Why Don't My Biceps Get Thicker Even After Repeated Training? It Turns Out You Haven't Been Doing These Combinations!
Who doesn’t want developed biceps? The dumbbell curl has become one of the most popular exercises in the gym.
However, many players have misconceptions about dumbbell curls, believing that simply increasing the weight will make their biceps bigger, without realizing that the whole body is assisting.
How can we measure our actual biceps training capacity?
The combination of barbell curls and preacher bench is definitely the best training method.
When doing straight bar curls, the palms face the ceiling. Throughout the movement, due to the supinated position, the tension on the biceps remains constant. When holding a barbell with a dumbbell, the wrist can rotate inward, reducing the tension on the outer side of the biceps.Barbell curls also eliminate pressure on the wrists and elbows.
What about combining a preacher bench with barbell curls?
Changing the angle of training will definitely cause muscles to work in different ways, leading to muscle mass increase.Preacher bench curls isolate the biceps to a greater extent, allowing for better muscle contraction and stimulating more muscle fibers.Preacher bench barbell curls
Performing incline dumbbell curls can also provide similar advantages, because the angle of the arms is similar to that of preacher bench curls, providing sufficient tension on the biceps, while avoiding excessive pressure on the shoulders at the starting position.
Incline dumbbell curlsIn fact, you can also do alternating dumbbell incline curls instead of preacher bench barbell curls, single-arm exercises ensure that both sides receive the same training, and both arms achieve the same results.
Of course, you can also do alternating preacher bench dumbbell curls.
You can eliminate muscle imbalance between the arms, achieving better symmetry, which is very important for fitness enthusiasts.
Correct demonstration of incline dumbbell curls
Performing incline long bench dumbbell curls is better than preacher bench curls because the peak of the biceps is on the incline bench, and the stretching effect is stronger, which is more effective for stimulating the peak, while in preacher bench curls, this stimulation is much smaller.Secondly, the long head of the biceps is subjected to less stress in the preacher bench, because the arms are in front of the trunk. The inner side is trained more in the preacher bench, but this does not mean it is superior to incline dumbbell curls.
Barbell curls
Obviously, all these movements will help to form a large biceps group, allowing you to see your workout results when you wear short-sleeved shirts. The two most impactful movements are barbell curls and incline bench dumbbell curls, which are the movements you make when training your biceps to achieve the ideal arms.
Combine barbell curls with preacher bench or incline bench, truly feel the force of the muscles, and restart your biceps training!
