Are you dying to know how to get rid of flabby arms and look more tone? One of the biggest myths is that you can lose fat in an area of the body by strength training or exercising that specific body part. It has not been proven possible that you can lose fat from a specific area. We cannot dictate where our bodies will decide to oxidize fat, nor can we change fat into muscle. Doing tricep dips will not decrease the fat people have on the backs of their arms any more than doing crunches will reduce the fat people have on their stomachs.

The best way to get rid of excess fat is to combine a healthy diet and exercise regularly. Resistance training will increase muscle mass, and it forces fat to divide into the broader surface area. That makes you look more fit.
