Exercises for the armsare the most neglected exercises among women. For hours we can strengthen the thighs, exercise the stomach and buttocks. The fact that we train our hands so rarely stems from the misconception that exercises to strengthen the arms will build them too much, and the feminine, delicate silhouette will turn into a masculine and broad-shouldered figure. Nothing could be more wrong!
Exercises for arms - exercises for triceps
Exercise to strengthen your armswill prevent fat and cellulite from accumulating in your arms, but will not change your body proportions.
What irritates most women about the appearance of their hands is the sagging skin of the back of the arms, or neglected triceps. While the biceps are exercised daily by carrying things up the stairs and picking up various items, these activities hardly involve the opposite muscles - the triceps. And the triceps muscle of the arm, i.e. the one located at the back of the arm, is its largest muscle (it accounts for as much as 60% of the arm muscle mass). Therefore, some time and effort should be spent on shaping it.
Here are the exercises you should do to strengthen your triceps:
- press a dumbbell with one hand from behind the neck
- backward kick with forearms straightening in torso drop with dumbbells
- backrest support on the bench with bent legs at the knees
- "crane" on one leg with forearm extensions with dumbbells
- bending arms lying on a bench with dumbbells
