I'm starting a new workout plan and this is one of the main biceps exercise. I'm 17 years old, 1.67, I weight 54Kg. I hope i can get 70Kg before the summer!
The video is nice. The exercise is good but that alone won't help you build muscles it should be best with an efficient diet to go with. I do know a link of a site that gives workout plans that you could use to gain lean muscles and helps you achieve that most guys wanted the "Hollywood Looks". Youtube won't allow me to post the link but I posted it on my profile. You can always check it out there.
@Pepeusouza That is correct. Taller people have a wider range of motion and all sorts of stuff, they are more capable in some things. What I mean, is, taller people don't work harder than small ones. They can achieve more things, maybe. Work harder? Not determined by height. My point.
if one has a hernia and couldn't lift heavy weights, is this the appropriate workout since the arm is resting on the bench and the lower body where the hernia is is not involved.
@TheMaxplatt stop makin fun of people your just mad you don't have biceps or your fat eating doughnuts on your coach all day hey if u don't like the video don't look at it he's actually putting this on youtube for people like u who don't know how to do a preacher curl with your weak self
It doesn't matter if you do biceps and triceps a day after each other. If you wanna grow faster dont do cardio because youre going to lose fat already >>if you train 5times a week. Try 3days training 1day rest, 2days training 1day rest. And not to forget change youre whole training after 8weeks. ps. Personal Tr.
i am at early teen age and i do seated curl with dumbells ..i heard rumors workout can make you short so does seated curl or any other workout stunt you height growth ..and should i stop and wait a couple more years or continue?
@truthfulmind i don't think it's all teenagers though because i am only 13 but as you can see am not commenting inappropriate comments on these videos, you should think twice before stereotyping a group in society my friend
Or just do different workout for the same muscle area (diff exercises) each exercise will target a certain area of the muscle. Hammer curls are diff. to say a normal curl etc.
@niggazbeatdown1 Well as he said on the video 8 - 12 is the range most sets are. 3 sets of 8 - 12 reps is what most people aim for. The way I do it is by going up to 12 for the first set ( using the max weight I can do). Then I would do 10 reps on the second set (dropping the weight a bit), then 8 reps on the third set (dropping weight again) that is a total of 30 reps over 3 sets. Also known as a drop set (as you are dropping the weight down each set.
The way to make a preacher curl most effective is to set the seat back of an incline bench to a steep angle. 70-80 degrees would be good. Do your curls off this and make sure that the dumbell touches the seat on the way down. This will ensure a full extension on the way down, and the extremely high angle of the bench will ensure that you are opposing gravity all the way up. The muscle cannot rest. Flexordigitorumsuperficialis@gmail.com if you need a personal trainer in NYC. Good luck.
Continuing...In other words, as soon as your forearm is perpendicular to the floor, your skeleton is supporting the weight, NOT your biceps. Unfortunately, the trainer is not going to a full extension in the video. He is stopping 15-20 degees shy of a full extension. He is eliminating the very part of the range of motion that the preacher curl is best suited for developing strength in. That's because he's uneducated. All the "expertvillage" exercise videos featuring this guy are a joke.
Once again, this guy serves as a reminder that MOST of what you see on You Tube in terms of exercise instruction is crap. The advantage of a preacher curl is that it helps to isolate the biceps. By keeping your arm on the pad, you limit the amount of lower back, or shoulder engagement that might occur as the biceps fatigue (cheating). The disadvantage, is that you cannot develop strength at the top of the range, because the arm becomes a fulcrum.
That's what i use and its working so far :) i try not to do Biceps and Triceps a day after each other as i think its to much on such small muscles, i did used to try and do a single muscle everyday but found it was hard to keep at it as it was very time consuming, so splitting it to 2 muscle groups a day is better for my timetable. Train,Eat,Rest = BIG results!
@uthinkitsallover ye u wanna do cardio abit more frequently but not too much because you will be to tired to do other exercises and keep up the good work mate
If u use too heavy weight u just would not able to lift it........when u use max U can lift whis way once, u can do forced negatives...and your biceps would not get any seriously injured.....only that way we wanna injure it..... so I think that first sentence is a bullshit a bit.... Ok..maybe for the beginners it would be dangerous..cause forced negatives are rather for the intermediate and advanced ones..
is this a good workout routine i found on a site which i'm currently doing right now....
monday---chest and triceps
tuesday--back and biceps
wednesday--shoulders and legs
2 day break and then repeat....i'm doing low reps and high weight to build str....i only have dumbbells and a chin up bar so my chest and back is limited.
Hey guys, i currntly have time for 3 1 hour workouts a week, i want a nice all round upper body and back, any suggestiones of a routine? i heard its good to focus on only 2or3 muscle groups per workout and not all at once
the weight and reps you want determines what your goals are. alot of reps 12-15 is perfect to get tone.. 6-8 is perfect to get strength. plain and simple fact.
Hey been looking at your videos and like the explanations, the thing is how do you know how much weight your dumbbells should have? What I've been doing is using 15lb dumbbells and I can do about 3 sets of about 15 reps and will have a little strength left, so should I increase the weight or keep it at that, don't know what to do.
no, you will overtrain the muscle and you will not gain any serious mass... Doing too much is counter-productive... You shouldnt really train biceps more than once a week in isolation, and once as part of a back workout (generally)
