“How To Get Bigger Arms Fast”💪
We're going to be covering how to get some big thick juicy arms and
what i do personally to grow my arms guys like
i said in the intro we're going to be talking about how to grow your biceps and
triceps so the arms and i put other videos out
in the past which i'll link throughout this video but the main thing that i've
noticed when it comes to growing the arms has been increasing the frequency and
increasing the volume so compared to larger muscle groups the biceps and triceps are going to be smaller so when we have smaller muscle groups typically they tend to recover faster and we can actually push the volume higher per session
with those muscle groups so when it comes to
frequency for myself typically i train the
arms two to three times per week so
on my main pushing days i always like to incorporate some sort of
tricep assistance or accessory work and then on my pulling days i like to throw
in a little bit of biceps and then typically i always just have one session completely
designated two arms throughout the week so anywhere in that two to three times
per week to hit the biceps and triceps is going to be that sweet spot in terms
of frequency now when it comes to volume i'm more in favor of higher amounts of
volume when training arms so i like to be anywhere in that 12 to 15 rep range uh
maybe sometimes 20 depending on the exercise sothat's where i have found the
most growth and kind of what the research is best suggesting when it comes to
arms but obviously play around and see what works best for you the last tip
when it comes to arms that i really like when it comes to training arms is
super setting so in this training footage that you're watching what i did is
actually three super sets uh with a bicep and a tricep per super set and i did
it for about three sets uh and in that
12 to 15 rep range for each exercise so we're going to get right into it
talking about the first one and my philosophy with this first superset is going
to be just priming the body with a bigger uh movement so what i mean by that is
instead of doing isolation work uh or just doing single arm work i like to do uh
more of a compound lift or compound movement for the arm so i start off by doing
i call them actually jzat presses because we already have the jm press and we
have the z press we have skull crushers and I find this moving kind of in
between a skull crusher and a jm press so i'm going to call it the j zap press
so let's make this thing infamous baby and you better start throwing these jzap
presses in and tagging me everywhere because i want to see these triceps grow bigger
than the freaking james and the
beanstalk beanstalk ames james in the beanstalk or is it jack and the
beanstalk and james and the giant peach this is awkward so we have the jzap press
okay and i did three sets of 12 to 15 reps and the first set I want to have at
least three reps in the tank the second set about two reps in the tank and then
the last at about one rep in the tank just to gauge the intensity uh we're
gonna superset that with a bicep curl uh we're going to use a bar so either a
barbell or easy bar now I use an easy bar because it's a little bit uh better
on my wrists and elbows if you're fond of the barbell use a barbell or straight
bar that's totally fine but for me the easy bar just feels a little bit better
on my joints and really allows me to hit uh the biceps pretty hard so just
going back and forth between those two movements and i'm typically going to rest
anywhere from two and a half to three minutes between each super set so i can
really focus on hitting it hard uh when i'm going through that that full range
of motion so that's the other key point here which i've talked about my other
videos we want to get full range of motion for all these exercises i really
don't see much reason why we wouldn't want to hit full range of motion working
with mike is retell the rp strength crew you know they have a lot of great information
on why we should go full range of motion so i love to hit full rom with all
these movements that i'm going to be talking about now next so the the second
of the three super sets we move over to uh some straight bar push down so a
little bit more isolation here of the triceps and we're going to do uh some
hammer curls so i really like doing hammer curls because now we're getting into
some single arm work and we're really going to hit the biceps as well as the uh
the brachialis uh in the arm so there's different muscles that we want to hit
to really kind of give that arm that full look um so when we're doing these guys
just really focusing on that my muscle connection so uh for the push downs the
straight bar push down something i really could think about it's almost like
i'm pushing myself out of a pool right where you're almost doing that muscle up
to get out of the pool when you're on the edge of the pool that's what i'm
thinking about when i'm doing these i'm really trying to push the bar down and
away from me and hit that tricep as hard as i can now on the bicep hammer curls
i'm trying to
get that full range of motion i don't want to use too much body
english or usemy hips or cheat or anything like thatkeeping it nice and strictand
really trying to squeeze my bicep as tight as possible getting that full range
of motion almost driving that dumbbell up towards my forehead just so that i'm
getting a full
c curls baby z curls once again these are gonna be for threetotal
sets for that 12 to 15 rep range typically on the straight bar push downs you can maybe do that
15 to 20 reps uh just because you're using both arms so it all depends on how
you're feeling what's going to be the best rep range for the stimulus that
you're looking for but for me i'd like to stick to that 15 to 20 for these on
the hammer curls i'm going anywhere 12 to 15 per arm lastly on tap for the
third superset for the triceps we're going to do
uh cable kickbacks now these cable kickbacks you want to make sure
that the weight is light enough that you can fully lock the arm out um with the
extension of the elbow okay so that's going to be a key one if you go too heavy
you're not going to be able to get that lockout and i think just those little
degrees of
range of motion is really going to help give your muscle the best
stimulus possible for growth and just look like a nice full belly for the
triceps okay so when you're hitting those full rum uh for this i did about 15 per
arm same thing three reps left in the tank in the first set all the way down to
one or rep left in the tank on
the third set and then we're super setting with incline
alternating dumbbell curls and I really like these for the isolation on the
bicep we can't cheat these at all okay we're keeping that back pressed against
the
bench and just really putting as much emphasis in the bicep as
possible and you're just going to alternate back and forth once again 12 to 15
reps per arm first set about three reps left in the tank last set you should
probably have one rep left in the tank now it's up to you if you want to
increase the weight each set or if you find that just due to fatigue the same
weight is giving you uh those reps left in the tank then that's going to be
good but that's pretty much the entire workout very simple in and out within 35
45 minutes guys doing those supersets getting a lot of blood to the muscle uh
as fast as possible you know just doing work not losing focus and if you do
this okay or just throw this workout in you can obviously use exactly what's in
here but you can swap things out so instead of you know doing uh the jay zapp
press because we're sticking with that you could do maybe a close grip bench
press to really hit those triceps or try a different barbell to isolate those
triceps and for any of the single arm work thrown whatever variations work best
for you but i like to start off like i said with more of a bigger compound
movement and
then kind of work my way down to more isolation or single arm
stuff just to finish out and typically i can hit a little bit more extra volume
with those movements but that is it guys if you liked the video make sure you
subscribe to the channel give the video a thumbs up and share with all your
friends on social media platforms etc uh but I hope that this helped watch the
other videos in the arm training and of course guys stay a lean mean strength
machine.
