Clint Eastwood wouldn't have been a very intimidating Dirty Harry if all he pulled
out was a little .22 caliber pistol to make his point. He knew that to really make
the bad guy's knees shake and the lady's legs quiver, a .44 Magnum was the weapon
of choice?!
So when it comes to bicep development, why should YOU settle for second rate pea-shooters
when you can pack some REALLY BIG GUNS ?
Let's face it, all men want big biceps. They're the easiest muscle to show off without
getting undressed, women love to wrap their arms around them when walking down the
street, and they're SMALL .
Whoa...I didn't mean YOURS were small. I simply mean that compared with other
muscles of the body, like your chest, back, and legs, your biceps are a relatively
small muscle. That's GOOD NEWS !
That's GOOD NEWS because it means that it's much easier to target your biceps for
growth than it is to take on larger, more complicated muscle groups.
So why aren't YOURS the size of softballs yet?
One quick look around ANY local sweatbox and the answer becomes clear... MOST
guys have absolutely NO CLUE how to effectively work their arms. But these 3 EASY
STEPS are guaranteed to make sure you don't end up on the "loser list".
STEP 1: DIAL THE RIGHT "FREQUENCY"
Because the biceps are a smaller muscle, and because they're used in other compound
exercises when working other muscle groups, your arms are more prone to OVERTRAINING
than any other muscles of the body.
I'm sure you understand by now that your muscles grow when they're at REST rather
than WORK . So if you keep your biceps at work by targeting them MORE than ONCE
A WEEK , you're setting yourself up for major disappointment!
This is where the "more is better" crowd will lose EVERY time! Stick
to only ONE targeted workout per week in arms and you'll give them the much needed
recovery time to pack on new muscle.
STEP 2: UPGRADE YOUR R.O.M.
No, I'm not talking about your computer...I'm referring to your muscle's RANGE
OF MOTION .
If you ever want to grow your bi's to their full potential, you MUST concentrate
on hitting ALL of the muscle fibers. The only way to do this is to take the muscle
from full pronation to full extension.
