 First question is from Ryan McClellan 07 to 4 What is the best way to build the peak of the bison? Oh the good old bison peak We haven't actually addressed this in a while right the whole Targeting a part of the muscle. Yeah, this was a old mindful of episodes when we came after your old boy over there Stepani. Yeah, well, he said he said some stupid shit about making your bicep longer with a preacher girl Anyway, so back in the day that they would say that you know, obviously exercises Different angles on that stuff. They all have different value right and in some cases you can work on different parts of a muscle for example with the chest because of the Multiple attachments along the sternum. It is plausible to work the upper chest and the middle part of the chest and lower chest But with muscles like the bicep or the attachments on the other end are so close to each other. There's two heads That you're trying to work one over the other You're kind of wasting your time now back in the day what they would say is well this exercise works the bottom of the bicep It'll make your arm longer. This one works the peak It's gonna make the bite the bicep a little taller here and this one works the roundness and this one does also It makes it thicker and this was all back in the in the 70s and 80s right during the kind of weeder Yeah, I think you got legs too because when you do some of these exercises You do feel more tension in a squeeze right in a stretch right and so you're like oh, this is definitely working that part I just I feel it more there which You can manipulate the strength curve and there and there's value to doing that right? So there's not not value in doing you know a variety of different bicep exercises I think there's it's very important to manipulate a you know the angles That's right right the position of the elbow and where where the most tension is on there So there's tremendous value in in utilizing it But the answer to this right is just I mean it's in order to work the peak of the bicep or develop the bicep more The best thing that you can do is to do the things that you're not doing for your bicep Is the build your bicep is the variant right? Yeah, but that's just it though right so you know if you get Here's the mistake. I made as a young young kid who was training a lot of biceps because I care I wanted this right? You know I got really good at doing these you know alternating dumbbell curls I mean I did that and like a machine preacher like a Thousand times over and watch my strength get better and better and better and I'm like oh I'm really strong in this area, but then I didn't really notice my biceps develop any more Well, one of the worst things that I could do in that situation is to keep doing those same exercises all the time In hopes that it's going to continue to show progress in the size or the peak of my bicep The best thing that I could do is to learn other variations of bicep curls and different elbow positioning Which would manipulate and change the strength curve that was the best thing that I could do to develop my bicep Yeah, the exercise that they said back in the day that worked the bicep was your concentration curl, right? Anything where the tension is at the squeeze of the exercise now There's value in that but it's not working the peak of the bicep any differently than Exercise where it maybe felt more at the stretch like a like a preacher curl even like an incline curl The reality is if you want a good, you know complete bicep workout look at elbow position and look at tension, right? So I like to pick exercises where my arms are by my sides traditional dumbbell curl barbell curl Maybe one where elbows in front of me There's your preacher curl and maybe one where an elbow is behind me like a drag curl or an incline curl And then your full range of motion You chin up, you know something going through the entire range and you're getting Tension with the throughout the entire muscle so underrated right? Apollo palms like a supinated grip Chin up where you're squeezing the biceps and a lot of people aren't strong enough to do this Yeah, but if you are super intense, it's so underrated as an incredible bicep exercise In fact, it's one of the best bicep extra. It's a compound exercise for your biceps That's one of the best ones that I can think of but yeah, you can't With the biceps, you can't focus on the peak or the bottom or length You can't lengthen it or shorten it the attachments are where they are You can get make it bigger or smaller, but you can't change the that's what that's what what's what happened We do too much mirroring time They don't even know They don't even know
