What exercises can I do to get thinner, leaner arms?

Question: When I use barbells they only make my arms look bigger.

Answers:
losing arm fat alone is not possible.
you lose fat on your whole body at once by doing cardio
And you lose it from top to bottom so it starts in your face.
that is elevating your heart rate and keeping it there for at least 30 mins per day, at least 3 times per week.
get a heart monitor, get your heart rate to: (220-your age)x .60
at least.

secondly you can stop your body from making fat by cutting out sugar, alcohol, white bread, white potatoes, and anything with a glycemic index above 55.

You acn do an exercise called wind mills. If you have fat skin hanging from your arms, you will have to have that surgically removed. If it is not to that point, then I would suggest these excercises.

Lift weights, do push ups, stand ups, and pull ups, and you must do things using your arms, on a daily basis.

Regular exercise, jogging, treadmill, walking, You can't lose weight in a specific place. You have to lose it all over with total body exercise. When you lose weight in other places it will leave your arms as well. Good Luck Well it sucks because you really can't loss weight in certain areas.you have to do cardio to burn fat all around. But you can weight training focusing on your upper body more.

For example.exercise that focus on your triceps.if you are talking about the fat on the under arm or focus on your biceps for the fat on the top on your arm.

Don't worry about building too much muscle..remember more reps with less weight..Good Luck!
