Anyone interested in exercise and losing weight and is fully motivated knows that the journey ahead of them is long and hard but if they're sincerely devoted to it, the journey will be over much sooner than for others who will give up because it's just simply too much work for them. Combined with a proper and balanced weight loss diet, a great exercise routine can be a brutal blow to the fat in your body as long as your consistent with your work outs and not adding more fat to your body by sticking to your weight loss diet.

One of the most effective arm and upper body exercises I have ever done is called the butterfly flex. In this exercise, you simply hold both hands out to your sides so your arms are straight, then you arch both arms pulling your hands up and touching your shoulders. Then, you cross your hands touching the opposite shoulder and cross back over touching the original shoulders your hands were touching and then straighten your arms out again. This is one full rep of a butterfly flex and is a very effective arm work out.

If you effectively balance your weight loss diet with a good workout, you will be on your way to fit and healthy in no time and even if you are already fit and healthy, it never hurts to maintain the healthy and fit lifestyle you live for a longer life.

Your body has it's limits and you have to know what they are and you have to go past them. You might be exhausted and feel like you can't go on anymore but if you keep responding to your body every time this happens you'll see little to no results all the time and all the time you spend will be practically wasted.

So know your body's limits but don't obey them and push for your personal goals and don't stop until you achieve them.
