I adjusted my dumbell routine. Now, I do minimum 25 lifts in sitting position for each hand. The left hand I do 28. My right is dominant . My left arm is stronger than right since I was doing about 20 more lifts than the right. Now I want to do 100 lifts for each arm, with each rep being 25 lifts. I also do pushups against a sink counter that is three and a half ft high. 1 rep is 50. My feet aret 21/2 ft from the sink. Make sure your sink is sturdy. Or use the kitchen counter. While sitting in the chair I lift my 25 pond dumbell over my head and keep it there to count of 50. You can do way less weight right here. I do it for each arm. Each set is a 50 count. I will do 2 sets eventually.
Never exercise through pain or discomfort. Your body will warn you. Stick with the low weights. As you get stronger you can raise the wt 4 lbs more. Then stay with that for 6 mos. After 3 years I have toned my arms which was my goal. I took it slow and steady. At least once a year do a blood test so you know what's going on as well.
