Bodybuilding Workouts, How to Build Huge Biceps?

By Ricardo d Argence

If you want huge biceps, then having a good diet is a great start. Natural foods are always a good way to go if you want huge biceps, and that means you need somewhere around five meals per day. Carbohydrates are very important, as is lean protein and fat. Drinking plenty of water is also a great idea, even though it appears to be a bit counterproductive. If your body detects low amounts of water, then it will begin to store as much as possible. This is where we get the term 'water weight'.

Do your big lifts first in your lifting routine. It's believed that the big lifts like squats encourage your system to produce more growth hormone, which will help all your muscles to grow.

It would be wise to stay away from the machines and just go for the free weights. They call for a greater amount of control than a machine would. As long as you do compound exercises, your arms will get the workout that they need.

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.

Pre-exhaustion training is where you reverse the aforementioned plan. Tireing out the arm muscles first by doing an Isolated arm movement, will cause the main driver of the compound movement to work harder because the pulling or pushing power of the arms will be reduced. For example: you could do sets of tricep extensions before doing bench presses.

The idea here is that, since you biceps are tapped out, your lats will have to work harder to perform the movement. It sounds like a good idea, but, does it really work? Try it out and see what you think.

When you have finished with the compound exercise, you should move on to the arms. Arm exercises are paramount to developing larger biceps! The arms must be exercised from many different angles. In spite of that, try to avoid doing too many arm exercises.

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!

Then there's the brachialis muscle. This is a muscle that is beneath the biceps and you will need to maintain a decent balance within your arms. To do this, you will need to turn your palms down during the exercise. Note that the brachialis is the main muscle involved in flexing your elbow. If you turn your palms down, the biceps will be out of the picture and you will be able to focus on the brachialis. By making the muscle bigger, the biceps will be pushed up, and they will be more prevalent.

If your nutrition is poor then you'll never get the muscle growth or muscularity that you are looking for. Work hard, get green and eat well! - 17273
