Weight size for girls in order to have slim, toned arms?
I’ve already tried to google it, and I wasn’t able to find a good answer. I found articles, but they all have something different written in them.
So, my question is this: What kind of weights should women use? I’ve tried using 3-5lb weights and doing 15-25 reps, and it didn’t really seem to do much. I could be that I needed to use 8-10lbs and do more reps and sets, but I have yet to try that. At the moment, I’m trying to work with heavier weights, meaning 15-20lbs. I still try to do 15-20 reps (I usually get close to failure at 17 or 18, but I try to keep pushing). I want to make my arms look lean, and the less “big” muscle I gain, the better. I understand that my arms will probably look a bit bigger, but I’m trying to avoid man-arms.
So, what would work better as a long-term workout (I’ll switch things up to prevent plateaus, but I mean in general). 15-20lbs weights for 15-25 reps, about 2-3 sets of each, or weights under 10lbs with a high number of reps? I know that using heavy weights for a few workouts won’t build huge arms, I’ve read enough articles to know that, but I’m afraid that working with heavy weights for years will make me bulk up. So, are lighter weights better in the long run? Or is anything under 20lbs ok for girls as long as I do a high number of reps? Also, cardio is incorporated into the workout, so that goes without saying for me :)
Background info is: I’m 5’4″, 17 years old, and have an average figure. My metabolic rate is decent. It’s not super fast, but it’s not slow either. I also run whenever I get the chance (Lately I haven’t had a set schedule but I’m trying to get back into one), and once the snow melts and it gets warmer, I’ll be biking and swimming. I try to balance my cardio workouts with weight work.
Also, I know I asked for a long-term answer, but is there a quick weight loss solution as well? I have prom in 3 months (I like to plan ahead), and since I don’t plan to live off of lettuce a week before prom to fight into my dress, I want to get started now. So, for faster results, would using heavier weights do the trick, and then switching to lighter weights after prom is over? Or just sticking to a long-term plan through prom, and hoping that it shows some results by then? And of course, clean diet is essential :)
Thanks in advance :)
Wow lots of questions. Let me begin by saying that how your arms respond to doing heavy curls depends largely on your genetics. Look at your parents, brothers, sisters, and other relatives. Are any of them muscular? If you have the “right” genes, you will definitely gain muscle size if you continue to use heavy weights. If you are concerned about getting too big, lighten up.
If you are doing 20 reps with 20 lb dumbbells, your arms are quite strong already! Congratulations. Since you are only 17, I would recommend that you keep working with the heavier weights. When you can do 3 sets with 20 lbs, evaluate how your arms look. If you are happy with their size and shape, you can maintain it by dropping down to 10 lbs and doing lots of reps, 25-50 (should be no problem if you are as strong as you say). If you want to get bigger or measurably stronger, add 5 lbs.
I must also say that there are no such thing as “manly” arms. The muscles of the human body are beautiful when properly developed, whether on a man or a woman. A woman is not going to get huge biceps like Arnold without spending years in the gym, proper genetics, and to get really big, steroids. So you don’t have to worry about that.
Hope this helps.
What’s with the Bathing Suit body obsession?
As summertime is approaching, almost every other commercial is pushing weight loss “miracle solutions” for women to get fit to wear their swim suits.
I, for one, just had a baby and will wear my tummy stretch marks with pride in my totally cute bikini that shows off ALL of my physical imperfections.
Why do we care so much about how we look in bathing suits?
I dont think it is so much ourselves caring what we look like in a swimsuit, but more so what others will think about how we look in a swimsuit. In our western society, it is considered unacceptable, unattractive, gross, disgusting, etc. to see someone that isnt physically “perfect” wearing a swimsuit, and let’s face it, some people are just rude.
Frankly, I dont care what I look like in a bathing suit, or what other people look like in theirs either. However I have witnessed people being outright cruel to others on the beach, solely based on the others physique. People just need to get over it. I know its cliche, but life is waaay to short to put unnecessary limitations and restrictions on oneself and others based on physical appearance.
I’m looking for people who have actually USED the SlimQuick diet pills specially designed for women.?
FIRST-If you have not used the pills and have just come here to tell me to get off my lazy butt and exercise-please don’t waste your time or mine. I wish ONLY to speak to people who have been on the pills.
My question-Do these pills work? If I follow the instructions that come with the pills, including how to take them, what types of food to eat, and the exercise suggestions, how effective are they? I have tried EVERYTHING-SlimFast, Ectrislim, Hydroxycut, a thousand other brand names, the South Beach Diet, The Weight Loss Solution, my own diets of nothing but fruits and vegetables, excessive working out, and many other approaches. I can’t deal with it anymore. I would love to know if these pills actually work, or if I shouldn’t waste my time.
I eat very small, controlled portions. Not small enough that I’m starving, but small enough that I’m not feeling like I just ate Thanksgiving dinner. I eat tons of vegetables because I actually like them, and I eat a limited number of carbs. I drink pop VERY sparingly. My usual beverages are water and milk. I don’t eat all that much candy-my only indulgence is chewing gum.
