What kind of exercises do you do for flabby batwing arms??



Recommended Posts

I was just wondering what everyone is doing to get rid of the loose flabby skin under their arms? My worst area of loose skin is under my arms they can flap in the wind lol! I knew to expect that and I know it probably wont all go away, but I would like to TRY to tone up the muscle underneath it some to see if it will help, anybody have any advice or excercises for me on how to work out that area? I've always said, when if I do decide plastic surgery it will sure be my arms first, how I long to wear a sleeveless shirt!

Mine are really bad too. I am working to tone them up.

Walking to the surgeon's office to get it done. That's what I'm going to have to end up doing. My arms are SO out of proportion that its just wrong. I'm checking out that tricep website that Jodi suggested!

This question made me laugh out loud, because BOY can I relate! I started working with a trainer at the gym about eight months ago and we weight train together about two times a week. The difference in my arms is unbelievable. I still feel somewhat self-conscious about my upper arms, but not so much that I don't wear tank tops now! I noticed a huge difference in how I used to have all this flab that hung down by my elbow. (Yuck.) It's almost entirely gone now. Improving the muscle tone so much in my arms has made a huge difference in my skin tone. I recommend working with a trainer if you can, at least long enough to learn the exercises that will most benefit you.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
