Shake Weights for that underarm flab!

I'm thinking about buying Shake Weights for these flabby arms of mine and was wondering if any of you have them and do they really do the job?

don't buy.  Its just a gimmick and doesn't work.  My friend got and it was a joke. 

I have one, and I got it at a garage sale. It does make my arms feel stronger and helps tone a TINY bit, but overall, like most of the reviews say, "just a way to improve your handjob skills"

Haha, in the end, I might end up selling mine, and buying regular hand weights.

 LOL, Jamie..everytime I am at the store with my fiance and we see them, I ask him if he will use them so I can watch.

Even if you build up your arm muscles (I have no idea if that thing works or not, but you CAN use regular hand weights to build them up), that will do VERY little to address the "batwings", depending on how big they are. 

If you only have a little bit of excess skin, ti might help enough that it will no longer bother you.  If you have a lot of excess skin there, though, and  -- like many of us -- it has no elasticity left or there is simply too much extra skin that you actually grew to cover all the fat), you would have to build up as much muscle as you originally had fat in order to fill all that skin back out!  Pretty impossible for women.

 In my aqua zumba class, we use plastic water bottles filled half way with water instead.  The same effect as the shake weights and much cheaper. 

At the Washington Township Rec Center, by any chance...?  I did water aerobics fro a while but once I lost the weight I got SO cold for the last part of class when they would focus on arms and cooling down... I would be shaking, teeth chattering, etc., and would have to stand under the hair dryer in the locker room to warm back up!  Decided it just wasn't worth it!

 I'm on the other end of town, in Huber Hts.  I go to the Ladies Premiere Fitness here.  They have water zumba (my favorite), water aerobics, and water paddle.  It's pretty nice.  The pool is in the same room with the hot tub, sauna and steam room, so it's pretty warm there.  I don't know if they have a location that end of town.  I still have plenty of "insulation" lol.  I am hoping when I get down a another 50lbs to try the actual zumba class.
