Burn Fat Without Dieting

If you ask any one just starting out what they would want more than anything else, most of the time the answer is huge arms. Who wouldn’t want rock hard arms with tall peaked biceps complimented by large horseshoe shaped triceps?  If you want to get noticed then these are the show off muscles that will get you noticed. The problem is that most weight lifters don’t have a very good understanding of what it takes to properly workout their arms for maximum growth. To get those impressive guns you need to follow the right overall  training routine. Building big arms and packing on the muscle is not as hard as you think it is. It’s all about choosing the correct weight lifting program.

Arm training, the truth

There are three things, which you must understand in order to maximize your arm workouts, which some weight lifting programs fail to address.

1. The biceps and triceps are small muscle groups that when overworked will not grow large.The fact is if your weight lifting program includes compound exercises, ie: Bench Presses, Squats, Dead Lifts, Pull ups or any of the other compound exercises that workout a large portion of your body, then you are stressing the biceps and triceps already. Isolation exercises aren’t really neccessary if you are already doing these compound exercises. When you continue to isolate these smaller muscle groups all you are doing is hurting your chances of getting big arms.
2. Any pulling exercises are giving your biceps a heavy workout. Bent over rows and lat pulldowns are not only working out the back but are hitting the biceps hard. As you increase the weight in these exercises the biceps have to grow to be able to pull the weight effectively. Your biceps are so fatigued after all the heavy back training why would you need to do barbell curls? All you are doing is hurting your efforts to gain size.

3. Consider this when you are getting ready to perform a full tricep workout. By doing bench presses and military presses you have stressed the triceps plenty for the week. The tricep is a very strong muscle and can take a lot of stress but if you exercise it to often it won’t get big the way you want it to.

The fact is that doing a lot of individual exercises for our biceps and triceps will not get your arms as big as doing compound exercises. This is not to say that you should not do any arm exercises. You can include some barbell curls and triceps pushdowns. Just remember that these are small muscle groups that don’t need as much training as the larger muscle groups. This would result in what you have now, small arms..
