Many people have flabby arm muscles, and when they wave their arms, the excess fat also jiggles, so netizens jokingly call it "bye-bye meat." Because when you spread your arms, the shape resembles butterfly wings, bye-bye meat is also known as bat wings. So, do you know how the unsightly bye-bye meat forms?
Lack of arm exercise
In work and daily life, we use our lower arms more often, while the upper arms are usually resting on a desk, resulting in a lower frequency of movement. Therefore, it is easy for fat to accumulate and form bye-bye meat (also known as bat wings).
Poor lymphatic circulation in the upper body
Due to poor lymphatic circulation in the upper body, fluid accumulates in the upper arms, causing swelling. Combined with poor blood circulation and slow metabolism, the arms are more prone to develop excess fat.
Improper sitting posture
Frequently bending over and hunching can cause relaxation of the trapezius, deltoid, and triceps, leading to an increase in fat in these areas over time, resulting in unsightly bye-bye meat.
Genetic inheritance
Postnatal diet and exercise can affect body shape, such as the thickness of the arms, but the main determining factor is still controlled by genes. Moreover, there have been studies proving the existence of obesity genes in the human body, so having bye-bye meat may also be caused by genetic inheritance.
