If you want to know how to get big biceps and bigger arms in general, then you better stop looking for shortcuts and start looking for ways to work harder. In this video, I show you a fast way to start adding serious size to your biceps but it is not going to be easy. In fact, while the technique can be implemented as soon as your next set of your biceps workout, you will need to bring your intensity..
The single best training tip I can give you to build bigger biceps is to start focusing on the negative of every rep of curls you perform. Now, it’s easy to simply say this but it is a whole other thing to actually do it. The reason why people forget to do this is because it is frankly uncomfortable if you do it correctly..
The negative portion of a curl is the part where you lower the bar back down from the top of the biceps curl to your thighs. Most lifters allow the weight to drop much too quickly here. This is a huge mistake. Instead, if you were to focus your effort on only one part of the lift and had to choose to do it on either the lift or the descent, you would want to do it on the lowering..
The key is to slow it down and fight it with a strong eccentric contraction of the biceps. Ideally it will take you a full 3 to 4 seconds to lower the barbell back to your thighs. This is often ignored for one very good reason that we don’t even realize until we stop to think about it. This is that there are no repercussions when performing pulling movements to remind you to not forget about the negative..
For instance, if you think about the lowering of the bar during a bench press you would see that simply allowing the bar to crash to your chest without a controlled eccentric contraction would likely not be very comfortable! The same can be said about going into the descent during a squat. Simply dropping here would likely take both you and the bar to the floor, with you under it!
On pulling movements like the barbell curl and the lat pulldown however the fear factor is gone. Allow the weights to drop too fast and they simply just either drop to your thighs or the stack just returns to its resting position. So, you will mentally have to amp up your focus and resist the eccentric if you want to get bigger biceps by doing the same exercises..
This is just one of the tips that has helped me to develop the arms that I have, and it is one of my absolute best tips I can ever give you. That said, there are many more just like this that I have built into my Ultimate Arms program at http://athleanx.com in just one six week program. Train your entire body like an athlete while placing extra focus on your slow to grow biceps and arms and see how much faster you can see arm results..

Dumbbell bicep curls are one of the most popular biceps exercises performed in the gym or at home. The problem is, it is also one of those arm exercises that is most commonly performed wrong. In this video, I’m going to show you the best way to do the standing dumbbell curl for bigger biceps and some other added benefits you may not have been aware of..
First we need to start by looking at what is not optimal about the standing alternating dumbbell curl. When you alternate your arms during the reps you have a period where one of the arms is resting. This is taking the tension off of the biceps for the 2-3 seconds that it takes to perform the rep on the other arm. If you are training for metabolic hypertrophy, this brief period of rest is enough to sap all of the benefits of that form of training and is therefore something you want to avoid..
The next thing is that by alternating your arms during the movement you are sacrificing a great deal of core involvement that you could be getting by not doing this. Think about it. When you curl the weight up, the momentum of the load wants to tilt you backwards and make you lean back with the weight. The only thing that helps you to prevent this is the stabilization and contraction of your abs and core to not let that happen..
If the load that you are lifting is in just one hand, you will only be having to control half of the weight. In this example I am curling 30 pound dumbbells. My core will only have to contract hard enough to control the thirty pounds. If on the other hand I lift the two dumbbells at the same time, then I will have to work that much harder in order to control the 60 combined pounds that are in my hands..
Finally, there are often times many muscle imbalances that are developed by performing your dumbbell bicep curls in alternating fashion. If you are training for strength but one side is weaker than the other you might see that your arm struggles more to get to the top. At the same time, you might find that you simply cannot move the weight at the same speed that you can on your stronger, more powerful arm. Both of these are problems but not easily seen when you are doing them one arm at a time..
If on the other hand you switched to the simultaneous standing dumbbell curl you would notice right away when the imbalance exists. Simply watching as one dumbbell was curled faster and more unevenly than your weaker side would give you instant feedback that you needed to correct the strength imbalance. Forcing the dumbbells to move together is a great way to overcome whatever disparity exists and even out the development of your biceps..
The same goes for the tension problem. By forcing the dumbbells to move together, there is constant tension on both biceps throughout the entire exercise. This makes for a move more capable of creating hypertrophy and for getting those biceps of yours bigger. Finally, the core becomes instantly more active and responsible for holding you steady when you switch to the double arm movement..
Now you can do one other alternative and that is to alternate the direction of the arms during the movement but to make sure you are doing them at the same time yet again. Here you get the same benefits of the tension and imbalance correction but you sacrifice a bit still on the demand of the abs since only one dumbbell is moving up at a time. In fact, you might cancel out the demand a bit because the other is counterbalancing and moving in the opposite direction..
Either way, the standing dumbbell curl is best done when not alternating the arms while performing it. Now don’t get me wrong, even performed this way you are going to get better results than a much more non athletic bicep exercise like the concentration curl which has you sitting down for the entire movement. If you want to look like an athlete you need to train like one, and that means training on your feet at every opportunity.

Build bigger biceps and a ripped athletic body here….
http://athleanx.com/x/the-complete-program-here.
Biceps curls are a staple of getting bigger biceps. That said, not all curls are right for all people. In fact, some biceps curls could be doing you more harm than good depending on whether or not you have a particular injury or weakness. In this video, I show you how to determine the best biceps curl for you to help you build big arms without further injuring yourself..
It is not uncommon for people to struggle with curls. In fact, some don’t even really feel them in their biceps at all. This is someone I call a non-responder and I did a complete video on how to overcome this and get more from your bicep workouts. What we are talking about here is being limited by issues in the wrist, elbow, shoulders or core..
The wrist is one of the most common sites of pain and discomfort when doing barbell curls. This can come from the locked position of the wrist and can create pain that is felt down the inside of the wrist most commonly. There are a few things that can be done to alleviate this. First, you can use less weight on the barbell curl which will prevent the torque on the wrist that can be causing the pain. The next thing you can do is switch up the type of bar you are using for the curls. An EZ Curl bar is made to put your wrist in a more natural position which should take the twisting force off of them and help you to curl more pain free..
The elbow is another site of common pain when doing curls. Here, the discomfort is felt mostly on the inside of the elbow, something called golfer’s elbow. This can be really hard to work around but if you understand what is causing it, you can. An over reliance on the forearm wrist flexors to overcome a weakened bicep is the leading cause of medial elbow pain. You can take the forearms out of the lift however by bending the wrists back and keeping them this way throughout the exercise. This applies to chin ups as much as it does barbell curls. The added benefit here is that you will also intensify the strength of the contraction on the biceps..
The shoulder can be a real trouble spot for certain types of biceps curls. When doing an incline dumbbell curl for instance, your arm is kept at your side and in extension at the shoulder. This places a stretch on the tendons of the biceps that attach around the shoulder joint and within the joint near the labrum. The position alone without any extra weight can be enough to make this a bad biceps curl variation for you. Instead, opt for things like spider curls and preacher curls which place your arm in front of your body..
Finally, a weakened core can make certain curls more painful for your back. If you find it much harder to lift two dumbbells at the same time rather than doing them in alternating fashion, you may have a weak core. Even though the lift is the same on each bicep, the total load that must be stabilized by your core is doubled in the case of the simultaneous lift. This can be worked around by doing them one arm at a time..
Tips like this help you to get more out of your biceps training. If you want to get more out of your entire workout routine and not just with your arms, then head to http://athleanx.com and get the official training program used by today’s top professional athletes. The ATHLEAN-X Training System will get you training like a pro athlete so you can look like a pro athlete..
