Figuring out how to tone up arms can be extremely difficult if your source of advice is questionable. And unfortunately, most information on the internet is questionable. Thus, many women are completely lost when it comes to getting the lean and sexy arms of their dreams.

I know this is the case because of all the questions I receive on a daily basis.

But please don't blame yourself. After all, a lot of the confusion is created by savvy marketers. With endless products comes endless misinformation.

So without further delay, here are 5 myths on how to tone up arms:

1. Exercising on a daily basis is the best approach. This is a great way to get an overuse injury. Please do not try to do this. After all, once you tweak a tendon or ligament, healing will take a very long time. You body needs proper rest.

2. One arm is stronger than the other, therefore something is wrong. This is completely normal. In fact, I've never worked with a client whose arms were equally strong. The good news is that over time this difference will equalize.

3. I should be able to do 15 repetitions for every set in very workout. This will surely lead to arm toning failure! There are no cookie cutter rules here. In fact, you should strive to experiment with a wide variety of repetitions for maximum effect.

4. You should never get tired when working out. This is not true. And expect to get extra tired whenever you are breaking a personal best. The only time you should stop is if you start feeling queasy or sick. Otherwise keep on pushing through so that you get maximum benefit from your workouts.

5. If you're sore a couple days after exercising, something is wrong! This simply means that you had an intense workout-just what you need to do to tone up those arms. And keep in mind that this delayed soreness will decrease as you eat better and your body learns to recover faster.

Figuring out how to tone up arms does not have to be difficult. In fact, if you stay away from all the misinformation out there, it's much easier than you think. And the key here is to apply information immediately. Do not wait until tomorrow!
