Best Exercises for Flabby Arms

#1 - Bicep Curls
This exercise is by far the most comfortable as well as the safest among the whole lot. All you need to do is to either get yourself a pair of dumbbells or instead go in for 1 gallon of water bottle in each hand. Sit on a comfortable chair or a stool, while you sit straight so that your back does not hunch. Now make sure that your elbows are in contact with the sides of your lower torso. Now pick up one bottle at a time. Breathe in and out with every weightlift. Stop when you feel exhausted and cannot continue with the exercise.

#2 - Single Arm Bicep Curls
Instead of sitting on the chair, you may now stand with one feet resting on the chair. Like how you would on bench press. Keep your back straight while you lean a bit forward. Now pick a dumbbell or a gallon of water bottle. Take one arm at a time and do sets of weightlifting. Lift the bottle until it reaches your shoulder line and back to your normal stance.

#3 - Push Ups
Lie down on your tummy and then pick yourself up in a way that you keep your elbows straight. Do not let your chest and knees touch the floor. You will feel your entire body straining, but the most pressure will be applied onto your arms. Do as many push ups as you can; give each a count of 5 at least.

#4 - The Ax Effect
Imagine you are about to cut a piece of log into two right from the center. Similarly, you may take a heavy dumbbell or a water bottle. Now hold it with both your hands and lift it above your head and then bring it down again. You may also use two lighter dumbbells or water bottles and repeat the same exercise by alternating your arm movements. When one hand comes back down, take the other one up. This exercise may feel funny while performing it, but it shows amazing results. Also make sure that you keep your legs, shoulder length apart and your backbone straight.

#5 - Chair Push Ups
This is one of the simplest arm exercises to practice at home. Take just about any chair in your house as long as it is sturdy. Now rest your palms on the edges of the seat and lean your body forward, while your legs are resting in an incline behind you. Make sure that your feet are placed together. Now begin your push ups while making ensuring that you do not let your chest touch the chair. Keep your chin up at all times and keep your back straight.

#6 - Seated Push Ups
A very simple and effective exercise. You may use a low raised book shelf or even your bed. Now sit on your bed and then gradually bring your body down while you hold on to the sides of your bed. During this exercise your feet must be sprawled in front of you while they are set a bit apart. Do not let your buttocks touch the floor. You can even place a pillow underneath so that you know when to raise yourself up again. You may even use two sturdy chairs as well.

#7 - Elevated Push Ups
Wear shoes for these exercises. Take a normal bench and hook your feet onto the sides of the bench, while you face downwards to the floor. Now push yourself up with your arms, until you're stretched parallel to the floor. Repeat this exercise as many times as possible.

The above mentioned exercises are simple as well as extremely effective. Though, make sure that you perform them correctly and not injure yourself. Also remember to warm up properly before you begin any form of exercise. Doing a few stretches always works wonders, and then you may do some skipping.
