      I love your videos homie! GREAT stuff. I'm a graduate student in physics and it's refreshing to see an exercise-science channel that's rigorously scientific with formal references to established studies (i.e. blind and double blind experiments). Furthermore, I love the fact that you do not "dumb down" your videos but, rather, use the biomechanics of the human anatomy as the foundation for every explanation.
      Keep up the awesome work; I'll be sure to share your videos.

    I rarely ever comment on videos, but I just have to let you know how terrific your channel is, Jeff. I'm an exercise science major going into my senior year and I struggle to find quality UA-cam channels that provide scientific based information regarding nutrition and training. I am so glad I finally checked out your channel after listening to all of your podcast episodes! I will definitely be recommending your channel to my friends as the information you provide is not only great quality but also very easy to understand. Keep up the fantastic work!

Both are excellent channels.

    Hi Jeff,
    4:13 "Taking a slightly wider grip might activate the long head more." Isn't that the opposite? I was concerned about my bicep peak so I searched in the internet and what I found out was, wider grip activates the short head more and narrow grip activates the long head more (thus helps you make your bicep peak).

  • @thomas6963ify
    @thomas6963ify Рік тому +9

    If you want to increase the size of your arms, here are some steps you can follow:
    Strength training: To build muscle in your arms, you need to engage in strength training exercises that target the biceps, triceps, and forearms. Some effective exercises include bicep curls, tricep extensions, and wrist curls. Incorporate these exercises into your workout routine and gradually increase the weight you are using.
    Progressive overload: To see results, you need to progressively challenge your muscles by increasing the weight or reps you are doing. This will force your muscles to adapt and grow.
    Variety: Doing a variety of exercises will help you target all the different areas of your arms and ensure that you are working on both the biceps and triceps.
    Adequate protein intake: Consuming enough protein is crucial for muscle growth and repair. Aim to consume at least 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight each day.
    Rest and recovery: Giving your muscles time to rest and recover is important. Make sure to allow for at least 48 hours of recovery between arm workout sessions.
    Consistency: To see results, you need to be consistent with your strength training routine. Aim to workout your arms at least 2-3 times per week.
    Good form: When performing exercises, it's important to maintain good form to avoid injury and maximize results. Make sure to use proper technique and have a spotter assist you if necessary.
    It's important to keep in mind that building muscle takes time and effort. You may not see significant changes right away, but with consistency and dedication, you will see improvement over time. Additionally, it's important to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new exercise program to ensure it is safe and appropriate for you.

    My advice. Always have a barbell curl somewhere in your workout. I used to use the EZ bar only. I then just used a barbell with no weight and felt activation. I now use a barbell on its own as a warm up.
    I also when dumbbell curling curl with my palms facing outward for 2 sets. I sometimes need to drop the weight.

      @Lucas-tg3hv 7 років тому +10

      Batalha it's not that they grow easier it's that muscles grow slower the closer they are to their maximum potential and as the biceps are smaller they have less took to grow so after the first few months bicep gains will slow down very quickly

    • @TheFelipe10848
      @TheFelipe10848 7 років тому +7

      Fire What I meant is that most lifters will have at least decent triceps because of the bench press, but the same development isn't necessarily achieved by some with just heavy compound movements involving the biceps. To some even isolation exercises aren't enough. My strength in the strict curl shot up recently and there's no visible size diference, my biceps are just denser than before. Some are doomed to have small biceps I guess.

    Thank you for the video, I didn't learn a lot of new things but it's good to review the basics sometimes.
    I'm back after a three years break, but from my former experience I would recommend, a lot, focusing on the negative part. Going for a long, controled and steady negatives will bring incredible results. This is a valuable advice in any exercises!

      At last someone who understands the meaning of Training - this Channel has become an absolute farce of science - and to be quite honest the average Joe doesn't give a shit - he wants his weights and his supplements. Look at Arnold size in that Video - Did he give a shit about Science? Never Fear - Next week we'll hear about the Science of the Pyramids !!

  • @sethdunn96
    @sethdunn96 7 років тому +37

    Hey Jeff, do you have something similar to this video for shoulders? Like you mentioned that the biceps have type-2 muscle fibers, so heavy, lower rep loads would work best for them. What are the shoulder muscle fibers made up of?
    I have seen decent benefit with doing back to back lateral and bent over lateral raises (super set) of 10 - 15 reps, with 1 min or less of rest. Your thoughts or a video you have done on this?

    • @jespersschmidt

  • @Jafmanz
    @Jafmanz Рік тому +4

    I've been training for 2 years. My biceps were 17 inches without a pump after 18 months of nothing but compound movements. I've added curls into my regime for the last 6 months. By biceps grew to 17 and 1/4 inch.
    I do 6 sets per week. 2 heavy sets with an EZ bar, 2 medium sets with dumbbells and 2 pump sets 15-20 reps with either dumbbells or cables.
    honestly I probably need to do more sets but I can't help thinking that more chin-ups is the answer. the pump I get from 5 sets of 10 reps is amazing.
    anyone here had better results not curling? or focusing more on chins?

  • @ANOOPBAL
