Tips to lose arm fat for a leaner body.
Lose fat all over. Although spot-based 

00:00:07.331 --> 00:00:11.376 
fat loss is popular, most studies show
that it is ineffective. One small 

00:00:11.376 --> 00:00:15.110 
12-week study found that resistance
training that focused on one leg was 

00:00:15.110 --> 00:00:19.778 
effective in reducing overall body fat
but did not reduce body fat in the leg 

00:00:19.778 --> 00:00:23.823 
being trained. It is best to focus on
overall weight loss and total-body 

00:00:23.823 --> 00:00:28.490 
exercises such as cardio will have a
more even fat loss effect. Eat plenty of 

00:00:28.490 --> 00:00:31.913 
fiber. Fiber moves slowly through your
digestive system, which increases the 

00:00:31.913 --> 00:00:35.958 
time it takes to thicken your stomach
and helps you feel full longer. 

00:00:35.958 --> 00:00:40.314 
According to a study in 252 women, each
gram of fiber consumed was associated 

00:00:40.314 --> 00:00:45.293 
with a 0.25% reduction in body fat and
0.25 kg (1.6 pounds) of body weight loss 

00:00:45.293 --> 00:00:49.338 
over 20 months. Switch to whole grains
While eating whole grains has been 

00:00:49.338 --> 00:00:53.072 
linked to reduced weight and body fat,
eating more refined carbohydrates has 

00:00:53.072 --> 00:00:56.184 
been linked to increased body fat.
Examples of refined carbohydrates 

00:00:56.184 --> 00:00:59.295 
include pasta, white bread, breakfast
cereals, and other packaged foods.