Not really. You should always give 36 - 48 hours before you work out the same muscle. Muscle fibers tear when you work them out. They grow and rebuild when you rest. If you dont give them enough time to rest you will deplete your muscle. Pro body builders work out once or twice a week!
cant believe these people are trashing you for that comment. They didnt understand what you meant I think. Anyway, why would you do preacher curls one at a time when you can do them both at the same time?
I'm not sure if your comment was for me. But if it is:
I see a lot of people in the gym working out the chest and their biceps everyday and I bad for them. For a chest to grow you need to work out your back to support chest growth - just like to build your biceps and triceps you need to work out your forearm to support your upper arm.
Preacher curls are usually done both arms at once. Individually gives more focuses nothing else.
@JJSMACKS thats what my uncle told my, i used to work out everyday and get weeker everytime i whent in the gym, but now im working out 3 times a day, its just for the fact that people do not have patients.
@XMOr33skyline its true my brother in law is going out for mr universe. he lifts once a week but its for 6 hours. the rest of the week all he says to do is stretch... ALOT because it helps circulate the blood letting help repair your muscles alot faster than just resting.
@JJSMACKS i agreed with your statement right up until you started talking shit at the end. Most professional body builders workout atleast 4 days a week, working different muscles every time
holy shit, stop talking bullshit. bizeps, triceps and abs need ~24h, chest and shoulders 36-48 and back n legs 48-60h. what do u mean with pro?! its different, some of them train every day, some just 3 days/week. half-knowledge ftw!
@liroyals4 you are so VERY very clever with the words boy... erudite! ... just so, uhhhh, so very VERY clever with the English! Thanks for illuminating us all!!!!!
@JJSMACKS New people to lifting weights should workout 3 times a week doing a small amount of sets every time, if they're trying to add muscle. Pro body builders are usually only trying to maintain the muscle that they've already put there.
@JJSMACKS proffesional bodybuilders workout twice a day-take an example of arnold, he developed twice a day exercise...ofc its only for people who know what are they doing and are probably on steroids.
exercise for adverge man is 3, 4 times a week- its can be higher but you must do every muscle in that week once, not more
@JJSMACKS Depends how far you are into weightlifting. For example, a person that is a beginner is able to lift the same body part up to three times a week, while a very advanced lifter might only lift a body part once every two weeks. The reasoning behind this is because of the intensity built up and the amount of weight lifted. A person that benches 115 for 5 needs a lot less recovery time than someone who benches 315 for 5, assuming both aren't under steroids.
@JJSMACKS that last part wasnt true, they give themselves 1 day off. and nutrition is the major part for repairing, since they eat 1.5-2 times their body weight grams of protein, the body will have the necessary components to recover quickly
@TheCrossov3r That will get you much farther than, say, benching every day. When he says "once or twice a week", he means each muscle group. So many people have three day splits:
Mon: Chest, Tris, Shoulders
Wen: Back, Bis
Fri: Legs
With abs mixed in 3 or 4 times a week.(slow twitch muscles can be worked out more)
I am not here to judge this guy. But from all the comments that I read, I see that many people think other methods are more effective. But this must look horrible for "expertvillage". But don't worry, because most of their videos are garbage.
peanut, it depends on what your going for. like i stated above if your going for strength i would suggest high weigh low reps like a 5,5,3,1 setup with a good amount of rest between sets, but if your just looking to get tone i suggest 4x 10-12 with a weight that you can do atleast 10 but no more than 12 with 60sec intervals between sets.
the problem with your shoulders may be that your moving your upper arm a bit too much. try standing against the wall and curl, avoiding the movement of the upper arm. that 'burn' is lactic acid building up in the arm, which can be negative to building. a pump is just a lot of blood in the muscle, which has nothing to do with a good workout. try upping you weight lifted, so you can only squeeze out 8-10 reps. do that 3 times, and you should feel better about the workout.
wow horrible advice.. the 'pump' is blood rushing nutrients to your muscle which is a good thing, and the burn is what you aim for so you know your stressing your muscles. you shouldnt feel strain on your shoulders while curling you should do as much as you can to isolate the bicep so that its the only muscle working. work on your form
if you worked out...at alllll, you'd know the truth. by doing mild, lengthy (low weight, high rep) workouts, blood fills the muscles. when doing intense workouts (high weight, low reps) you rip the muscle fibres, and when they repair, gain muscle mass. and the burn is lactic acid filling the muscle to give you the feeling that your doing something wrong. your ripping the muscle, so the body instinctively try's to stop it. by pushing through, or not getting the burn, you can rip more muscle +grow
I have been into weight training for 10 years now and im absolutely satisfied with being 5'10 195 with an estimated 10% bf (have pics if you want proof) So you telling me i dont know the 'truth' holds no weight with me. You can get the blood flow (pump) and rip muscle doing high or low reps. If you worked out at all... you would know that high weight low rep is optimal for strength gain while lower weight higher reps are optimal for muscular hypertrophy
people please help me out...I am 5ft 8 and average weight..and I have 4kg dumbbells at home and they are nothing,I can barely feel them when I lift them,I am looking to buy 15kg dumbbells...should I go ahead? Even if they may be too heavy I could do reps until I can lift them like the regular dumbbell workout.Please help people
Yeah concentration curls and preacher curls REALLY show alot of definition fast. Ive always been strong and had large arms, but also had a small layer or fat over my biceps and you really coudlnt see much definition in my arms even though i was strong. After a few weeks of preachers it was really defined. This is a great exercise for biceps and definition, good video.

