Some body types can't lose arm fat no matter what
Some body types can't lose arm fat no matter what
If everything else slims down and only the upper arms stay — that isn't willpower. It is a structural characteristic of the body type.
Oestrogen holds on to upper-arm fat
In women, the triceps area at the back of the upper arm is a fat store influenced by oestrogen. Even as the abdomen or thighs reduce with dieting, this area tends to be the last to change. That is a structural characteristic of body type, not a lack of effort.
Upper-body types show more arm resistance
In body types that concentrate fat in the upper body (apple shape), fat at the upper arm and underarm is far more resistant than lower-body fat. Lower-body types, by contrast, tend to lose arm fat more readily. Identifying your own distribution pattern through ultrasound body analysis comes first.
Upper arms need a 360-degree plan
Targeting upper-arm fat accurately means designing the back of the arm, the inner arm and the underarm as one connected 360 degrees. Treating a single area leaves the line unnatural. NB's Arm 360 / U-line planning works three-dimensionally and includes the shoulder line.
