Something new I going to tryout... I just installed a app on my phone which is a stop watch. I programmed it to go off every 30 minutes. Once this stop watch goes off I am going to do 40 arm lifts; lifting my arm over my head... hopefully this would help me to lose some of my upper arm fat and toning my upper back at the same time. If I start at 8:00am - 8:00 pm I should have done 960 arm lifts...

Have anyone tried something like this before ? And if so did it help? Are do anyone have any suggestion?

I have yet to be sleeved yet trying to tone up and continue developing lean muscle????

Are you doing them with weights?

I have added muscle to my arms with this routine. I started with 5 lb weights, moved to 10, I am about to move up again.

No I wasn't planning on using weight, but I do need some resistance. Yeah I may add some weight to help with the toning... Thanks for the video!

That app sounds like a good idea. It'll keep you on a routine. Good old-fashioned push ups worked for me in the past. I started by doing them against a wall because I wasn't strong enough to do them on the ground. Then after a couple of weeks I graduated to "girl push-ups", then regular ones (which were still super hard, so I mostly the girly ones). You can switch up th position of your arms to target different areas.
