Here's What Actually Reduces Fat in Your Arms (Hint: It's Not Just Push-Ups)

The push-up is a classic move that will never lose its reputation for toning your arms. "For a modification, you can start with arms shoulder-width apart and knees on the floor, and then proceed through the movement the same way," Russell said.

How to do push-ups:

• Start in a high plank position with arms shoulder-width apart, shoulders directly over your wrists, and feet slightly spread apart.
• Bend your elbows, lowering your chest toward the ground until your shoulders are about even with your elbows and your nose nearly touches the floor. Engage your core and squeeze your butt to keep your body flat throughout this movement.
• Push back up to complete one rep. Repeat for 12-15 reps.
