Figuring out how to tone up arms can be hard with all the free and subpar information out there. In fact, I believe that many women are utterly lost when it comes to finding the right approach.

I know this is the case because of all the questions I receive on a daily basis.

Now before you kick yourself in the butt, understand that it’s not all your fault. You see, clever marketing and the endless promotion of bogus products has created a surplus of faulty information.

Thus, here is some misinformation to avoid when learning how to tone up your arms:

1. You should exercise every single day. Do this and your body will not recover properly. The end result? Complete burn out of the mind and body. You have to rest, especially if you’re lifting weights.

2. Both arms should have equal strength. I’ve never worked with a client who had equal amounts of strength in both arms. Over time, however, the difference will go away. Do not assume that having a stronger arm means something is wrong with you!

3. I should be able to do 15 repetitions for every set in very workout. This will surely lead to arm toning failure! There are no cookie cutter rules here. In fact, you should strive to experiment with a wide variety of repetitions for maximum effect.

4. Getting tired during exercise is an indication of overtraining. Do not worry about getting tired when you are pushing yourself. This is normal and beneficial. Beneficial because the more you push yourself the more hormones your body will secrete.

5. Being sore for days after is bad. Not really. It’s actually an indication that you had a great workout. Strive to maintain this level of intensity. Over time, levels of soreness will actually decrease.

Figuring out how to tone up arms does not have to be difficult. In fact, if you stay away from all the misinformation out there, it’s much easier than you think. And the key here is to apply information immediately. Do not wait until tomorrow!
