Bodybuilding Workouts & Tips, What Must I Do if I Want Huge Biceps?
To get big biceps you need a diet plan as well as a training plan. I'll assume you are eating a clean diet. You have to eat quality natural foods 5- 6 meals a day, about every 3 hours, with good ratio of lean protein, carbohydrates and good fat at every meal. Make sure you drink, at minimum, half your bodyweight, in ounces, of water every day.
When you begin with your exercises, it would be prudent to begin with bigger lifting. Starting out this way will help the human body to produce what is known as the Human Growth Hormone. Not only is this good for the rest of your body, but it will also help your muscles to grow.
I think using free weights over machines is better, because they will require more control from stabilizing muscles. Understand also, that when you do your compound exercises your arms will get worked no matter what.
When you are doing a pulling move, such as rows or pull ups, your biceps are getting work in assisting in those exercises. You will not perform well on your compound exercises if you do your isolated arm exercises first. Use your isolated arm exercises to finish up and polish the arms after you are finished with the compound exercises.
Then there is pre-exhaustion training. This is an exact reversal of the other exercise routine. Your goal will be to exhaust the arm muscles first, and this will make the driver of the compound movement work harder, as the abilities of your arms will be drastically lowered. If you want a good example, try doing some tricep extensions before you lay down to bench press.
Because your biceps are exhausted, the lats will need to put forth more effort. The question is whether or not this is actually a good idea. The only way to find out is to give it a try yourself and find out.
If you are finished with the big compound moves, then it's time to move on to the arm exercises to get big biceps. Hit your arms from as many angles as you can, but don't over do it. I like to do a standing curl to hit the middle portion of the biceps; a decline curl (about 10 - 20 degrees off vertical) for my biceps to get it in the stretched position; and a concentration or spider curl to really hit the peak contraction point. By the way these are all supinated, or palms up.
Try to superset your biceps. To do it you can perform three different exercises with your triceps. Try an overhead tricep extension, as this is actually pretty easy. It consists of a standing tricep pushdown.
Remember to choose a position for the day and don't just go at it haphazardly. A few examples of good positions are middle, stretched, peak, and many others. Though you'll want to do three or maybe even four supersets in a day, it isn't a good idea to exceed that. Above all, do warmup exercises before you begin so you don't end up pulling something!
There is a muscle that rests under the biceps, and it is called the brachialis muscle. If you want to exercise it, you need to have a good balance in the arms. To attain this balance, turn the palms down. Remember the brachialis is the main muscle in the elbow. Turning your palms down will expose the brachialis and you will be able to exercise it in ways you wouldn't have been able to otherwise.
Always ensure your diet is decent. Being on a good diet is half the work, and if you don't practice it then you will not get very far in your quest for muscle growth. Do a full workout, and keep yourself in good shape! - 17269
