If toning exercises doesn't work, my suggestion is try getting a slimming wrap. You can apply a paste made of a specific mix of ingredients and then wrap the area you want to get slimmer. I read that seaweed is good for firming, and this other tyoe of clay which I forgot the name. I think you can get this done at a spa or you can actually try to make them yourself, there are a lot of articles online that teach you how. I've read that they are effective, but I haven't tried it myself, because the ingredients are not available where I live. But if the materials or service is available, I would try it in a heartbeat!

You can't spot reduce. Arms are a difficult area for everyone. Are you weight training? I do 2 sets of 15 reps of bicep curls using a weight of 20 lbs. I worked up to that weight and started at 5 lbs. I also do 2 sets of 15 reps of tricep exercises using a weight of 30 lbs. Again, I worked up to that starting at a weight of 20 lbs. When these get easy, don't add more weight, add more reps. You should also watch your diet. Do you need to lose weight or do you just have problems in the arms? Women have a particularly hard time with upper body strength
