 Aerobic exercise is the answer
by: Tom and Shaye

Hi Pinky,

Unfortunately you can't burn fat from a specific area, such as your arms. If you want to get rid of the fat on your arms you will need to begin doing some aerobic exercise. This will burn off fat from all over your body. Try doing some running, swimming, skipping or some other aerobic sport. You can read more about aerobic exercise here.

If you do arm exercises, keep away from heavy weights. Instead do lots of repetitions of low weights. For example do 3 sets of 15 repetitions using a low weight. This will have the effect of keeping your arms strong without bulking them up.

Good luck
Tom and Shaye
