Are you frustrated with flabby arms that won't seem to tighten up, no matter what you try? You're not alone. Millions of people struggle with this common problem, but there's hope. In this article, certified personal trainer and nutrition coachJenna Collins, with 25 years of dance experience in ballet, tap, and jazz, shares one simple yet powerful exercise that can help transform your arms – no equipment needed. Keep reading to discover this game-changing exercise that takes just minutes a day and can be done right in your living room, regardless of your fitness level or age.


Why Your Arms Get Flabby (And What You Can Do About It)

"There are several reasons for flabby arms," explains Jenna. "Most commonly, it's due to loss of collagen through aging, extreme weight loss, or being overweight." She notes that you can have flabby arms even if you're not overweight, often due to lack of muscle tone.

Age Matters: But Don't Let It Stop You

"Usually around our mid to late thirties, we begin to lose muscle mass," Jenna reveals. "That's why it's so important that we work hard to build and maintain muscle from a young age to minimize the effects of aging as much as possible." She shares an inspiring example: "I'm going to use this lady as my example. She's 65, and it just goes to show that with work and consistency, you can maintain tight-toned arms."

The Truth About Genetics and Body Goals

"Yes, some people are gifted with good genes and naturally have more muscle mass and find it easier to stay in shape and lose fat," Jenna acknowledges. "But do not let genes put you off. Yes, some people will have to work harder to build muscle and reach their body goals, but if you truly want it, you will make it work."

Nutrition: The Missing Piece of the Puzzle

"Building muscle doesn't mean you just lose the body fat. That's not how it works," Jenna emphasizes. "You need to have good nutrition habits in place to burn that body fat off so you can reveal those toned, tight muscles underneath. You'll never be able to out-train a bad diet."

Your Simple, No-Equipment Arm-Toning Exercise

Here's Jenna's guaranteed exercise for tighter arms:

  1. Stand with feet shoulder-width apart.
  2. Keep shoulders pressed back, chest open.
  3. Position elbows close to your sides.
  4. Bring arms forward with palms facing up and closed fists.
  5. Slowly move only your forearms backward, keeping your elbows pinned.
  6. Squeeze triceps tight when arms are fully extended.

"The key here is to squeeze your triceps on the extension as much as possible," Jenna advises. "If you didn't know you had these muscles, by the end of this exercise, you'll know they exist."

Making It Work: Sets, Reps, and Progression

Perform:

  • 10-12 reps per arm
  • 3-4 sets
  • 60-90 seconds rest between sets.

"You can perform this isometrically alternating your arms, or you can perform it moving both arms simultaneously," says Jenna. For those who want to progress, she suggests either increasing reps and sets or adding dumbbells for extra resistance. She adds, "If you can't do the standing, you can also do this seated."

The Secret to Success: Consistency Is Key

"To get results with anything, you need to remain consistent," Jenna emphasizes. "If you can't apply consistency, patience, and hard work, you just cannot expect to get results. There's no quick fix."

She adds that avoiding excessive cardio is crucial: "This will not tighten and tone your arms. You need to be focusing on resistance training. The more lean muscle mass you have, the more calories your body will burn at rest."

Creating Lasting Habits

"The earlier you start this, the easier it'll be to maintain it as you get older," Jenna shares. "It's not only because you'll likely already have the muscle tone, but it creates good habits. If they're instilled early, they'll be easy to stick to as you get older, it's become your lifestyle."

We've all been there – standing in front of the mirror, waving our arms, and watching that extra flab jiggle. But what if you could transform those "bat wings" into toned, sculpted arms with just a few minutes of targeted exercise each day? Enter Meredith Shirk, a National Academy of Sports Medicine Certified Personal Trainer (NASM-CPT) and the founder of Svelte Training. With her impressive credentials, including specializations in Fitness Nutrition, Behavior Change, and Weight Loss, Meredith has designed a quick and effective arm workout that promises to help you say goodbye to flabby arms for good.


Understanding Arm Fat

Before diving into Meredith's workout, it's important to understand what arm fat is and why it matters. According to WebMD, "Arm fat is extra skin and fat located under your arms." While some arm fat is normal and healthy, excessive amounts can be more than just a cosmetic issue. WebMD explains, "While having some subcutaneous fat is good for your health, having too much can cause health issues, including an increased risk for certain cancers, fatty liver disease, gallbladder disease, and more."