Okay, I actually used these pills. I’m over weight and I was looking for something to help me curb my appetite and boost my energy. I read the testimonials and everyone seemed to have positive results. Me on the other hand, I had different reviews. It did help me curb my appetite (at times) and the energy boost was very temporary. It comes with a meal plan and exercise guide. I chose not to follow it because they both seemed very restrictive. To me if you follow the meal plan and how often you take the pills it should work. Hey it was good at giving lazy ole me an energy boost and I’m greedy, and at times I had to remind myself to eat. To each it’s own but I would suggest it to people to try.
has anyone tried slimquick?
im on slim quick just want to know if it is the best weight loss solution for a woman,since its designed for women
Hi I used it early last year, it was ok but not great, I did lose a few pounds but not enought for the amount of time I used it, I was so hungry and tired on it too. A friend suggested I try herbalife and so I switched and the results have been great. if you want to lose weight, improve your health generally, and have more energy then getting some nutritional help is vital. Once your body starts to absorb the right nutrients and vitamins and protein then you’ll be amazed how quickly you will feel the difference, usually within the first 48 hours if you get the right supplements and help. I had no energy and felt just generally rotten all round so I sought the advice of a nutritional coach (whose advice was FREE) and got myself some great products, I even got free samples before I got started so I could see just how good they were!! There is a website called myhealthabc.com If go on there and fill out the details page you will get a call with no pressure about what you need. There is a mall area as well that’s got some great info and its all set out with easy to follow headings so you can find what you want. It’s so easy and the stuff they have is excellent. I have been using their products for over two years and I feel great. I lost 70 pounds in less than seven months!! My sister lost 60 pounds in five months.
I’ve decided to start an extreme weight loss program…how does my plan sound?
I’m 6’3″, around 235 (I’ll know for sure tomorrow at the gym). I’m not stuck on numbers, but I’m guessing I’ll need to lose at least 75 lbs before I’m satisfied. My main goals are to lose my broad shoulders and chest. I know that some guys with they were bigger, but that means nothing to me. I really don’t care what other people find attractive, and I’m not interested in any of the women who want some big strong man to protect them.
As my pic will demonstrate, I have a very long way to go. As far as diet is concerned, my plan is to stick to low-carb, low-fat, and not to eat until one hour after my stomach starts to rumble. I find a lot of times I eat just as an excuse – because I’m bored or because it’s a certain time of day or because I feel like it – and I’m interested to see how much I would eat per day if I only ate when I was really, truly hungry.
I don’t have some strict timeline to lose this much weight…I’m presuming it will take me till summer to lose it all. As for exercise, I’m going to stick to only cardio. I’m asking for new running shoes for Christmas since the cheap ones I bought give me blisters if I run too much, so until then, it will be 20 min on the treadmill, 20 on the Stairmaster, and 20 on the elliptical, seven days a week.

Oh, postscript: do NOT post ads for Acai berry, Wu-Yi tea, or any other fad diet or magic cure. This site is rife with you people and trust me, whatever solution I end up going with is not going to include investing in some dumb miracle cure. I have worked in the corporate offices of an Herbalife-style fad diet company, so I’m well aware of how they prey on insecure and desperate people. Thanks.
Simeon – Thanks…while I did warn people against posting links, I do check out each one to make sure I don’t report anyone simply for directing me to diet info.
Mitch – Thanks…however, I don’t want to look muscular…that’s why I chose to lose so much weight.
Just in case anyone says this….I tried personal trainers. i’m in no position to hire one anyway (and I don’t need one), but they just told me I was crazy to want to lose so much weight and to “take advantage” of my size….in other words, they misunderstood me. I know I’m not obese (moderately overweight at best), but I want to appear smaller. My problem is not my stomach, but my upper body…broad shoulders and chest.
Okay, maybe “extreme weight loss” was a bad term to use. I’m not saying “I need to lose seven pounds a week” or “I need to lose 40 lbs by New Year’s” or anything like that. I meant “extreme” as in “losing a lot of weight”, not “losing a lot of weight in an unrealistic time span.”
PLEASE read my full question. I don’t think I’m hugely obese. As nice as it is for people to say, I don’t care if others think it’s great for a guy to have broad shoulders and a big chest….I hate it and that’s why I want to lose an inordinate amount of weight.
I’m aware of the effect of multiple meals on metabolism, and if I were simply trying to get in shape, that’s what I would be doing. However, my goal is to get as thin as I can, not to build muscle or simply get in shape.
extreme dieting does not work. You need to have medical clearance. Meet with a registered dietician. If you joing a gym, you usually get a trainer to set up a program for you included in the membership. Most HMO these days in the US offer money towards gym memberships and weight loss programs.
Your bmi is 29.4. this is considered overweight. 30 is considered obese.
Avoid fad diets, diet pills. It is a long hard battle. On average you want to lose 1 pound a week. It is a lifestyle change if you want to keep the weight off. You need to combine cardio, weights, stretching and healthy eating.There is no quick fix. You did not gain the weight overnight and you will not loose it overnight.
Take it from someone who has been there.
