Okay, let's face it, we all know about the arm jiggle. Where it came from, we can never pin, but the fact of the matter is that IT'S THERE! I am sure that just like me, you are sick of it! Wish it would just go away! Here are a couple of easy workouts that you can do to help jiggle that arm away!
WITH a Resistance Band...
Stand with your feet shoulder width apart. Wrap part of the resistance band around your right hand to start, and place the other end under both feet to ensure that the band does not come free during your workout. Put your right arm out, as if you were making a "T" with your arm, slightly bending the arm at the elbow. Make sure that the resistance band is tight so that you have some resistance for the exercise. Place your left hand on your hip, and slowly raise your right arm over your head. Bring your arm back to the starting position, and repeat. Continue this exercise for a number of minutes, or a certain number of reps. A great starting place would be 2 minutes, or 25 reps.
When you are done on the right side, move it over to the left side. Be sure to do the same number of reps or minutes on the left side that you did on the right! We don't want uneven arms! :)
WITHOUT a Resistance Band...
Stand with your feet shoulder width apart. Bring both of your arms out to make a "T" with your arms bent slightly at the elbow. Raise your arms above your head, clapping when they meet at the top. Return to starting position and repeat.
Obviously, the exercise works with or without a resistance band. Having a resistance band will add "weight" to the exercise, helping to define those fabulous arms just that much quicker. You can find resistance bands for about $10 or less from Target, Wal-Mart, etc. There's no need to spend more than that. No need for extra things, just the resistance band.
Have fun with this one! We'll put up more exercises on the blog that you can use the resistance band for, so it will definitely be worth the small investment!
GOOD LUCK!