The Root Causes of Arm Fat

Arm fat doesn't appear out of nowhere. WebMD states, "Extra skin and fat in the arms can be caused by obesity, significant weight loss, or genetics. Individuals born female are at a greater risk of carrying excess weight in their arms." Understanding these factors can help you approach arm fat reduction more effectively.

Say Goodbye to Bat Wings

"I have an awesome bat wing workout, so you're not going to be waving those wings any longer," Meredith enthusiastically begins her post. This workout is specifically designed to target those troublesome areas and help you achieve the toned arms you've always wanted.

Monkey Pumps: Your Secret Weapon Against Flabby Arms

Meredith kicks off the workout with her favorite exercise: monkey pumps. "It's just as it sounds," she explains. "Grab it and pull it down." To perform this move:

  1. Align your elbows with your shoulders and wrists
  2. Open up and close your arms
  3. Keep your elbows above your chin to target your triceps and chest

Meredith emphasizes the importance of proper form: "You want to think about keeping that elbow above the chin line because that's really going to push a lot on your triceps and your chest."

Arm Circles: Small Movements, Big Results

Next up are small arm circles. "Really think about tennis ball size here," Meredith instructs. Perform these circles in both forward and backward directions. This simple movement targets multiple muscle groups in your arms and shoulders, helping to tone and define your upper body.

Lateral Raises: Engage Your Whole Body

Lateral raises are more than just arm exercises. Meredith explains, "You actually have to do something with your body, meaning you're here, you're lifting and you're really pulling your legs in together at the same time as squeezing your core and your rhomboids and your lats." This full-body engagement maximizes the effectiveness of the exercise, helping you burn more calories and build more muscle.

Scissors: Cross-Training for Your Arms

The final exercise in Meredith's routine is scissors. "We go from here, we're here, right? And then we're here and then here," she demonstrates. "So now we're crisscrossing our arms." This movement targets both your biceps and triceps, providing a comprehensive arm workout in one simple exercise.

Fine-Tuning Your Technique

Meredith offers additional advice to maximize your results: "If you want to get a little bit more of your bicep, come across with it here and then go inside. You can have almost overlapping bicep curls. You do more tricep by putting your hands flexed and then going faster, pulling your chest back, shoulders up."

Putting It All Together

Meredith combines these exercises into a quick, high-intensity routine:

  1. 30 seconds of monkey pumps
  2. 30 seconds of arm circles (15 seconds forward, 15 seconds backward)
  3. 30 seconds of lateral raises
  4. 30 seconds of scissors

"Those are our exercises. We're going to be doing all types of exercise. Make sure your triceps, your biceps, and your back, stay lean. So we avoid the bat wings," Meredith explains.

The Importance of a Holistic Approach

While Meredith's workout is effective, it's important to remember that spot reduction isn't possible. WebMD advises, "Natural treatment options for arm fat include diet and exercise. Since arm fat is often associated with being overweight or losing a significant amount of weight, the first step is changing your eating habits and incorporating more exercise into your days."

The Key to Effective Workouts

Throughout the workout, Meredith encourages movement: "When you think about this, you can walk around because you shouldn't be in a static place anyway. Life should not be static for you. Working out should not be static for you."

Push Through for Results

Meredith doesn't sugarcoat the challenge: "If your arms are not feeling like 1 million pounds, then you're not doing this right." She encourages you to push through the discomfort, reminding you that "it's going to burn, and it's okay."

The Foundation of Effective Exercise

Throughout the routine, Meredith emphasizes proper form: "Chest up, shoulders back, meet in the middle, come out and reach." She also reminds you to "Face those hands to you. Come out and reach."

Don't Forget This Crucial Element

Meredith consistently reminds you to breathe throughout the workout. "Breathe in. Breathe and pull," she encourages, highlighting the importance of proper breathing techniques during exercise.

The Path to Success

Meredith concludes with an inspiring message: "Do this consistently and you will see that fat go away!" She adds, "It doesn't have to be hard, it doesn't have to be long. It doesn't have to be scary, but it can be a lot of fun and you can do it in less time you thought possible."

However, it's important to set realistic expectations. As WebMD notes, "You shouldn't expect to see results right away. In fact, losing stubborn fat can take months of continuous effort. Your progress will depend on you. If you're already at a healthy weight, it may take only a few weeks to notice results. However, those at a higher weight may not see results for a while."

