How to Lose Fat on the Arms Fast By Exercise
Arm fat can be frustrating as it can make sleeveless shirts and dresses look less appealing. If you want to lose, or even just reduce this fat, you need to follow a two-pronged approach. First, and most importantly, you need to reduce fat all over your body. You cannot focus on one spot when it comes to fat reduction. So, if you want to lose arm fat, you also need to lose fat on your stomach, legs, butt and hips.
You also need to build the muscle underneath the fat to make it more toned and less flabby. While important, though, this is not as important as fat loss.

Perform regular cardiovascular interval training. This is exercise where, rather than work hard for a short time or moderately for a long time, you divide your workout into intervals. So, if you are on a rowing machine, you might go as hard as you can for one minute, then easier for two minutes, and so on until you've done ten hard "sets." This gives your body the best of both worlds -- the benefits of a hard exercise combined with the benefits of a long exercise.

Reduce your portion sizes. Get smaller plates, and always leave some food on them. Fat loss is just as much about calorie reduction as it is about calorie burning.
