A new course is available at Weik University on building massive biceps. Those interested in sitting through an easy course, no need to look any further because class has just begun. Everyone is guaranteed an “A” for the course as long as you sit through the course and pay attention (you can...

Even though drop sets are claimed as part of the Weider System (what isn’t?), they were originally called the multi poundage system by their creator, Henry Atkins, editor of Body Culture magazine, in 1947. Since then, they have become known as strip sets, the stripping method, descending sets...

When asked about his bicep development, Arnold Schwarzenegger, who owned some of the best biceps in history, described how he’d envision his biceps “filling up” with each rep. This analogy would encourage him to keep pumping out the reps until his biceps felt ready to burst. This approach...

One thing I've discovered is that if you want bigger biceps, doing spider curls a different way can get you to those big peaks faster. Spider curls are usually done off the steep side of a preacher bench, but something told me that the biceps might get more stimulation if the curls were done...

What do Tim Tebow and Steve Weatherford have in common? Both, of course, are former NFL players now chasing down different career paths: Tebow in baseball, and Weatherford in fitness, including numerous articles, workouts, and the 9-Week True Muscle Trainer with Bodybuilding.com. But the...

If you're like most avid weight trainers, you've never given much thought to your forearms because you've been too busy focusing on big guns, thick pecs, cobra lats, or thunder thighs. That's cool. I get it. Just don't forget about your forearms. Thin, spindly forearms look weak and wimpy...

There are two schools of thought when it comes to taking training advice from the pros. Some insist that these men are, essentially, genetic mutants who respond so spectacularly to weight training that they have nothing of value to offer the rest of us mere mortals. Others agree that these men...

Larry Wheels has made a name for himself by lifting impressive amounts of weight, and not always in the form of iron plates. The professional Strongman once easily lifted bodybuilder Zac Perna, and recently he upped the ante by curling not one, but two living, breathing humans. In the video...

ALL best fitness is HERE / Shutterstock As a hardgainer, hanging hamstrings are probably near the bottom of your wishlist. In a contest, vertical-blind lines in a rear shot or half-basketballs from the side can make the difference between first and fourth, but those not planning to pose in...

I haven't run a log in a long damn time. Seeing as I'm running a new compound to me (bold) and I have some time to do a log I figured I'd include you guys. First a little background. Been into the weights since I was fifteen... I'm 37 now. I competed in the Arnold physique once just to say I did...

When I flex my biceps, I have a decent sized gap between where my bicep ends and my forearm. If I push on that area on either side it's not that muscular. Since my biceps aren't going to fill out that area, what should I be doing to make that area tighter/bigger? I've been doing hammer curls...

dennis-james-arms.jpg Photos by Ian Spanier “I pyramid up on each exercise. For the first set, I’ll do 12, then 10, then the last set I’ll pick a weight with which I’ll probably only be able to get eight. I train by myself most of the time, so I just go to the point where I feel there’s no...

Four Strategies to Muscle Up Your Forearms By Greg Merrit We regularly make the point to hardgainers that, since you’re not a pro bodybuilder, you shouldn’t train like one. Nowhere is the truth of this maxim more evident than in the flesh between the wrists and the elbows. Many Mr. Olympia...

We regularly make the point to hardgainers that, since you’re not a pro bodybuilder, you shouldn’t train like one. Nowhere is the truth of this maxim more evident than in the flesh between the wrists and the elbows. Many Mr. Olympia competitors don’t directly train forearms; some never have...

Training Biceps The Right Way December 20, 2016 By John Doe It took me a long time to learn what really got results with training the biceps and what was just ego-lifting. You must be extremely careful to protect the bicep tendons as you get further along into training and especially as you...

Would like to hear what you guys do on your average leg day workout? I always walk into the gym and start off with leg extensions than hit the leg press hard. Issue is I feel squats are a beyoitch after leg presses. Does everyone do squats? Sent from my SM-N920P using Tapatalk

So I haven't had a solid workout in 4-5 weeks for a few reasons I've switched to a new job and I just bought a house which included looking for a house to buy and all the moving. I recently left an air conditioned job shop to an non air-conditioned aluminum extrusion facility for a much larger...