You Can Do It

While Meredith's workout is an excellent starting point, remember that a holistic approach is key. WebMD suggests, "For the best results, it's important to combine a decent sleep schedule with a well-balanced diet and a vigorous exercise routine." By combining Meredith's targeted arm exercises with overall healthy lifestyle habits, you'll be on your way to toned, sculpted arms in no time.

Many women struggle with arm fat, or what they often call "batwings," and are looking for ways to tone up and achieve leaner arms. Michelle Roots, a kinesiologist, personal trainer, and nutrition coach with over 17 years of experience, shares awesome videos to guide you through realistic methods that truly work. Michelle debunks common myths like spot reduction, explains the importance of strength training, and emphasizes the need for consistency and a well-balanced diet. With the right combination of exercises, proper nutrition, and a smart approach to fitness, achieving toned, lean arms is entirely possible—just not in a week. Patience and dedication are key to long-lasting results.


The Truth About Arm Fat Loss

Michelle, in her popular video, begins by addressing the misleading information often found online. "How to lose arm fat in three days, how to lose arm fat fast, how to lose arm fat in seven days," she says in her video, highlighting the unrealistic promises made by some fitness influencers. "It really frustrates me because I deal with so many women who have a negative body image and they just really are putting in the work and working so hard and then getting frustrated or feeling like they're a failure because they're not getting results in seven days and it's not their fault."

Stephanie Mansour, a trainer, adds: "I encourage my clients to do an arm workout at least three times a week to build muscle, plus cardio at least twice a week to help with overall fat and calorie burns," she told NBC News.

Understanding Arm Fat

Several factors contribute to the appearance of arm fat, including genetics, age, and lifestyle changes. Michelle explains in her video, "As we age, you begin to lose muscle mass at a faster rate, which means your metabolism is going to naturally slow down if you're not doing anything to counterbalance, either maintaining the muscle you have or continuing to increase your lean muscle as you age."

It's also important to note that some jiggle is normal. Michelle demonstrates this point: "See this jiggle. I've got jiggle too. I just want to say it is a little bit normal when you're not flexed to have some jiggly skin."

The Myth of Spot Reduction

One of the most persistent myths about arm fat is the concept of spot reduction. Michelle debunks this idea in her video: "So if you're not sure what spot reduction means, it's basically if I only just went and did tricep extensions on the cable machine or anywhere, if I only did tricep exercises, is that going to help tone up the back of my arms? No, this is a myth, so our bodies just don't work that way."

The Cleveland Clinic supports this view, stating: "Losing weight essentially comes down to one thing: By burning more calories than you're eating, a math solution called a calorie deficit. You can create a calorie deficit by reducing your calorie intake or combining fewer calories with more exercise."

Realistic Tips for Toned Arms

Michelle, in her video, offers three key tips for achieving leaner, stronger arms:

1. Lock in Your Nutrition

"Whether your goal is body recomposition or strictly fat loss, you want to make sure you were eating either at maintenance or in a slight calorie deficit in order to lose body fat," she says.

2. Be Consistent and Patient

"Don't be flexing in the mirror every single day and shaking your arm every single day to see if anything has changed. Put in the work, show up consistently week after week and watch the magic happen," Michelle advises.

3. Strength Training

"If your goal is to see lines, see how I have a little line here, a shoulder cap, you want to see some tricep lines, you want to see biceps... if you want to see all this stuff, you're not going to get that from just doing cardio and eating in a calorie deficit," she says.

Effective Arm Exercises

Michelle in her video recommends a combination of compound and isolation exercises for building arm strength and definition. Some of her favorites include:

  • Chest press (can be done with dumbbells or barbells)
  • Pull-ups or chin-ups (or assisted versions)
  • Overhead press
  • Cable tricep extensions
  • Dumbbell skull crushers
  • Pushups (including variations like diamond pushups)
  • Bicep curls
  • Dumbbell lateral raises

The Importance of Overall Health

While focusing on arm exercises is important, it's crucial to remember that overall health and fitness play a significant role in achieving toned arms. As the Cleveland Clinic suggests, "The Mediterranean Diet pyramid is one way to visualize what foods you should eat and how often... All Mediterranean Diet pyramids encourage you to eat mostly veggies, fruits, whole grain, and extra virgin olive oil while limiting red meat and sweets."

Exercise — The More, The Better

Additionally, proper rest is essential. UCLA Health warns, "When it comes to exercise, more is not always better. Exercising too much — too often or too intensely — can lead to problems. It can even stop you from achieving your fitness goals."

