No Big Secret
The Key to Fixing that Underarm Dilemma Lies with Triceps Training.
Those bags of sag that droop loosely from your arms, the ones that have you covering up like a White House scandal, you can't seem to rid yourself of them. Believe it or not, there's something hiding underneath those unwanted jelly rolls. They're called triceps.
I know, ladies. They may look like
shopping bags but these babies are hardly filled with
goodies. The jiggle like jello and bounce like basketballs.
They constantly remind you that they're there, shaking
at your sides with every move you make and every step
you take.
The temperature is a smoldering 110
but you insist on wearing long-sleeve shirts anyway
in an attempt to seclude them in public.
It's that dreaded underarm dilemma.
This one, unfortunately, can't be
cured from a few swipes of Secret antiperspirant.
Believe it or not, there's something
hiding underneath those unwanted jelly rolls. They're
called triceps and with a little bit of work, you can
be tri-umphant in your quest to lure them out.
Tricep Exercise
So try these exercises to
make your triceps so they're not so flabby and not so
shabby:
DUMBBELL KICKBACKS:
Try these standing. Place your arm on your knee at a
slightly bent over posture. With your free hand, take
the dumbbell (a manageable weight) and hold it to the
side of your hip, perhaps a little low (your upper thigh).
Your elbow should be bent and in alignment with your
body. Then, slowly raise your arm behind you and in
an upward motion. As you do this, your elbow and arm
straighten out. Raise your arm until it is parallel
to the floor and your arm is completely straight. Squeeze
your triceps during the contraction for a second or
two, then slowly bring the weight back down to your
side. Repeat the motion for 3 sets of 10-12 reps on
each arm.
ONE-ARM CABLE EXTENSIONS:
Hook a square-shaped handle up to the top pulley of
the cable machine. Make sure you are facing away from
the cable, grasping the handle with one hand so that
your hand is facing away from your torso. Your elbow
is bent at a 90-degree angle so that your upper arm
and lower arm form a perfect right angle. Slowly bring
the weight forward in a downward motion, extending the
arm and straightening out the elbow. Squeeze tight before
allowing the weight to reverse the motion. Let your
upper arm pull backward, back to the 90-angle that you
started with, as you squeeze during the negative. Once
your back at the right angle, repeat the motion. Do
3 sets of 12 reps.
PRESSDOWNS: Clasp
a small straight bar to the upper portion of the cable
machine. Placing both hands on the top of the bar, lock
your elbows into your sides at a 90-degree angle. Slowly
extend your arms downward, squeezing as the bar is pulled
down to your waist. Let the contraction last for a 2-count
before slowly letting the weight pull your hands halfway
back toward your chest. Once the arms form a 90-degree
angle, repeat the motion. For great toning, try 3-4
sets of 14-18 repetitions at a tolerable weight.
Of course, triceps are like any other
body part that you train. All the kickbacks, pressdowns,
and extensions in the world won't carve them into the
shape you desire, not without the proper exercise and
diet o supplement them.
