not true.
i have a problem with tossing my arms forward to get momentum when i'm not consciously keeping them by my head. its enough to make a pretty big difference.
Spluff:
That's not about the extra resistance of your arms, that is a matter of form. If you don't do it correctly obviously it's going to make a difference.
RedLion:
Huuuuuh. I'm going to need the hit the gym extra hard tomorrow and start getting rid of this holiday flub.

Technique(form) is key so this is exactly right. I would have to say when I do put hands behind my head it deffinately adds resistance.. but sometimes I hold a medicine ball when doing inclines or wear weighted gloves.. So it all depends what you are doing.

My sister went to the gym the day after Christmas. She reported that the place was packed. I'm guessing it was lots of people with the exact same thought, that they need to work off their holiday flab. I would imagine maybe 10% will still be hitting the gym after New Year's.