By following these expert tips and maintaining a balanced approach to fitness and nutrition, you can work towards achieving the lean, strong arms you desire. Don’t forget that it's not a sprint but a journey that requires patience and consistency, but with the right approach, you can see real, lasting results.

Ever catch a glimpse of your arms in the mirror and wish they were more toned? You're not alone. Upper arm flab is one of the most common concerns among women, especially after 40. But here's something refreshing – you don't need expensive equipment or hours at the gym to make a difference.


Meet Schellea "Shelly" Fowler, a 58-year-old certified Neuroathletics coach and fitness instructor specializing in helping women over 50 achieve their fitness goals. "This workout is perfect for you if you want to work on this part of your arm," she says, pointing to the dreaded 'bat wing' area. "It's only going to take five minutes and we're going to work it hard."

Quick Warm-Up: Fire Up Those Triceps

"Bend your knees straight back and lean forward," Shelly begins in her post. The first exercise targets the triceps with a simple yet effective movement. "Put your focus on squeezing that tricep muscle as you extend your arm," she emphasizes. Each exercise runs for 45 seconds with a 10-second rest, making every moment count.

Tricep Dips: Your Secret Weapon

"If you're really serious about toning your bat wings, this is the exercise for you," Shelly declares. Using just your body weight, lower your arms down and push back up. Need more challenge? Simply move your legs further forward. Remember, as Shelly encourages, "Even if you only completed two or three of those, you did a great job."

Prayer Press: Target Those Problem Areas

This unique movement starts with hands in a prayer position. "Join your hands in prayer position as we extend our arm out," Shelly demonstrates. Your palms should face away at the end, fingers forming a diamond shape. "Keep going. You've got this," she motivates, knowing this exercise specifically targets stubborn upper arm flab.

Power Through: The Shoulder Press

"Raise your arms to be parallel to your shoulders," Shelly guides. This exercise combines arm raises with precise movements. Her motivation tip? "Imagine yourself with the beautiful sleeveless top and your strong toned arms." This mental imagery helps push through the challenge.

High-Elbow Holds: Feel the Burn

"Keep your elbows high and your arms very strong," Shelly instructs. This focused movement requires mental engagement: "Focus on that tricep muscle... see it in your mind's eye contracting in and out." This mind-muscle connection amplifies your results.

Finish Strong: Overhead Extensions

The final push targets every fiber of your triceps. "Take our arms over our head, join our hands in prayer position one more time," Shelly guides. "Think of that tricep muscle, think of it contracting in and out, and think of all of the amazing work that you're doing."

The Science Behind Bat Wings

Dr. Richard Glogau, a San Francisco dermatologist, explains why arms become more challenging to tone with age: "Flabby arms are due to a combination of factors associated with aging and genetics, including an increase in overall body fat mass, loss of muscle mass in the arms associated with aging and reduced activity, and a loss of elasticity in the skin due to both aging and sun damage."

Your Path to Success

While spot reduction isn't possible, combining these targeted exercises with overall fitness can make a significant difference. As Shelly reminds us, "If you need to take a sneaky cheat, that's okay," but consistency is key. The goal isn't perfection – it's progress.

What makes this workout effective is its focused approach combined with achievable goals. "What a great way to spend five minutes. We just did some really good work," Shelly concludes."As long as you aim to be 1% better than you were yesterday, you are a winner," she adds.

  • Protect your skin from sun damage to maintain elasticity.

Rebecca Louise, certified NASM & Yoga Trainer, is on a mission to help people transform their bodies and mindsets through effective home workouts. With a background in competitive sports, Rebecca understands the importance of exercise and teamwork. After feeling lost in traditional gym settings, she discovered the power of home workouts and began sharing her routines online. Now, she's here to guide you through an effective arm-toning workout that promises results in just 10 minutes. "Hey guys, do you have some saggy skin that you want to get rid of? Well, today, I have got the perfect 10 minutes to tighten up your skin and tone your arms. Let's do this," Rebecca says enthusiastically in the video. Here's exactly what to do.


Nutrition and Fitness: The Perfect Balance

How to reduce the sag oin your arms? "Now 80% is going to be nutrition, 20% is going to be the fitness, but I'm going to crush you with that 20% right now," she explains, emphasizing the importance of a balanced approach.

