Best Exercises for Your Biceps

Best Exercises for Your Biceps. Period.

Your arms will thank you for the pump you're about to receive.
One of the biggest reasons dudes hit the gym is to make themselves look good.
If you're just as focused on your appearance as building strength and mass — and there's nothing wrong with that — there's no better place to start than your biceps. The muscles are composed of a long and short head, which team up to handle movements like flexing, and curling, that make your arms pop.
The muscles take up a ton of prime real estate on the front of your arm, and they're probably the easiest part of your body to show off no matter the situation or who you're trying to impress. Whether you rock a dress shirt or a tank top, a strong set of guns are sure to make waves.
That’s why we created this list of 34 awesome ways to work your biceps. Some of these are classics; some are new. Some are a grind; some are fun. Some hit the long head of the muscle; some focus on the short head.
Pick the ones you like (and maybe some that you don’t), and use them to pump up your arms — and fill out your sleeves.

1. STANDING BARBELL CURL

This is as basic as it gets. You've probably heard serious lifters carrying on about oblivious meatheads taking up space in squat racks to do bicep curls, so be mindful when and where you load up a barbell — but that shouldn't be an excuse to skip out on the move entirely. Barbells allow you to work both arms simultaneously and evenly, and the position of your grip can allow you to home in on different parts of the muscle.
 Grab the barbell with an underhand grip, with your your hands positioned about as wide as your hips. To emphasize the inner portion of the bicep, take a wider grip; to target the outer part of the muscle, bring your hands closer together. Start holding the bar at hip height, then squeeze your core and contract your biceps to curl the bar up to shoulder height. Squeeze your biceps at the top of the movement, then slowly lower the weight back to the starting position, controlling the weight through the eccentric movement. Make sure to keep your feet solidly planted throughout the exercise, and don't use your hips to lift the weight.

2. STANDING RESISTANCE BAND HAMMER CURL

Leave the weights on the rack and give resistance bands a shot to really reap some bicep gains. The bands allow you to work through the full range of the motion by offering resistance (get it?) through the eccentric (lowering) part of the exercise, along with the concentric (curl) lift. The hammer grip, meanwhile, shifts the focus of the work to the brachialis, a lower muscle that can really make your arms look thick.
How to do it: Step on the center of a resistance band, gripping one end of the implement in each hand. Hold the band with your palms parallel to each other. Curl your hands toward your shoulders, maintaining the position of your palms. Squeeze your biceps at the top of the movement before lowering your hands back down to your sides, maintaining constant tension on the band. Keep your elbows stable and in position at your sides throughout the movement.

3. STANDING DUMBBELL CURL

In a biceps-focused list like this, you can’t leave out the classic dumbbell curl. So we didn’t.
But we would ask that you use a weight that makes sense: If you’re swaying back wildly and contorting your body—especially excessively arching your lower back—to lift the load, you should probably get a lighter pair of dumbbells.

 Grab a pair of dumbbells and let them hang at arm’s length next to your sides. Turn your arms so your palms face forward. Without moving your upper arms, bend your elbows and curl the dumbbells as close to your shoulders as you can. Pause, then slowly lower the weight back to the starting position. Each time you return to the starting position, completely straighten your arms.

 For A Complete Shoulder Workout : for-a-complete-shoulder-workout/ One of the most visually appealing muscle groups is the deltoids or shoulder. When fully developed the shoulders add width to your upper body and create the v-taper of the body down to your waistline. The shoulder is split into three parts: the front, side and rear deltoids. Training the shoulders is different to other parts of the body in some respect as there is more to it than just creating huge cannonball delts, there is also some priority to create proportion and symmetry in the shoulder muscles. Personally the effect on training shoulders is a different feeling to other parts of the body. I can hardly ever achieve a pump or DOMS. For me the shoulders have always just felt sore and because of this it is a difficult muscle to learn about training from experience. To make sure you have all bases covered when you are working out your shoulders make sure to include these exercise...

Cardio : Indoor Cardio Kit at The Gym : How much cardio do you actually need to do to meet your goals? If you’re training for a race, you’ll have every session planned out already and will be very clear about weekly mileage, pace and distance. If you are on a weight loss journey, you’ll know how much cardio work you need in order to create a calorie deficit. If outdoor cardio isn’t crucial to your fitness or weight goals, think about why you love it so much. Once you know why you do outdoor cardio, you can find a way to replace it during bad weather. If you have gym access, replacing outdoor cardio is pretty easy. Running gets done on a  treadmill , biking gets done on stationary or spinning bikes, uphill walks and hiking can be replaced by fast walking on an incline treadmill. If you use cardio for calorie burn, rather than sport-specific training, consider using conditioning workout classes which use intervals, circuits or HIIT training. They’ll take your cal...

 Best Muscle-Building Shoulder Exercises: Which are the best exercises for overall shoulder development.We let science decide. 141 https://keranfitness.blogspot.com 17 325 The list you're about to read is based on two factors: EMG tests, which measure electrical activity in the deltoids; and an exercise's ability to accommodate load. For example, you may be able to do an overhead barbell press with 185 pounds, but use only 35-pound dumbbells on lateral raises. More often than not, then, the press is the better choice, even if the lateral raise totally lights up the EMG. We cite research, when available, but we'll admit up front that this list reflects yet another factor: our best judgment, based on many years of lifting. For each exercise, we'll tell you why it made the list and how to use it in the context of your workouts. If you disagree with our selections, or think we missed the boat by overlooking your favor...
