Build Big Biceps: Four Essential Routines written by: treqio2 Everyone interested in body development works for great ‘guns’ simply because the biceps are the quintessential muscle area in body building, and can define how your entire physique is judged. It is, therefore, quite important how you chose your bicep workouts.
The biceps group consists of three separate muscles. The bicep brachial is the main bicep muscle, located on the forward-facing part of the upper arm. The brachial is again divided into the short head on the inner arm, and the long head on the outer arm. The bicep known as brachialis is found at the outside of the upper arm, nestled between the triceps and biceps.
The bicep brachioradialis is normally the bridging muscle between the primary bicep and muscle at forearm, also located on the side of the arm. These three muscles determine elbow actions (bringing the hand in toward your body, turning your palm skyward, and movement of your lower arm apart from the upper arm) and flexing your whole arm at the shoulder joint.
The optimal monster biceps routines ensure that the energy stimulus is evenly centered across the short and long heads of the brachii biceps, the primary biceps muscle. Bear in mind the biceps muscle group gets a workout every time back, and chest routines are done, so as a result biceps training shouldn’t be scheduled more than once or twice a week. This is because of the necessary recovery period needed to assure muscle development takes place.
The familiar curl exercise is the very most focused way to work for the monster biceps group, as they play on the primary purpose of the biceps muscle, bringing the hand towards the body, plus the action of controlling the barbell as it is moving away from the body.
The following are the most commonly performed curl routines for building monster biceps. Even though you may exercise on variable resistance machines for isolation exercises, almost all bodybuilders prefer to use free weights for these workouts.
Standing Barbell Curls – Accomplished from a standing point, palms facing upwards, firmly holding the bar at about shoulder width apart. Draw the barbell to your chest, and then slowly lower it to the starting position. This is a classic build monster biceps exercise and mimics the most intrinsic bicep function as well as the elbow flexion, and extension.
Incline Dumbbell Curls – Done from a lying position using an incline bench firmly gripping a dumbbell in each hand. Hold your dumbells straight out at the sides keeping a slight break at your elbows throughout the exercise, curl the dumbbells up, while simultaneously rotating the wrist to meet the shoulder with the hand, and then in a controlled reverse movement go to the original beginning position.
Hammer Curls – Normally performed from an upright position, elbows held by the sides, holding two dumbbells. With the palms facing each other, lift your dumbbells up alternating left and right to your shoulder height, and then slowly back down the action to the beginning position. Hammer curls which build up the brachialis, so keeping the elbow fixed is important, as this helps to pass the stress to the proper muscle.
One Arm Preacher Curls – Done using a preacher board (which is a support board used in a sitting position) holding a barbell or dumbells in a palm up grip with the elbows planted stably on the preacher board. Smoothly draw the weight up to reach the shoulder, and then smoothly lower the movement back to the starting position. First one arm, and then the other.