Getting Started: Equipment Options

Rebecca advises, "If you've got mini kettlebells, great. If you've got dumbbells, great. If you've got no weight, it doesn't matter. But the most important thing is we are going to work out throughout this whole exercise."

Exercise 1: The V-Push

"You're going to grab hold of your weights, your dumbbells, however they are with your palms facing up. And we are going to bring those elbows out to the side and you're going to push up into a V and bring it back to here," she instructs in the video.

Proper Form and Mindset

"We are going to start to really work those triceps. So let's tighten up that skin, tone up the upper part of our body, get some confidence and rock it," Rebecca says encouragingly.

Exercise 2: Pulse and Hold

"Okay, we're going to pulse up and down, small little pulses, however you are holding. If you've got weights, it's got a dog, any chance sometimes that happens to me, you're going to release those shoulders away from those ears and you're going to do small little pulses," she explains, detailing the next move.

Exercise 3: Bicep Curls with a Twist

"So you're going to bring me a bicep curl and take it all the way through. So lift, hold and swing it back down," Rebecca demonstrates, adding a unique twist to the classic bicep curl.

The Importance of Challenging Yourself

"And those last couple of reps want to be difficult. So if this is too easy, just means that your weight isn't heavy enough and you are not going to bulk up these workouts. Do not get you bulky," she reassures in the video.

Exercise 4: Back and Bicep Combo

"Weights right out in front of you. You're going to pull it in here and then slowly, that's it. This is what's tidying it up, taking it nice and slow and then bring it in towards you," Rebecca instructs, introducing a move that targets multiple muscle groups.

Exercise 5: Shoulder Press Variation

"Okay, we're going to take one arm and we are going to push up to the sky and we're going to drop that elbow all the way in towards us," she says, describing a unique shoulder exercise.

Exercise 6: Tricep Dips

"You're going to come down to the ground. You're going to have your hands directly underneath your shoulders, and we're going to come down to your knees, hands here," Rebecca explains, setting up for tricep dips.

Exercise 7: Overhead Tricep Extension

"We are going to take it over the top of our head. So we're going to bring both of them. If you've got two dumbbells, if you've just got one really heavy one, their feet hit with this apart, we're going to take it down and we're going to extend up," she instructs, detailing the overhead tricep extension.

The Final Push

Struggling with weight loss can feel like an uphill battle, especially when diet and exercise alone aren't delivering the results you need. For many people, weight loss medications have become a game-changer in their health journey. Dr. Jennifer McCann, a Board-certified OB/GYN and Obesity Medicine specialist, has been helping women optimize their health for over 12 years through comprehensive care that addresses gynecology, hormonal balance, and weight management. Read on to discover her expert tips that could supercharge your results while on these increasingly popular medications.

What Are Weight Loss Injections?

These breakthrough treatments include medications like semaglutide (Ozempic) and tirzepatide (Mounjaro), explains Dr. McCann. While semaglutide has received FDA approval specifically for weight loss in certain individuals, tirzepatide is currently approved for type 2 diabetes treatment. Despite this distinction, Dr. McCann notes that both medications have demonstrated significant weight loss results, particularly beneficial for those with limited mobility who struggle with traditional exercise-based approaches.

How These Medications Work

The science behind these injections involves multiple mechanisms that work together to promote weight loss. "They inhibit glucagon release, which is what makes you hungry," Dr. McCann explains in her post. Additionally, these medications decrease glucose production from the liver, delay gastric emptying, and reduce appetite—all contributing to what can be substantial weight reduction. However, Dr. McCann cautions that they aren't suitable for everyone, particularly those with personal or family histories of thyroid cancer or certain endocrine conditions.

Consider Potential Side Effects

Before starting any weight loss medication, it's important to understand possible side effects. Dr. McCann reports that patients may experience nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal cramps when beginning treatment. "Most of these side effects go away or subside after taking these medicines for a few weeks, but they can be prolonged and sometimes they don't go away," says Dr. McCann. This realistic expectation setting helps patients prepare for their weight loss journey.

Tip #1: Eliminate All Sodas and Sugary Drinks

Making this critical lifestyle change while on weight loss injections can dramatically improve your results. Dr. McCann emphasizes the serious impact of sugary beverages: "Drinking one can of soda can make you gain 15 pounds over one year. One can a day, 15 pounds over one year." This warning extends beyond just sodas to include slushies, sweetened coffee drinks, and any beverage with significant sugar content. The good news? You don't have to give up caffeine—Dr. McCann suggests black coffee with stevia or sugar-free skinny lattes as satisfying alternatives.

