Bodybuilding Bicep Workout
June 24, 2008
Let’s face it, big biceps are very sexy on both men and women. When you’re out with your friends and you tell people you’ve been working out, they will always ask you to flex your biceps! It’s kind of a measurement of how powerful and muscular you are. If you have big biceps, think of how good you’ll look in the summer wearing a tank top or cut-off sleeves! Now imagine your big biceps with a tan! Definitely an eye-catcher.
Big Biceps Along with chest and back, bodybuilders have always considered massive arms to be the most impressive body part, a measure of outstanding size and strength. When people look at photos of bodybuilders, their attention is usually drawn to the biceps. In order to have impressive arms, you need to work hard at it, which means breaking the muscle down into separate categories and making sure that each gets its share of hard training.
Building Big Bicep Workout
To build a huge Bicep muscle the major exercise is curls, the main stance for this is feet slightly apart, back straight and shoulders back, when curling the bar it is important not to flex the wrists but to concentrate on a full range of motion from the bar resting against your thigh to it coming up under your chin, the better you become at holding this position without trying to swing the bar as to flick and help with the weight the more your Bicep exercise will build the muscle.
When you progress you will have many different Bicep workout routines they will involve many different muscles such as your forearm you will also be twisting your wrist this helps develop a thick forearm muscle as well as building Bicep mass alone.
Bicep Injury - Injury During Exercise
A bicep injury can happen when a bodybuilder’s bicep muscle has been worked or strained too hard, especially when one lifts in poor form. There are two common types of bicep injury, the first being a tear of the bicep tendon around the shoulder area, and the second a tear of the bicep muscle around the elbow. A tear of the bicep tendon is common in older individuals, who are susceptible to arthritic changes. The second bicep injury, a tear of the muscle proximate to the elbow, is more common in bodybuilders.
Attempting to lift heavy weights with a muscle that is not correctly warmed up makes one prone to this muscle damage.
Get Bulging Biceps in 14 Minute Workout
Bulging biceps can be accomplished by doing some very simple exercises everyday for only 14 minutes. These exercises include barbell curls, cable curls, curl bar preacher curls, incline dumbbell curls, and hammer dumbbell curls.
Drop-setting is a technique used to build the most unbelievable biceps. If you long to have bulging arms then you should learn this technique. A drop set can be performed by lifting a weight that you can barely lift in repetitions of 10 to 20. When you complete the last repetition then drop the weight you are lifting by 5 to 10 pounds and then do another set of 10 to 20 repetitions. When this set is complete then you will drop the weight and do it again. As you do each exercise, there will be no resting in between sets during your 14 minute workout.
Bicep Workouts for Quickly Building Big Muscular Biceps
Secret Tip
One final tip I have for you is the theory of muscle fascia stretching, which bodybuilders have been exploiting for years – either knowingly or unwittingly. After I’ve had a really good bicep workout and gotten a huge pump, I then pretend I’m holding a barbell in the curl position at full contraction, and I squeeze my biceps at tightly as possible for 30 seconds. This is absolutely killer; and you’ll hurt, and want to stop after about 15 seconds, but hold it.
This will make your pump even bigger, and if you rest for 30 seconds to a minute and then go at it again, for a total of 3 times, you’ll have muscular fatigue and a pump in your biceps like you’ve never had before.
