Weight Lifting Program For Big Arms
If you talk to any one just
starting out what they would want more
than anything else, most of the time the answer is big arms.
Who wouldn’t want rock hard arms with tall peaked biceps
complimented by large horseshoe shaped triceps. You have to
find the right weight lifting program aimed at getting guns
you can be proud of.
These are the glamour
muscles and it tells the world “Hey look at me”. The problem is
that most weight lifters don’t have a very good understanding of
what it takes and how to properly workout their arms for maximum
growth. I will try to clear up some misunderstandings about getting
big arms.
Truth about getting big
arms!
There are three things,
which you must understand in order to maximize your arm workouts,
which most weight lifting programs fail to address.
1. The biceps and triceps are small
muscle groups that when overworked will not grow large. The fact is
if your weight lifting program includes compound exercises, ie:
Bench Presses, Squats, Dead Lifts, Pull ups or any of the other
compound exercises that workout a large portion of your body, then
you are stressing the biceps and triceps already.
There is no need to
include the large amount of isolation exercises I see on a daily
basis. When you continue to isolate these smaller muscle groups all
you are doing is hurting your chances of getting big
arms.
2. The biceps get a heavy workout when
you are doing the basic exercises that include pulling. If your
weight lifting program includes lat pull downs or bent over rows
then you are simultaneously blasting the biceps.
As you increase the
weight in these exercises the biceps have to grow to be able to
pull the weight effectively. Once you pre-exhaust the biceps there
is no need to start doing curls to add to the stress already put on
the biceps. All you are doing is hurting your efforts to gain
size.
3. If your triceps weight lifting program
calls for a full session of working out the triceps then here is
one thing you will want to consider. Your triceps have already
reached their growth potential for the week by doing bench presses
and shoulder presses.
Although a very strong
muscle group, the triceps are susceptible to overwork and injury by
placing too many demands on this small muscle
group.
Strong Muscular
Arms
What these truths tell
us is that getting strong muscular arms is more the result of heavy
chest and back training. This is not to say that you should not do
any arm exercises. You can include a small amount of barbell curls
and dips to you weight lifting program to help compliment your
other exercises. Just don’t make the mistake many weight lifters
make and blast your arms to the point that they actually retard the
growth. This is a sure fire way to keep your arms small and
unimpressive.
Start training
differently today. What do you have to lose but your small scrawny
arms.
