Workout For Energy

Bigger biceps in just 15 minutes. Sounds great, all with the promise of feeling great, full of energy.

Maybe it's the genetic legacy left to us by our hunter-gatherer ancestors. Maybe it's the misguided notion that more is always better. Whatever the reason, guys, like to go overboard accumulating the equipment needed to get the job done, from sporting goods to hand tools. This over-the-top approach also often applies to the way we work our biceps.

Building better biceps isn't about hammering them mercilessly with movement after movement - it's about working them more effectively by understanding what they are and what they do.

The biceps actually includes two different muscle groups: the brachialis and the biceps. The brachialis is the thin band of muscle that appears between the biceps and triceps on the outer part of the upper arm, and while it may not contribute much to overall size, a well-developed brachialis does contribute greatly to appearance of fullness in the upper arm. The bicep is by far the larger muscle in the front of the upper arm and the one most responsible for bending the arm and bringing things toward us. The biceps is a fairly simple muscle. An effective biceps exercise regimen should reflect this simplicity, focusing on supination and bringing the arm upward as well as developing the brachialis.

Whether you are a novice or a seasoned weight-room veteran plenty of exercise regimen should result in bigger arms in a few weeks. This choice exercise will also bring on energy.