Tip #2: Prioritize Lean Protein

When your appetite decreases due to the medication, making every calorie count becomes essential. "Protein increases your metabolism by increasing your muscle, and that again lets you burn more calories," Dr. McCann advises. Because these medications both reduce appetite and slow digestion, focusing on lean protein whenever you do eat helps maintain muscle mass—crucial for keeping your metabolism active. Without adequate protein intake, you risk losing muscle along with fat, potentially compromising your long-term results.

Tip #3: Commit to Regular Exercise

No weight loss strategy would be complete without physical activity, and Dr. McCann's approach is refreshingly accessible. For beginners without an existing exercise routine, she recommends just 20 minutes of high-intensity training four times weekly—nothing overwhelming but enough to make a difference. "Exercise is very important for weight loss, for keeping the weight off, for your cardiovascular health," explains Dr. McCann, adding that it also serves as a natural anxiety remedy by releasing cortisol. For those with physical limitations, she suggests consulting a personal trainer to develop appropriate muscle-maintaining activities.

Use Medications as a Starting Point for Lasting Change

The true value of weight loss injections lies in how you leverage their effects. Dr. McCann encourages patients to view these medications as catalysts rather than permanent solutions: "Use this weight loss boost to start your healthy living so that you can lose even more weight and be able to keep it off after you stop the injections." This mindset shifts the focus from temporary medical intervention to sustainable lifestyle transformation—ultimately the key to maintaining your hard-earned results.

Remember: It's About Long-Term Success

Weight loss injections can provide impressive initial results, but your habits determine whether those results last. Dr. McCann emphasizes that the habits you develop while on medication—eliminating sugary drinks, prioritizing protein, and establishing regular exercise—create the foundation for lasting success. By implementing these practices now, you're not just maximizing your current weight loss; you're building the lifestyle that will help you maintain your healthier weight for years to come.

Struggling to hit your protein goals without resorting to bland chicken breast or chalky protein shakes? You're not alone. Dani Spies, health coach, weight loss expert, and creator of Clean & Delicious, understands this common frustration. "Focusing on real whole foods, specifically high-protein foods, especially when paired with fiber, can help you feel satiated and satisfied for longer periods throughout the day," says Dani. While no single food creates weight loss (you still need that energy deficit), these protein-packed options will make your weight loss journey far more enjoyable and sustainable. Discover these 12 delicious alternatives that will transform how you approach protein.

Cottage Cheese: The Versatile Protein Base

Cottage cheese deserves its spot at the top of any protein list with an impressive 14 grams per half cup. "I love cottage cheese. It is so delicious," Dani says in her post. Its creamy texture and neutral flavor make it perfect for both sweet and savory applications. You can spread it on toast, blend it into pasta dishes, create protein-packed pancakes, or even use it as the base for a pizza bowl. The versatility is endless, making cottage cheese a must-have protein staple for your fridge.

Canned Salmon: Budget-Friendly Omega-3 Powerhouse

Don't overlook this pantry hero that delivers 17 grams of protein per 3-ounce serving. "Canned salmon is a delicious, convenient, budget-friendly way to enjoy salmon without the price tag of fresh salmon fillets," explains Dani. Beyond protein, it's loaded with anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids that support overall health. For maximum nutrition, opt for wild-caught varieties. Enjoy it straight from the can, whip up a quick salmon salad with onions and celery, or form it into salmon burgers for a protein-packed meal.

Tempeh: Plant-Based Protein with Texture

This fermented soybean product offers plant-based eaters a substantial 16 grams of protein per 3-ounce serving. "Think of it as tofu's heartier cousin," Dani describes. "It has more texture and even more protein." The nutty, earthy flavor and dense, chewy texture make tempeh distinctly satisfying. As a fermented food, it also supports gut health. Dani recommends slicing tempeh into slabs, marinating in soy sauce, garlic, and a touch of maple syrup, then pan-frying until golden for a simple, delicious protein option.

Lentils: Protein-Fiber Combo for Lasting Fullness

With 18 grams of protein and 15 grams of fiber per cooked cup, lentils keep hunger at bay longer than most foods. "That combination of protein and fiber is fantastic for satiety," Dani points out. These versatile legumes come in various forms—dried, steamed, or canned—making them convenient for any kitchen. Toss them into salads for a protein boost, simmer them into hearty soups, or blend them into a high-protein alternative to traditional chickpea hummus. Their earthy flavor complements countless dishes while keeping you satisfied.

