Many body builders only do bench pressing for strong pectoral muscles, but it's important to have a variety of exercises in your workout routines. 1-Seated Chest Press This works similarly to lying down bench presses, but you'll be seated with this machine.

4 Bicep Workouts For Bigger Arms

The truth is that: There aren’t a lot of great multi-joint movements, compound exercises, that target the biceps. Except chip-ups, of course . The start of your workout you would want to start with exercises that allows you to move maximum weight (activate both the short head and the long head): standing barbell curls, for example. The reason why you are starting with the heaviest load is because the beginning of your workout is the point in time when you have the most energy stored up from your pre-workout meal and pre-workout supplementation. In other words you will be able to pull more weight. Use shoulder-width grip so that you are working both heads. Include neutral-grip moves such as hammer curls to hit that brachialis muscle as well as reverse-grip movements to emphasize more on your brachioradialis (forearms).

45 MINUTES​ FULL BODY WORKOUT

This is a balanced, 3-day a week full body workout routine.  Each session is about 45 minutes.  It's a beginner to intermediate level workout that assumes you know the basics of dumbbell and barbell strength training. ​The table below shows the breakdown of the workout between the days.  It gives the exercises, the sets and reps.  Push and pull are indicated, as well as upper or lower, to show how the routine is fairly well balanced.   On the far right is shown which areas of the body are worked, with totals for the week at the bottom.  While the totals for shoulders, biceps and triceps seem much larger, they are being worked as secondary muscle groups in most cases.  At some point I'd like to figure out a more "weighted" way to represent how the muscles are worked to give a more true coverage picture.  But suffice it to say that the overall 3 day workout is well balanced between push, pull, upper and lower, with every major muscle group getti...
