To start feeling the results, give it two weeks. And to start seeing results, give it four weeks. Trust the process. I know how hard it can be to maintain when you don’t see any change. It can feel like you’re putting all this hard work in for nothing!

So it’s not true. When you combine eating healthy meals and exercising, you’ll see results. It is the only tried and true method to lose weight.

The exercises below focus on your upper body. So biceps, triceps, shoulders and chest. All the important areas to focus on to get rid of flabby arms.

10 MINUTE WORKOUT FOR SEXY, TONED ARMS

I recommend starting with light weights and working your way up as you get stronger. Just 3, 5, or 8 pound dumbbells are fine. This is the set of weights that I recommend.

This is what it will be like to do this training. It’s only 10 minutes, so you have to push yourself. I recommend using a free interval timer app on your phone so you don’t have to keep looking down to reset the timer. Here is the one I use on my iPhone.. Just select “intervals”, then the + button, round timer, enter 10 rounds and press start when ready. You can even enter 5-10 second rests between sets in the app.

We’re going to do each workout below for 50 seconds each and take a 10 second break in between. That’s all. Super simple. But you have to press since we are taking these little breaks!

I recommend doing this workout 2-3 times a week. Alright, let’s work on getting those toned and sexy arms!

*Tip: You can also do mini-workouts throughout the day using these exercises. Or combine them with other 10-minute workouts to tone your entire body.
