In the gym, the arms are more worked out, then the chest or other parts of the body. Since guys want the sleeves of their shirts to fit a little tighter, they will work them to death. It feeds them a sensation of assurance and the females apparently like a guy with large guns coming out of his shirt.
Today, I will tell you how to exercise your biceps, which is actually two muscles that are connected at your elbow, and run up and under your shoulder muscle.
The most basic exercise is the barbell or EZ-curl bar standing curls. Stand with either a straight bar or EZ-curl bar with your feet shoulder width apart. You need to take an underhand grip about shoulder width apart also. I suggest looking at yourself in a mirror to make sure that your wrists, elbow and shoulders are always in a straight line. This will help you learn proper form.
Start with the bar full extended, and raise the bar up to your chin by curling your arms up, but keeping your elbows still. At the top of the movement, squeeze your biceps to get a strong contraction. Make sure to keep your wrists locked the entire time, because if you let your wrist bend, you can easily hurt yourself. This is the main exercise for building mass in the biceps. I would do this exercise first in my workout, and use heavy weights. Remember to always warm up with a lightweight for one or two sets before going heavy.
I recommend doing Alternate Standing Dumbbell Curls second because you can still use heavy weight. This exercise will really add to the rounded shape that you want in your biceps.
The same motion is used as in bar curls but one slight variation. At the top of the movement twist your hand so that your pinky moves up a little higher than your thumb. Try practicing it with no resistance. This is what will give you that extra peak that all the pros have. Its hard to do, but it will add that extra edge to your guns that your friends don't have.
If you really want to isolate the muscles in your arms and give them a real workout, try the Preacher Bench Curls with an EZ-Bar. You will notice you aren"t as strong as you would like to be in this exercise if you are isolating your biceps. If the first two sets of reps have been completed properly, you will feel muscle fatigue.
Dangle your arms across the angled pad, while pressing your chest against the workout bench. Grab the EZ curl bar with an underhand grip. Curl the weight up and contract your biceps as hard as you can. Lower slowly, being careful not to let the bar stress your elbows at the bottom of the movement. A good exercise that will place added stress on your lower biceps area.
The above program is only part of an overall fitness plan, you can visit my site if you want to know more about it.