Chicken and Turkey Sausage: Lean Protein Made Convenient

Pre-cooked poultry sausages provide 12-14 grams of protein per link with significantly less fat than traditional pork varieties. "The nice thing about chicken and turkey sausage is that they tend to be much lower in fat," Dani explains. This balance helps you increase protein intake without adding excessive calories—crucial when managing your overall energy balance for weight loss. Keep these in your refrigerator for quick protein solutions on busy weeknights. Dani suggests slicing and browning them, then serving with fresh vegetables, fruits, and dips for a satisfying family meal that requires minimal preparation.

Greek Yogurt: Probiotic Protein for Sweet or Savory Dishes

This creamy dairy product packs 15 grams of protein per 3/4 cup while supporting gut health with beneficial probiotics. "Greek yogurt is a protein powerhouse," Dani confirms. Its versatility spans both sweet applications like overnight oats and chia pudding as well as savory uses. Swap mayo for Greek yogurt in tuna or egg salads to boost protein while reducing calories. "It's also delicious when you use it as the base for salad dressings," Dani shares. Her Greek yogurt blue cheese and creamy balsamic dressings prove how this protein source enhances flavors while supporting your nutrition goals.

With 18 grams of protein per 3-ounce serving, shrimp offers substantial nutrition in a quick-cooking package. "It's really convenient because it's very quick cooking," Dani notes. Keep frozen shrimp on hand for last-minute protein additions to meals. Use it in stir-fries, fried rice, or classic shrimp scampi when cooking, or purchase shrimp cocktail for ready-to-eat protein throughout the week. Dani suggests transforming leftover shrimp into a protein-rich salad by combining with diced red onion, celery, mayo or Greek yogurt, and fresh dill—simple yet satisfying.

Ground Turkey: Versatile Protein for Meal Prep

Use it as a meal prep "headstart ingredient" by cooking with taco seasoning for versatile protein you can incorporate into multiple meals throughout the week. It excels in turkey burgers, hearty chili, protein-rich bolognese sauce, and flavorful meatballs that can transform simple meals into satisfying feasts.

Hemp Seeds: Small Seeds, Big Protein Impact

Don't underestimate these tiny nutritional powerhouses that provide 10 grams of plant-based protein in just 3 tablespoons. "While I wouldn't use it as my core protein source for the day, it is a fantastic ingredient to keep on hand as a way to boost your protein intake over the entire day," Dani advises. Sprinkle these subtly nutty seeds over smoothies, yogurt bowls, oatmeal, or salads to incrementally increase your daily protein intake without changing your core meals. Their mild flavor complements both sweet and savory dishes.

Parmesan Cheese: Concentrated Flavor and Protein

This aged hard cheese contains 10 grams of protein per ounce along with calcium and distinctive savory flavor. "Parmesan is a hard-aged cheese that is packed with protein," Dani explains. "It's a fantastic way to add a flavor boost to so many different types of dishes." Enjoy it sliced with apples for a simple snack, or grate it over soups, salads, pasta dishes, and roasted vegetables.

Eggs and Egg Whites: The Complete Protein Package

With 7 grams of protein per whole egg and 11-12 grams per half cup of whites, eggs remain a nutritional standout. "Eggs and egg whites are a fantastic, whole, high-protein food to work into your diet," Dani confirms. Keep hard-boiled eggs prepared for quick protein additions to meals and snacks throughout the week. Add them to cottage cheese toast, savory oatmeal, or transform them into egg salad. For lower-fat protein options, egg whites can boost the protein content of French toast, pancakes, oatmeal, or veggie-packed egg white muffins.

This game meat delivers 23 grams of protein with just 3 grams of fat per 3-ounce serving. "Ground venison is a super nutrient-dense source of protein," Dani shares. "It's much leaner than ground beef." Use it anywhere you'd typically use ground beef—tacos, burgers, chili, or meatballs. Dani notes that its leanness can make it slightly drier than beef, so cooking techniques may need slight adjustments. Check your store's freezer section if you don't find it with fresh meats. This alternative red meat offers variety when you're seeking something different in your protein rotation.

