We are all, to one extent or another, fighting the negative aspects of aging. Surely it can be said, that with age comes wisdom…as well as the comfort of emotional perspective; we grow better able to allow ourselves to “sweat [less] of the small stuff”. Although, it is a certainty that gravity pulls everything down as we age, being flabby and fat is something that we can do something about! It is not just our outer appearance that is on the line, but having good muscle tone is essential to our bone health and strong metabolism.
One of the parts of our bodies that begin to show aging, that make many women feel self-conscious, is our upper arms. Even if we are at an ideal body weight, laxity of the upper arm skin is a struggle many of us can identify with. While our skin tone may never be what it was when we were younger, we can, and should stay on top of maintaining muscle tone of our upper arms.
Doing a few minutes of lifting free weights to isolate the muscles in the upper arms, in order to increase lean muscle mass, will not only result in more attractive arms, but will do much to fight the slower metabolism that leads to overall weight gain as we age. Building lean muscle mass is the key to healthy aging!
The following video, presented by Kelsey Lee, illustrates the XHIT DAILY ideal moves for fighting the flab of the dreaded “jiggly arm”, in an easy-to-follow demonstration. It is key to do these movements with the correct form, in order to avoid injury and achieve the best results. The following repetitions can be divided in half so that you can do 6 minutes of 6 of these moves on one day, and the other 6 on the alternate day. In fact this is the best way to start reaching your goal, so that the different muscle groups have a 24-hour resting period! The 12 moves, of which you will do ONLY 6 DAILY, are in the VIDEO you are about to watch.
Don’t be overwhelmed; while no one loves exercise you will soon come to realize that 6 minutes out of each day to do half of these moves, will soon be something that you actually look forward to because results will be apparent within only a couple of weeks. You can cruise through the video to see what each move requires, get a couple of light 3-5 pound weights, and be on the road to LOSING THAT FLAB, INCREASING YOUR METABOLISM and INCREASING YOUR BONE DENSITY AND HEALTH!!
