There are lots of women who have it all wrong when it comes to nutrition for getting toned arms. Maybe you are one of them
If so, it’s not your fault. The media combined with savvy marketers have created a whirlwind of confusion surrounding proper nutrition for arm fat loss.
I used to be lost among all the confusion.
Luckily for you, I’ve cleared up the confusion though years of research and trial and error.
So without further ado, here are 4 flabby arm pitfalls to avoid:
1. Having too much protein. Once you have more than 30% of your calories as protein, the negatives outweigh the positives. And if you take your protein intake to an extreme, your energy levels will plummet and you’ll lose your ability to recover from exercise.
2. Viewing whole grains as healthy. Whole grains are definitely better than Twinkies, but they’re not the holy grail of arm fat loss. If you lead a highly sedentary lifestyle, whole grains should NOT be a big part of your diet.
3. Assuming supplementation is fine. I have some shocking news: supplements are not regulated in the U.S. There could be anything in that bottle. Just because there is some certification on the label doesn’t mean it’s healthy.
4. Letting more than 5 hours go by between feedings. For maximum arm toning you want to eat every 3 hours. And to prevent any negatives make sure you never let more than 5 hours go by between meals. Why? Because your metabolism will sink.
Your quest to get toned arms should be as short as possible. The longer you have to plug away the higher the chances of abandonment. And if you avoid the above mistakes, you can save yourself a lot of time and headache. After all, getting sexy arms should be relatively fun, not a pain in the butt. Good luck!
