Today, I'm going to show you several different arm exercises that can help you quickly get rid of flabby arms. If you can’t do them all, that’s okay—choose the ones that are right for you! Pick the best exercises for your home arm workout.
As we age, the muscles in our arms start to atrophy along with our fascia. Fascia holds the shape of the arm and is vital for the whole body. Fascia maintains the body’s shape, keeps your muscles in place, and shares some of the force on your body when you exercise. When you stimulate the fascia, you cause collagen synthesis, which is essential as you age.
The arm exercises I’m going to show you focus on strengthening the primary and secondary muscles, associated supporting muscles, and the fascia. This arm workout is safe on the joints, produces significant strength, and can reshape the arms for slim, toned arms.
Most of the exercises I’m going to show you today are isometric exercises. This type of exercise increases tension in the muscle without lengthening or shortening it. Contracting your muscle is referred to as a concentric movement, while the extension is an eccentric movement.
You’ll need a resistance band or isometric band for these arm exercises. Some will be done using a TRX, which works great for an arm workout. Gymnastic rings can also work but are not necessary. If you don’t have any equipment, don’t worry! You can also get slim, toned arms by using your body weight.

0:00.0 | Today I'm excited to show you something really cool to be able to take flabby arms and tone them up. |
0:05.7 | And I'm going to go through about eight or nine different exercises. |
0:08.9 | So some people are not going to be able to do certain exercises. |
0:11.2 | I'm going to start really small and then increase from there. |
0:14.2 | I want you to select ones that make sense to you. |
0:17.1 | When I do my workouts, I'm not very structured. |
0:19.6 | I get bored really easy with exercises. |
0:21.6 | I think it's important to switch it up. I'm going to show you a series of exercises that you can |
0:24.8 | pick or choose which ones that will fit into your routine. As we age, the muscles in our arms |
0:30.3 | start to atrophy, the fascia that surrounds the arm. Fasha is this stuff right here, saran wrap. |
0:39.4 | The tissue that we recently identified as being way more important than what we thought it was, because fasha surrounds our entire body like a |
0:45.1 | wetsuit, but not just the outside. In the different layers of muscles, around the nerves, around the |
0:49.7 | organs. It really gives the shape of the arm and around your whole body. It holds everything together. It also |
0:55.6 | shares some of the forces that you put on your body when you exercise. When you stimulate the fascia, |
1:00.9 | you actually cause collagen synthesis or a rebuilding effect. What we want as we age is to thicken |
1:08.2 | that collagen layer and make it so it can tighten everything up really nicely. |
1:12.6 | In the last video I did on toning the arm, we talked mainly about a stretching technique. |
1:16.6 | Today we're going to focus more on a strengthening technique. |
1:20.6 | And in this video, we're not just going to focus on the primary muscles like the bicep and the triceps. |
1:26.6 | The biceps cause your arm to go this way. |
1:29.7 | The tricep extends your arm that way. We're not just going to focus on those muscles, even though |
1:35.1 | those are the primary movers of the arm. There are a lot of other associated supportive muscles |
