Broadening your knowledge on exercise science is a great way to win the war on flabby arms. After all, even though this is not a requirement, knowing more will prevent you from falling prey to fly-by-night programs.

You may run into some stumbling blocks, however. One stumbling block will be all the new vocabulary you will encounter. After all, as knowledge becomes more deep so does the vocabulary to describe said knowledge.

Hence, here is a review of exercise phrases for flabby arms:

1. A concentric contraction. Whenever one of your muscles makes one of your bones move it shortens. There are little proteins called myosin and actin which hook onto each other and pull together. When you do a bicep curl, your bicep shortens and forms a bulge, for instance.

2. Negative, eccentric contractions. This portion of the exercise is considered a crowned jewel for many bodybuilders because it causes a lot of muscle damage which translates into a lot of muscle growth. When doing a shoulder press, for instance, slowly bringing the weight back down after pushing it up is the negative or eccentric portion of the movement.

3. An exercise completion. Performing an exercise through completion does not involve simply doing a positive or negative contraction. Instead, it involves doing an exercise though its entire range of motion. In other words, going through the starting portion, middle portion and end portion.

4. A repetition. This is the singular completion of an exercise. You can view it as one unit of exercise. Thus, one set of 12 repetitions would involve doing an exercise 12 times.

5. An exercise set. A set is simply a group of repetitions to be performed in sequence. Once you dive into some more advanced texts, you will encounter advanced terminology such as super sets. A super set is the completion of one exercise set right after another without any rest in between.

Now my personal recommendation is to broaden your knowledge on flabby arms and exercise science as much as possible within your own limits. In other words, do NOT try to learn everything in one shot. Any time you acquire a new skill or new knowledge it takes some time before you can internalize the new information.
