Ht. 5'6, Wt. 180 - Hey, y'all! I just figured out how to work on those fatty bits under the arms. I hate them! What you do is you take some hand weights (I use three-pound ones), and you put your arms by your sides. Then you lift them straight up so you make a T with your body. Then, move your arms out in front of you at the same level. Then, keeping them relatively straight, lift them up over your head. Then put them back to in front of you, then back out to the T position thing, then put them down by your sides. So basically once you get them over your head, reverse the motion and do the opposite of what you did. If that is to complicated, just do the first parts: make a T, put them in front of you, go back to the T, then put them down. Or you could even just make the T and put them down again. Whatever you do, make sure you do at least ten repetitions, depending on the difficulty. Also, remember that the slower you go, the harder it is, but the better the workout is that you get! Added tip: Has anyone heard of the "horse position"? It's a martial art thing. You spread your legs out and kind of half squat so your knees are right above your ankles. don't go farther. I like to get into the position while I do weightlifting with my arms so I get a bun and thight workout as well. It is hard, but it takes practice. Good luck!
