I have a Home gym set which includes dumbbells, a pull up set and bench press, the bench isn't wide enough for my shoulders and i don't feel comfortable using it., what's a great workout using dumbbells, I want to buff up alot as i'm training to be a pro wrestler.
Great exercise but I think every workout video is misleading. With enough food and steady lifting anyone can put an inch on there arms in time. The problem with people is they are too worried with quick mass and don't realize size takes time.
Can any one vouch for this guys legitimacy? or this work outs legitimacy? I'm willing to do it i just don't want to work out on this and find out its been a waste of time.
this work out here definately is one of the most effective ways to do curls. i go to the gym every day, and i have never done anything as effective with dumbells as this
crap dude... i like your techniques and theories, you sure know your stuff. do you have any other exercises? i need help developing my pecks, I dont know why, but for some reason my bottom chest just sags down, could it be coz of fat tissue or is it just because im not working my lower chest hard enough?
chances are good that it's a combination of stored fat and genetic makeup. I'm not Darin, but if I could suggest something, I'd say work on big compound movements (ie, BB Bench, DB bench, incline, etc) to develop your chest overall. I think "lower pec development" is somewhat misleading. Just keep developing your overall chest and check your diet and you'll be good to go man.
mate iv started a new workout today from the The Art of Waterbury website and have changed my hole diet to the 5 meals a day, although i do think i was getting enough protein, how do u find out what yr max rep is and
and how do u workout out how much energy u need and what fat i eat to get it?
is it best to take whey with water, milk, rice milk?
and can u tell me because iv been doing the same exercises for a while but lifting heaveir weights each week but not growing, is this because me body has adopted to my routine?
r u going to the max weight that u can to do a few sets with ten repitition, also are u eating enough to fuel ur muscles allowing them to grow like bodybuilders do offseason is eat alot
i dont know y these guys put these on because when u email them and ask them a question they never ans ya they just want yr money, instead of helping people who are stuck at 1 level
how many sets is to many i've heard 3 to 5 is standard but i also heard of people doin 10 to 12 i'm trying a new thing where i give my arm a goal say 70 reps i'll start lifting til my arm gets tired rest 1 min and continue til i reach my goal and switch arms is this a good idea or bad
If you are a beginner and you are deadlifting, squatting, benchpressing, barbell rowing and military pressing you wont need any bicep curls because your whole body will grow as a whole.
i suggest you use a stool or a chair of some sort to help you get up and then go down slowly and while your going down ignore the chair and go to the floor
They need to change the title of this video. Noway on earth will doing that exercise put a full inch on your arms.
I've done this exercise in the past and it gives you a good pump. But, if you want mass, you would be better of doing heavy barbell or dumbell curls. Prehaps put this movement in at the end of your bicep workout for a better pump!
Everyone thinks they have some special formula for building bigger arms and almost always fail to talk about genetic potential and body types. They almost never mention nutrition for building muscle. Don't believe that any single exercise can pack on size.
why are you guys whining about what a crap excersise this is? Every person is different and responds different, for 1 person this will be great! the other person might feel nothing. Try to know stuff before your commenting about it, its makes you look like a fool...
to all uu little winey bitches who go to the effort to watch these vids then say shit about how you already know everything in the video like your ronnie coleman or jay cuttler, go eat the mandick you pathetic faggets.bet the hater comments are from you zit face teenage fags who think their pros benching 40kilos and shit lolz youse wouldnt know proper technique to save yourselves
what a load of bollucks, ive been doing normal bicep curls standing up and sitting down and they work much better than this shit, thanks for wasting 2 minutes and 21 seconds of my life !!!
lmao wow... the standing concentration dumbbell curl.... it's really not that hard to do and most beginners start doing that naturally you FUCKING IDIOT!!
One tip: You never need dumbells, you just need a backpack and a lot of extra books to stuff in. This can be used in so many different ways, it makes the gym membership look silly. Also, a basketball replaces a medicine ball for off-balance pushups.
I'd agree sport and outdoor excersise is far preferable to locking yourself in a gym all day, but you'll never be able to target areas for muscle growth like that - not properly or efficiently. Even by sticking with press-ups people end up with oversized triceps - and once your triceps are too big it makes biceps/pecs even more difficult to target. Bags of sugar etc don't really do the same job as dumbells. Having said that I am about to run to the park and do some pull-ups on the monkey bars...
Try doing barbell curls with your back against a wall.
The best bicep excersise ever is...... put a long bar on a floor pulley, lay flat on your back with your feet braced against the pulley machine and curl. You can also do this on a row machine
Good . But I lost over 30 lb in one month using weight loss plan from LSWEIGHT(.)INFO
but you are, because regular gas is so expensive and it's only going to get more expensive since it's running out. br/then again, the real problem with? e85 is that people aren't using it and since no ones using it, it's hard to get it refined and usable.
If I was to lift most of the way up, not actually touching the chest, and lower it almost all the way down, wouldn't my biceps get a deeper burn because I'm not allowing them to rest? Which would shred the muscles more resulting in bigger stronger biceps? Or is the resting unique to this specific exercise to get a bigger peak?
when i train biceps,i do standing barbell curls,concentration curls,preacher curls,standing alternate dumbell curls.4 sets each 6 to 10 reps.ive been doing this routine for 6 years switching up every other routine using only dumbells one day and the next bicep day all bar movements.and my biceps are 21".
This video is very helpful, considering that I just performed the exercise while watching the video. However you cant really add an inch to your arms without working your tricep muscles, unless your on the juice...
It depends on your goal. If you're seeking to gain muscle mass, aim for 8-12 reps. If you gain strength for sports like arm wrestling or power lifting, etc., aim for 4-6 KILLER reps.
P.s: These rep range work especially for ectomorphs, so be sure that you know your body type. GL mate!
masturbation will build your forearm but other than that you can do forearm curls with a dumbell. you let the dumbell roll down to the end of your fingers and bring it back up into your palm
this may be a good bicep exercise, but it's not 'the best exercise'. For that, I'd have to give it to barbell curls...best mass builder, or for those of you who are worried about one arm doing most of the work, standing dumbbell curls
he looks like john cena u cant c me!!

Yes this is an excellent way to work your biceps. I used to do curls standing up straight but my form suffered and my biceps wouldn't burn.
Also, my wrists used to hurt but using this form (actually a very similar one) doesn't hurt my wrists at all and burns the hell out of my biceps.
Great excercise =]

If you can lift something 70 times its not even a workout. Lift heavy or go home.
Do 8 reps in 5 sets , than when you feel comfortable go up a bit with what you are comfortable with.
lifting 15 kg isnt gonna make you good at lifting 16kg .
the art of bodybuilding is to lift so heavy that the body finds it hard to do, so the muscles respond by growing, allowing you to lift more.
so the more pain you go through the more growth
