It will provide you with the Protein to build your arms (muscles). I don't know your body type but you may want to look into products that help with "Cutting" to help with the more sculpted look.

Yes, Casein protein helps with the formation and maintaining all muscles. It will certainly help you with your arm muscles.

It depends on what you consider "adjustable" this machine allows you to set workout levels for combined arm and leg exercises. So, if you don't use your arms you can just exercise your legs which I what my wife does. All-in-all a very nice exercise machine that has help me regain much of the strength I lost form several brain abysses.

Yes and no. I don't think that's the answer you were looking for so I'll explain. I changed from weight lifting to the rack for a couple reasons, one being a health issue, degenerative disc in my back which greatly limits the amount I'm able to lift. When I changed to the rack I didn't expect what I got. I had noticeable gains in my arms, chest and back. Legs not so much. If you stick to the schedule and routine you will absolutely get results but you're limited to the results you'll get. The rack only weighs so much, even if you get the additional weights. If you wanna look like Arnold then you wanna stick with the gym and the weights. If you wanna build a little muscle, burn fat and get toned then the rack is more than worth the money you'll pay to get it. That's just my opinion but I stand by the rack. Ive had mine for over a year and still use it to this day. Hope this helps!

I don't use it at all either. I just do sweat one day and sculpt the next, six days a week. I'm down about 14 lbs at day 40 but noticing body composition changes especially in my upper body and chest.

Only if you have a short stride to maintain your balance. I'd suggest audio books so you can use your arms to alter your workout positions so you can maximize your workout. Caution, it's fun, easy, & addicitive!

Hello, I wouldn't use it for that personally. It may cause skin peeling and you would need a lot to be able to do the whole arms. These results usually don't show within the first week or so.

I have a 12,18, 24. I am male, almost 40. My main target when buying was for my shoulders. I love all of them! I use the 24 for my arms and shoulders, and it's a heavier 24 pounder that it sounds like! I can do lunges/squats with it as well. I also like my 18. It is almost the perfect all-around multi-use bar. Not too heavy, yet just stout enough to get toned-up nicely without hurting yourself! I like incorporating this bar into some sit-ups also. Great toning bar I like my 12 to take for a walk around the block and use it similar to an aerobic-class device. Great for sculpting arms, shoulders and abs as I walk the dog. For you, try something in the 16-20 pound range. You can always work your way up or down from there. Eventually you may have several as I do. I started at the 24, then got the 18, and then the 12. Remember the heavier you get, the fewer rep's you will feel like doing. So if you want the aerobic/cardio aspect of your exercising , you will feel like pumping out more rep's with a lighter bar

Hardly, Anna. I'm a 66-yr-old woman who can manage the unit just fine. Although, your arm would likely get a little tired if working above your head for very long.

I am not certified in fitness training, but I can say I've used a toner like this for years. I had my original device for 15 years before the tension mechanism snapped. It was a different brand and it was designed to be able to use the device for the legs as well. I couldn't find a replacement for the one I had, but this one definitely works for the upper body. My husband is not toned, he's 65 and has had surgery for spinal stenosis. The stenosis has caused irreversible nerve damage in his arms and legs. He has difficulty using the UB Toner because he no longer has the strength that the average man. If your husband is of average strength, this toner will definitely help him. If he's above average in strength and looking to bulk up, this device will help his upper body, but won't achieve the same results that a woman will get, mainly because your husband may need a heavier degree of tension. The tension on this type of device is not adjustable. Just as an example, if you were working your biceps or triceps, as a woman you might use 5-lb weights, whereas a man might use 10-15 lb weights. In summary, both my husband and I use this device. I am at a higher fitness level than he is and it challenges me and provides great results. My husband struggles with meeting the required amount of repetitions, but it is very beneficial to us both for a low impact toning device. I hope this helps!

This would not come close to increasing heart rate or burn calories like aerobics. It works best for getting circulation to the legs and toning the arms.

Courtney D., I'm not sure why they stopped making the one specifically for women. However, as our physiology is formed the same in our appendages, the "Flex Pro" should do the same job on your arms as it does on mine.

Combine with a wrist roller and continue your regular workout routine and yes. I have noticed an increase in forearm size and strength in a short time

i am a 64 yr old women and have always had issues with my arms, used this an the results were amazing.

Yes! Its actually a great program for women. If you need help figuring out what weights to use and if supplements are for you feel free to contact me. I have seen tons of success for women. As you may know, muscle burns fat even when you are resting. So properly building muscle is a huge asset to a female. https://www.facebook.com/beca.gingerich

If you mean using it as an upper body/arm only trainer, the short answer...yes. But before starting with any new workout regime, consult with your doctor and/or physical therapist. This way you can make the most of this machine.

Your arms and legs 'motorize' the Magne Trainer. Really enjoy mine! I saw and felt results the first week.....Good luck.

I am 61 and yes it will. It does take time and work. Start with the 6oz. bands but buy 2 bags of the 8oz. I do have the 14 0z bands but I can't use the facial flex with them. make sure you do it at least 2xper day and I count up to 120 each time.I do notice a big difference and I have been photographing my progress. Good Luck and let me know what you think. You might have a tendency to gag when you first start so just work yourself up slowly.
