4 Things To Avoid When Trying To Tone Up Your Arms

By Katherine Crawford M.S.

All the experts out here have a different opinion on how to tone arms. It seems as though every guru has found a different approach. Now a lot of said approaches are based on gibberish and are the product of pure marketing.

Unfortunately, even the most well respected experts can give subpar advice. How could this happen? Because scientific studies are never clear cut.

What is the source? Research studies. You might think that research is like math, one plus one equals two. Unfortunately, research is almost never clear cut like this. It's usually open to interpretation.

So today I plan on clearing up some of the confusion. Here are 4 things to avoid when trying to tone up your arms:

1. Overdoing the fish oil intake. Have more than 3 gr. of fish oil a day and you run the risk of developing atherosclerosis. Why? Because the excess amount of omega-3 fat can oxidize.

2. Not keeping the peanut butter cool. A mold called aspergillus can grow on nuts and legumes if they are kept in warm and humid environments. So make sure you store ALL your nuts and nut butters in the fridge. Although aspergillus poisoning may not be as common as the flu, a single case of it will set your toned arms mission many steps back.

3. Having trans fat. No amount is healthy, seriously. As proven by Harvard researchers, trans fat kill. And they will do no good for your arms. In fact, they will increase your overall body fat, including arm fat.

4. Staying away from plant sources of saturated fat. Animal fat is what does harm. But plant fat can do a body good. Coconut is a great example of a saturated plant fat that is very healthy for the female body.

As science constantly evolves, recommendations will change. However, if you really want to tone arms, you have to keep on moving forward despite the changes. After all, the number one thing that will determine your success is an ability to keep on going despite the small stuff. - 17274
