When it comes to weight gain, it is common to gain excess weight in different parts of the body. Some people gain weight around thighs, hips, abdomen and others around arms. Flabby arms or bat wings can make you conscious and lead to low self-esteem. If you too want to get rid of flabby arms that are stopping you from wearing your favourite sleeveless dress, you’ve come to the right place. Today, we are sharing with you 6 exercises to lose weight from the arms.
