HOW TO TRAIN “ARMS”

Arm training is composed of “biceps” as well as “triceps”. Arm day seems to be every guy’s favorite day to train as this comprises of the “showy” muscles that people love to flex.

The “biceps” as THE NAME IMPLIES, COMPRISES OF TWO HEADS (THE INNER-HEAD, AND THE OUTER-HEAD). They do not need to be individually emphasized, however, as they are both worked evenly when performing any kind of curling variation. (barbell curl, dumbbell curl, etc.)

The triceps, on the other hand make up two-thirds of the upper-arm mass and should be prioritized if big arms is your goal. “Triceps” as the name implies, has three-heads. Thus, the triceps muscle should be trained from a variety of different angles.

Examples of this include skull-crushers, pushdowns, close-grip bench press, or dips. The biceps are responsible for arm flexion and the triceps are responsible for arm extension.

A great way to pair them into the same workout is to “super-set” them by performing a bicep and exercise before immediately going and performing a tricep exercise, or visa-versa.
