Most ladies know that their arms require  extra exercise to keep their arms toned and buff. Get rid of the dingle dangle already! These four exercises will easily and effectively tone your biceps and triceps. This challenge has exactly what you need  to target the flab.
Push Ups

Start in a traditional push up starting position, your feet a couple of inches apart and your arms directly under your shoulders ( if you are a beginner it’s ok to start on your knees until you get stronger). Make sure your body is in a straight line from your head to your knees, don’t sag down or raise your behind in the air. Keep your abs tight and drop your body straight down bending just your arms. Go back to the starting position.



Dips
Place your hands behind you onto a bench. Extend your legs and start bending your elbows. Lower yourself until your arms are at a 90 degree angle and then come back up.

Bicep curls
Keep your upper arms stationary, maintain your elbows close to your body and breathe out as you lift the dumbbells.

Punches
Start in a lunge position while holding a dumbbell in each hand. Hug both dumbbells into your chest with your palms facing inward. From here, extend your left arm in front of you in a punching motion and then bring it back in toward your body. Next, extend your right arm in front of you in a punching motion and then bring it back in toward your body.

How much exercise is enough to lose weight?
The best time for training is around 45 to 60 minutes, but this changes from person to person and depending on how much weight you would like to lose.
Whenever you would like to lose weight, shoot for at least 200 minutes (more 3 hours) a week by moderate intensity workout with everything additional consistent. If you burn calories and exercise, you’ll be able to get away with a minimum dose of 150 minutes a week.
Whenever you are a beginner, start with 50 minutes of exercise a week and build to 200 minutes.
