oooooo my godddd. … oooooo my godddd. every different exercise works somewhat of a different part of the muscle. If you keep doing the same exercise, you’ll barely make gains, and youll plateau within like 2-3 weeks
Agreed again,bicep … Agreed again,bicep is a small muscle.A total of 3-5 sets, done heavily and in good form,is perfect.Also,we include biceps in back workout more than we think(Deadlifts,Chin-Ups,Bent Over Row,Lat Pulldowns,Cable Rows,Shrugs).Definition has to do with low bodyfat.And it is not necessary to have both a great body and knowledge like these guys.
At least they keep a good form…
Exaclty, if your … Exaclty, if your only target is mass gain, the choise of exercise doesnt really matter.The most important is to use heavier weights progessively and keep a good form.And that’s why Barbell Curl is better than Con.Curl for mass gain.You can use heavier weights.Now if you are a Basketball or Football player you must specify the exercises that work best for your sport.For example a basketball player needs more mass than a football player and espacially on their arms.
1) As I said last … 1) As I said last time, back work includes the majority of your biceps work. There’s rarely a need to do over 3 sets TOTAL.
2) Extension in your arms has nothing to do with definition.
3) In the seated curl, he says to hold your breath when you’re lifting. Now… in this exercise, each one of your arms is always coming up. The only way this is possible is to not breath during the entire exercise, which goes to show how silly that statement is starting to get.
Again, choice of … Again, choice of exercise has very little impact. If they’re using cables and you want to use free weights, pick ANY free weight exercise and go.
Choice of exercise only has a real meaning when sports specifity is a factor.
First, there is no … First, there is no “mass building exercises” or “defining exercises”. Any exercise can be either, and these terms were invented for marketing reasons. Mass and definition come from hundreds of factors, but choice of exercise is NOT one of them. You can, however, have a mass building / defining routine. This is entirely dependent on dieting.
Second, yes, you can pick to do either first. Its up to you. Follow the zigzag diet program either way.
