Targeted upper body and shoulder training: effectively eliminates fat and aids in weight loss.

Upper Limb Shoulder Exercises

Generally speaking, due to the large amount of activity in the joints during daily life, subcutaneous fat is generally difficult to accumulate. However, some obese individuals may have fat accumulation around their shoulders. If there is fat accumulation in the shoulders, it can be eliminated through exercise. Shoulder exercises are as follows:

(1) Place your left hand on your right shoulder and gently press down. Repeat 10-20 times.

(2) Keeping the force of your left hand unchanged, shrug your right shoulder upwards, resisting your left hand. Repeat 10-20 times.

(3) After shrug your right shoulder as high as possible, suddenly release the shoulder force. Repeat 10 times.

(4) Then place your right hand on your left shoulder and repeat the same three steps. Repeat 10 times.

Although these are simple exercises, repeated daily will yield significant results.

These upper limb and shoulder exercises are not only effective for patients with obesity in the upper limbs and shoulders, but also for those with weak and thin upper limbs and shoulders. 15. Arm Exercises (Part 1)

Modern lifestyles mean people don't need to use their wrists much. Washing clothes can be done by the washing machine, sweeping by the vacuum cleaner, and shopping at the supermarket can be done by handcart. This reduces opportunities for arm movement, leading to fat accumulation and thicker arms. We can make our arms and wrists more shapely and toned through appropriate arm and wrist exercises.

The simplest and most convenient exercise is the stretching exercise, which can be done anytime, anywhere, during breaks from housework. The method is as follows:

(1) Stand with your fingers interlaced and palms facing upwards. Keep your back straight and raise both arms as high as possible while taking a deep breath. Repeat 15-20 times.

(2) Lower your arms behind your body, then continuously swing your wrists while raising your arms overhead. The swinging motion should be as if shaking off fat from the wrists to the entire arm. (3) Then, suddenly stop swinging your hands and quickly lower both arms. Repeat steps ② and ③ multiple times until your arms feel slightly fatigued.

Arm Exercises (II)

This exercise involves holding weights, specifically about 2kg in each hand. It has a muscle-tightening effect. As your strength adapts, you can gradually increase the weight. When doing this exercise, move your arms slowly, fully stretching and contracting your arm muscles. The most appropriate intensity is when your arms tremble slightly or feel slightly fatigued. The method is as follows:

(1) Hold 2kg dumbbells in each hand and raise them overhead from the front. Keep your arms straight and perform the movement slowly.

(2) Slowly lower your hands and extend them forward, keeping them level with your shoulders.

(3) Then fully extend your arms to the left and right sides, keeping them horizontal. You may experience some pain at first.

(4) Continue to engage your arms, then slowly lower both hands. Avoid dropping them suddenly.

(5) Raise both arms as far back and upward as possible. Raise and lower them slowly.

Repeat the above movements 10 times. You may experience some pain in your arms initially, but this pain will gradually disappear after about a week of practice. Therefore, continue practicing every day.
