as bingo wings ). Why do they do this? Because deep down inside women want to believe that starvation and extreme dieting will produce faster results.

In reality, many of the dirty dieting tactics set women up for devastating failure. Learning how to lose arm fat the right way shouldn't be so painful. Here are 6 must do's so that you don't end up hitting a brick wall:

No long workout routines are needed

1. Don't try to burn a crazy amount of calories. You are not the energizer bunny, so please don't spend hours and hours in the gym every day. All your arms need to stop jiggling is a short but hard workout (45min. or less), 2-3 times a week.

2. Don't keep a journal of every piece of food you eat. You are not a machine, so please don't act like one. Do this, and you'll end up feeling like a slave. Eventually, you'll reach a tipping point and throw in the flabby arms towel.

3. Focus on general eating patterns. All you have to do is make sure each one of your meals has a protein, vegetable, carbohydrate and fat source. If you want to take it to the next level, make sure you carbohydrate sources are only legumes. Do this, and everything else will fall into place.

Don't count calories

4. Forget about counting calories. Even worse than the food log, because now instead of pulling out your hair, you'll want to jump off a cliff. The whole calorie counting mumbo jumbo is based on an outdated closed thermodynamic model. In other words, the flawed idea that a 3500 caloric deficit produces 1 lb. of fat loss.

5. Keep eating your pleasure foods. The trick here is to reduce the serving size of the pleasure food and to accompany it with a source of vegetables. The reduced serving size minimizes caloric impact and the vegetable source will slow down digestion (think "glycemic load").

6. Don't have more than one serving of alcohol per day. Again, despite all the advice on this one, many of my female clients still drink way too much. Aside from a high caloric content, alcohol shuts down all your arm fat burning hormones. The good news is that the more you exercise, the less alcohol you need to achieve that "buzz" feeling.

I hope you aren't feeling intimidated by the process of learning how to lose arm fat. Changing your eating patterns is not that hard as long as you are patient and take a healthy approach. And now you have 6 key things that will make the change that much easier!

Don't get discouraged losing arm fat

Finally, I would like to mention that you shouldn't get discouraged if you stray from your diet. You see, it is impossible to eat perfectly all the time. Even the best dieters cheat. But the main difference is that they get back on track much faster than the average person. - 34208
