15-Minute Daily Arm Workout To Get Rid Of Flabby Arms

Can we talk about arms for a quick sec? If you think an arm workout requires push-ups, heavy weights, barbells, or pull-ups, you would be wrong. Actually, all you need are a few sets of dumbbells or just a resistance band to work your biceps, triceps, and shoulders in 15 minutes.

Flabby arms look as bad as a jiggly tummy. They make you look older, unfit, and sleeveless clothes are just out of the question! Flabby arms can ruin your entire look even if you have a perfect figure. This can affect your confidence and create a negative body image.

Perform each of the first three moves (with a resistance band or dumbbells) below for 40 seconds before immediately moving to the next one. Once you’ve completed all three exercises, rest for 30 seconds. That’s one lap. Complete three laps before beginning the next part of the routine.

Perform the final two moves back-to-back for the number of reps allotted, then rest for 30 seconds. That’s one lap. Complete as many laps as you can in six minutes.
