The Flabby Arms!!
Flabby arms may be considered as a disgrace by many of the young ladies. Having flabby arms means you cannot flaunt your arms in the summer-wear, and be comfortable. For women who have abnormally jiggly arms, the attention is pulled onto the arm, disregarding our aspects.
The causes of the jiggly arms are mostly, inherited i.e., the fault in your DNA patterns being passed on from generations. This is a lesser explored reason of flabby arms, but a vital one! Apart from the genes, it is because of the diet and lifestyle. All thanks to the fast-food culture, this promotes cheese, white flour, refined sugar and preservatives, having very meager or none nutrients at all, so these foods are direct calories and no good to the body building process, but only pumping up the fat.
Certain evitable causes, playing important roles are: Having high calorie diet, having low levels of testosterone and no weight-loss regime. A high calorie diet is the one which may sum up to anywhere close to 3500 kilocalories per day, about 800-1000 kilocalories over the required amounts, all these excess calories are converted into fat and stacked up, in various parts such as thighs, hips, lower abdomen and arms.
Testosterone, essentially a male hormone; but it is also found in women at a baseline level. The testosterone plays a vital role in how our bodies balance glucose, insulin, and fat metabolism, thus affecting the insulin sensitivity and also the patterns of fat accumulation. Unless we enroll ourselves for a rigorous weight loss regime, which aims at shedding the overall weight rather than just concentrating the arms, it hard to get rid of the flabby arms.
