ARMS HAVE CAME A LOOOOOOOOOONG WAY

HAPPY MONDAYYY!!

If you can't tell it's definitely a sleepy Monday for me...I had so many clips with my eyes closed 😴 😪

But regardless I made it happen ! It looks easy to show up everyday but the way my bed and covers had me in a chokehold after a long working weekend...boooy if it wasn't Monday the workout had a 50/50 chance if happening 😅 I truly believe Mondays set the tone though so it had to happen.

I opted for this toned arms workout versus legs because I didn't feel my energy levels were up for leg day and also having a little mild RA flare up so I really didn't want to add anymore fuel to the RA fire ! Knowing your limits and your body with any autoimmune disorder is MAJOR KEY!

For the workout, I did 4 sets of 12-15 of everything and pretty much used the 5, 10, and 15 pound dumbbells [whichever one I could at least 12 reps in without compromising form]

Sports bra is still a favorite from Prozis ! (KALIASQUEEN for $$ off ANY purchase btw 😃)

Happy Monday Fam! Let's thrive this week ✨️

... Read moreAchieving toned arms is a journey that requires consistency, proper technique, and listening to your body—especially when managing conditions like rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Incorporating a tonal arms workout into your routine with manageable dumbbell weights not only strengthens muscles but also supports joint health without overexerting yourself. Using varied weights such as 5, 10, and 15-pound dumbbells allows flexibility depending on your current energy levels and physical condition. Performing 4 sets of 12-15 repetitions is an effective rep range that balances muscle endurance and strength building without risking form breakdown. When dealing with autoimmune disorders like RA, it’s essential to recognize early signs of a flare and adjust workouts accordingly to prevent aggravation. Opting for upper body workouts over leg days during low-energy periods or mild flare-ups can help maintain fitness gains while minimizing inflammation risk. Remember, the biggest progress happens when you respect your body’s signals and adapt exercises responsibly. Engaging in a consistent routine—even on sleepy or challenging days—sets a positive tone for the rest of the week and contributes to overall wellness. Also, wearing comfortable, supportive workout gear such as a high-quality sports bra can enhance your exercise experience and motivation. Embrace your fitness journey with patience and determination, focusing on sustainable practices that make you feel empowered and energized, no matter what Monday throws your way. #tonedarms #dumbbellworkout #homeworkout #fitmomsinspire #unfiltered