Mayra Wendolyne of Low Carb Love lost over 100 pounds and has amassed millions of followers for her tips and tricks on how she did it. In a viral YouTube video, she reveals the top 9 low-carb, ready-to-eat meals at Costco.

Birria

“You cannot go wrong with Birria. Birria takes so long to cook. If you've ever tried to make it or you know someone that's made it, this is like an all day project. It's worth it, but this one here is already cooked, completely cooked, all you have to do is heat it up so you can toss this in the microwave, toss it in the oven, whatever the case,” she says. “You can make tacos, you can make quesadacos. There are so many different things that you can make with this or even serve it just in a bowl, top it with cilantro and onion and lime and you are set.”

Chicken Tinga

Another “low carb, weight loss friendly, diabetic friendly, and also very, very high in protein” meal is chicken tinga. “Chicken tinga is very easy to make, but sometimes when you're in a rush and you just want something made, this is something that you can serve with some cauli rice as side salad. You can also make a quesadilla. You can make a burrito. There are so many different things that you can make with this. And this is just, again, pop it in the microwave, pop it in the oven, stovetop, whatever, and it is good to go.”

Beef Kabobs

Moving on to “a little Middle Eastern, a little Mediterranean flair” she suggests beef kabobs. “These are super, super easy to throw together. You can make a wrap. You can obviously serve this with a side salad, a little tzatziki sauce, a little cucumber salad, there are so many things that you can do with this, but most importantly, these are low in calorie, high in protein, low in carbs. So another one for the win.”

Kevin’s Chimichurri Beef

Next up chimichurri beef. “I've actually never tried this one, but I do love all of Kevin's foods. He does a lot of pre-made stuff here at Costco. They're clean, they're paleo, low carb. He usually does a lot of things that you wouldn't typically find low carb, like broccoli beef, orange chicken. Like he does a lot of things that typically have like a very sugary sauce and he makes them low carbm” she says. “Again, pair this with a little cauli rice, a little side salad. It's so easy to make this. It's fully cooked. Again, just toss in the microwave.”

Organic Broccoli Chicken Cheddar Stuffed Breast

Nex up, an “organic broccoli chicken cheddar stuffed chicken breast,” she says. “This is also really awesome. Sometimes I feel like there are times where you want to have something that's healthy, you want to have something that tastes very like homemade. But this here is definitely something that to me feels like very light, very healthy,” she says, adding that it’s 23 grams of protein for five ounces. “That's amazing. Five net carbs. So again, super low carb, super high in protein, 210 calories. That's awesome.”

Fully Cooked Shrimp

\u200bFully Cooked Shrimp

“Okay, now this is more of like a snack. I'm going to be honest, I usually grab one of these to eat on my way home. Just some fully cooked shrimp, their little cocktail sauce, a little lemon. This is super, super delicious. I feel like it's super light. This is perfect for summer. A lot of times when I'm going to have people over, I usually grab a couple of these and then put them on the table like a whole charcuterie kind of like island. This is a great option. I wouldn't say it's so much like a full meal, but it's definitely something that you can have as a light lunch”

Caesar Salad

Her next recommendation is the Caesar salad. “it is so delicious. The only thing I do is obviously take out the croutons. One, because of the carbs, two, because of the gluten, it just really messes with my stomach. But other than that, this is another great option. Even if you grab that chicken, the chicken breast that I just showed you.”

Ready-to-Eat Poke

Spicy Ahi Poke

Annasea

The next item is ready-to-eat-poke. “They have the spicy ahi poke and then just the ahi wasabi poke. And this is another just super easy meal,” she says. “This will be good just all by itself. Super quick lunch, super quick dinner. I think if you wanted to make it more of a hearty meal, you can obviously pair this with rice or even like a cauli rice.

Egg Bites

\u200bKirkland Signature Sous Vide Egg Bites​Kirkland Signature Sous Vide Egg BitesCopyright Costco

And for breakfast, she recommends Costco egg white bites. “If you follow me on Instagram, you know that I was literally obsessed with the Starbucks egg white bites. These are $5 a pop.

So this is obviously a much better deal. These are fully cooked, toss them in the microwave. I personally like to toss them in the air fryer because I'd like to get a little bit of a crisp, huh? 11 grams of protein. Only 150 calories,” she says. “Super, super low in calories, decent protein. This one here is 17 grams of protein and 280.” And if you enjoyed this article, take advantage of these 15 Quick Ways to Lose Body Fat Percentage in a Week.
