Hey, it's Ben Greenfield. I want to give you a quick tip for toning the backs of your arms with the gym stick. What you do is you start off with 10 repetitions of a chest press with the gym stick in a kneeling position. Just press out and back. Once you've done 10 of these, in which you've actually kind of pre fatigued your arms, you take the gym stick up overhead into this position and you do 10 overhead tricep extensions and then you'll rest. Or better yet, do a series of cardio exercises like jumping jacks or running in place. Go back and go through the chest press to the tricep extensions again. Do three to five sets of that and you'll notice great results right here in the back of your arms. Try it out.