no, you will overtrain the muscle and you will not gain any serious mass... Doing too much is counter-productive... You shouldnt really train biceps more than once a week in isolation, and once as part of a back workout (generally)

is it the same for triceps ?
jack8614 2 years ago
It's not okay, your arms will get smaller instead of growing.
aajg15 2 years ago
No you shouldnt cause you need to rest your muscles, they dont grow while lifting weights they grow when you rest them.
so do it every second day. ;)
guitarkid22 2 years ago
I agree with harimaugoblok on the back training. Give yourself at least 48 hours recovery time
XJRdan 2 years ago
Not really. You should always give 36 - 48 hours before you work out the same muscle. Muscle fibers tear when you work them out. They grow and rebuild when you rest. If you dont give them enough time to rest you will deplete your muscle. Pro body builders work out once or twice a week!

once or twice a week pro body builders workout? ur a dumbfuck
StaRay09 2 years ago
cant believe these people are trashing you for that comment. They didnt understand what you meant I think. Anyway, why would you do preacher curls one at a time when you can do them both at the same time?
vinesboyseventysix 2 years ago
Hey vinesboyseventysix,
I'm not sure if your comment was for me. But if it is:
I see a lot of people in the gym working out the chest and their biceps everyday and I bad for them. For a chest to grow you need to work out your back to support chest growth - just like to build your biceps and triceps you need to work out your forearm to support your upper arm.
Preacher curls are usually done both arms at once. Individually gives more focuses nothing else.
Resting between workouts is vital!

@JJSMACKS They work out more than twice a week. They just do a different body part every day...

@XMOr33skyline its true my brother in law is going out for mr universe. he lifts once a week but its for 6 hours. the rest of the week all he says to do is stretch... ALOT because it helps circulate the blood letting help repair your muscles alot faster than just resting.

@JJSMACKS i agreed with your statement right up until you started talking shit at the end. Most professional body builders workout atleast 4 days a week, working different muscles every time
sunny123able1 1 year ago
@JJSMACKS
holy shit, stop talking bullshit. bizeps, triceps and abs need ~24h, chest and shoulders 36-48 and back n legs 48-60h. what do u mean with pro?! its different, some of them train every day, some just 3 days/week. half-knowledge ftw!

