Why is fat arm freedom so elusive? It seems as though many women are utterly lost when it comes to getting sexy arms.
How can this happen? Well, I believe the majority of confusion can be traced back to extreme marketing tactics. To complicate things further, sometimes the research isn’t even clear!
Now if the gurus have a tough time detangling the research, how is the average women supposed to? Luckily, I have already done this for you.
So without further ado, here are 4 fat arm pitfalls exposed:
1. Thinking supplementation trumps whole food. Ignore the labels with pictures of women who lost 40lbs of fat overnight. The truth is that whole foods interact with each other in ways that supplements could never mimic. Nature cannot be reproduced in a pill.
2. Fiber supplementation. Unfortunately, this ever popular supplement has been shown to increase colon cancer rates. The good news is that you probably eat so many vegetables that fiber supplementation is a moot point. Right?
3. Equating thinness with health. Being thin is no guarantee of having toned arms. And being thin is no guarantee of being healthy. I’ve seen thin women with flabby arms and I’ve seen thin women undergo triple bypass surgeries because their diets are so poor.
4. Thinking carbohydrates are the only food that can alter insulin. Excessive animal saturated fat intake and excessive protein intakes can also alter levels of insulin in your body. So don’t think that all you have to do is stay away from the white bread and pasta
Warning: now you know 4 things to avoid during your quest to get toned arms. Knowing what NOT to do is just as important as knowing what to do. I know there is a lot of information out there. The key is to look past all the marketing hype and stick to the facts. And don’t forget to take action! Without action, information is useless. Good luck!
