Lies About How To Lose Arm Fat

By Katherine Crawford M.S.

It seems as though there are a million ways to lose arm fat. And some ways are reasonable, while others are just plain snake oil.

Now because there is a lot of money to be made selling arm fat solutions, the good science can sometimes be taken for marketing hype, vice versa. So how do you separate fact from fiction?

Well, unless you have a PhD in exercise science, this can become quite a challenge-nearly impossible.

So here are some arm fat loss myths revealed to get you on the right track:

1. Formulas are the end all be all. Some formulas are more accurate than others. And although they provide a basic starting point for how many calories you should be eating, do NOT assume their values are accurate. In some cases, they will be very off target.

2. If it doesn't hurt, it's not working. Many fitness gurus claim that arm fat loss has be painful. Yet I disagree. I believe that if nutrition and exercise are implemented the right way, you can actually increase energy levels while restricting calories. The key here is to have lots of nutrients and lots of resistance training.

3. You must eat like a bird for the rest of your life. Your body should change a lot during your arm fat loss journey. And these changes will manipulate the way your body deals with food. In most cases, you can eat a little more than before without the risk of arm fat rebound. The key here is to make sure that a solid resistance training program has been the bedrock of your approach.

4. Hunger pangs are a given. This statement only holds true if you go overboard with caloric restriction. Otherwise, there are many ways to virtually eliminate hunger pangs and cravings. One approach is to use herbal teas. Yerba mate is the most powerful one and can completely knock out cravings, no joke! Sugar substitutes are yet another tool for cancelling out that sweet tooth craving.

There is an excess of information out there on how to lose arm fat. And if something sounds too good to be true, then it probably is! So use some common sense when analyzing information and try to stay away from outdated advice! - 17273