@JJSMACKS New people to lifting weights should workout 3 times a week doing a small amount of sets every time, if they're trying to add muscle. Pro body builders are usually only trying to maintain the muscle that they've already put there.
Danieltp3 1 year ago
@JJSMACKS proffesional bodybuilders workout twice a day-take an example of arnold, he developed twice a day exercise...ofc its only for people who know what are they doing and are probably on steroids.
exercise for adverge man is 3, 4 times a week- its can be higher but you must do every muscle in that week once, not more
everything else you said stands.
MeNoobYouPro 1 year ago
@JJSMACKS Depends how far you are into weightlifting. For example, a person that is a beginner is able to lift the same body part up to three times a week, while a very advanced lifter might only lift a body part once every two weeks. The reasoning behind this is because of the intensity built up and the amount of weight lifted. A person that benches 115 for 5 needs a lot less recovery time than someone who benches 315 for 5, assuming both aren't under steroids.
phillyfreak7 1 year ago
@JJSMACKS that last part wasnt true, they give themselves 1 day off. and nutrition is the major part for repairing, since they eat 1.5-2 times their body weight grams of protein, the body will have the necessary components to recover quickly

@JJSMACKS once or twice a week? are you high? That won't get you anywhere.
TheCrossov3r 1 year ago
@TheCrossov3r That will get you much farther than, say, benching every day. When he says "once or twice a week", he means each muscle group. So many people have three day splits:
Mon: Chest, Tris, Shoulders
Wen: Back, Bis
Fri: Legs
With abs mixed in 3 or 4 times a week.(slow twitch muscles can be worked out more)

peanutpeanut123 2 years ago
peanut, it depends on what your going for. like i stated above if your going for strength i would suggest high weigh low reps like a 5,5,3,1 setup with a good amount of rest between sets, but if your just looking to get tone i suggest 4x 10-12 with a weight that you can do atleast 10 but no more than 12 with 60sec intervals between sets.

Would you say a pump is necessary for growth? I get a decent burn but not a pump.
Also I get pain my my shoulders now and again when I do any sort of curls. What am I doing wrong
umyafzal 2 years ago
the problem with your shoulders may be that your moving your upper arm a bit too much. try standing against the wall and curl, avoiding the movement of the upper arm. that 'burn' is lactic acid building up in the arm, which can be negative to building. a pump is just a lot of blood in the muscle, which has nothing to do with a good workout. try upping you weight lifted, so you can only squeeze out 8-10 reps. do that 3 times, and you should feel better about the workout.
lucas545454 2 years ago
wow horrible advice.. the 'pump' is blood rushing nutrients to your muscle which is a good thing, and the burn is what you aim for so you know your stressing your muscles. you shouldnt feel strain on your shoulders while curling you should do as much as you can to isolate the bicep so that its the only muscle working. work on your form
dtru1222 2 years ago
if you worked out...at alllll, you'd know the truth. by doing mild, lengthy (low weight, high rep) workouts, blood fills the muscles. when doing intense workouts (high weight, low reps) you rip the muscle fibres, and when they repair, gain muscle mass. and the burn is lactic acid filling the muscle to give you the feeling that your doing something wrong. your ripping the muscle, so the body instinctively try's to stop it. by pushing through, or not getting the burn, you can rip more muscle +grow
lucas545454 2 years ago 4
I have been into weight training for 10 years now and im absolutely satisfied with being 5'10 195 with an estimated 10% bf (have pics if you want proof) So you telling me i dont know the 'truth' holds no weight with me. You can get the blood flow (pump) and rip muscle doing high or low reps. If you worked out at all... you would know that high weight low rep is optimal for strength gain while lower weight higher reps are optimal for muscular hypertrophy
dtru1222 2 years ago
im sure you do get a pump but if you have little muscle, then a pump is reaally hard to see, it gets more noticable after a couple weeks
sunny123able1 2 years ago
people please help me out...I am 5ft 8 and average weight..and I have 4kg dumbbells at home and they are nothing,I can barely feel them when I lift them,I am looking to buy 15kg dumbbells...should I go ahead? Even if they may be too heavy I could do reps until I can lift them like the regular dumbbell workout.Please help people
LonelyInsomniac666 2 years ago
Its pointless using 4kg if your looking to gain size. This will only burn fat.
Use a weight which you can do 6 reps minimum, but no more than 10. The heavier the weight, the bigger the growth.
Ba5im 2 years ago
Yeah concentration curls and preacher curls REALLY show alot of definition fast. Ive always been strong and had large arms, but also had a small layer or fat over my biceps and you really coudlnt see much definition in my arms even though i was strong. After a few weeks of preachers it was really defined. This is a great exercise for biceps and definition, good video.
