Bodybuilding Workouts To Get Huge Biceps

By Ricardo d Argence

The arms are probably one of the most often trained body parts, other than chest, in most gyms today. Guys will work them to death because they want the sleeves of their shirts to fit a little tighter. It gives them a sense of confidence and the females obviously like a guy with huge guns popping out of his shirt.

Now I'll instruct you in the way to work out your biceps, which are simply the pair of muscles that connect at the elbow joint and extend upward to your shoulder muscle as well as under it.

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.

A great was to start is with the bar full extended then raise the bar up to your chin by curling your arms up but keep your elbows still. To reach maximum contraction, flex your biceps at the peak of the movement. You must keep your wrist locked all the time otherwise if you let your wrist bend, this can easily hurt you. This is the main exercise for building mass in the biceps. Put this exercise at the beginning of your routine, using heavy weights. Its best to always warm up with a lightweight for one or two sets before going heavy.

If you want to use heavier weights the best exercise you can implement in your routine is alternate standing dumbbell curls. This exercise can be really useful to shape up 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.
