Arm workouts for women just got a lot more effective thanks to celebrity fitness guru David Kirsch
First, get rid of your excuses
Before you start busting your booty to get toned, sexy arms, let's start by busting some common muscle myths.Myth: If I workout my arms, they will get too bulky.
This is a common excuse women make, says Kirsch. Women are worried if they pump iron, they will come out looking "bulky and unfeminine," he says. Not true. Kirsch explains that the "the female body is not made to bulk. Unless you're genetically unique, you don't have the testosterone for Rocky Balboa biceps."
Myth: If I stop the training, my new muscles will turn to fat.
So false. "If you stop training, your body may get fat, but it won't be because you ever had muscles," says Kirsch.
