Bicep exercises for most people are the part of their workout theylook forward to the most, as watching the bicep muscle grow and pumpin front of you.
I love working my biceps I find them easy to train and they respondreally well in every workout.
Training the bicep can differ from one person to the next so here is how I train my biceps and how I perform a bicep curl the best way thatworks for me.
Bicep exercises.
The barbell curl: this bicep exercise is the route of your bicepworkout without it you won't grow a thick well shaped bicep musclegroup.
Stand with your feet about shoulders width apart using a straight baror an EZ bar take a shoulders width grip. Now I like to do pyramid sets, this is where you start at a low weightthat allows you to do around 15 reps with not much effort, the aim hereis to get the blood into the bicep, then increase the weight up eachtime until I hit around 7-9 reps.
After taking the barbell of EZ bar at a shoulders width grip, tuckyour elbows into your side curl the bar up to your chin, now in allbicep exercises remember to squeeze the muscle at the top of the
movement lifting your elbows up about 3 inches then back onto yoursides when bringing the weight down then stretch the bicep at thebottom of the exercise, also stretch the bicep in-between the exercises,I have said it before and will say it again this is key to building notonly the bicep muscles but any muscle group.
The biceps I find are best worked out on their own, but if youare going to workout on another muscle group, I like to make it myback or abs but workout the biceps first, as they are only a smallmuscle group and will get exhausted quickly.
When doing a bicep curl with dumbbells the same principle as writtenabove applies, squeezing and stretching the bicep muscle you get thebest results.
There are loads of bicep exercises, the ones stated above are very basic but if you are just starting
out in weight training or training your biceps then make sure you
put these into your training or workout programme for bicepexercises.
