personal trainer coach Kozak and I’m Claudia and this is a muscle building bicep workout this workout uses multiple muscle building techniques that require you to have at least two pairs of dumbbells you’re going to want one lighter and one heavier pair so you can switch up the weight as needed the weight that you will use will be completely dependent upon your fitness level all right let’s get started [Music] [Music] we’re going to start off with a set of bent over spider curls so we’re going to choose a way it’s a little bit on the heavier side we’re bending over performing a nice concentrated curl we’re going to do four sets of eight repetitions on this one so go ahead and bend over feet of shoulder-width and a run at 45 degree angle let’s those palms hanging forward arms straight down now curl all the way up to your shoulders and slow and controlled on the way back down making sure to breathe throughout all about that control on this one I’ll stay up making sure to control that eccentric portion of the lift as well don’t just allow them to fly back down and if you chose a weight that doesn’t allow you to stay under control no big deal just lighten the load a little bit last one right here nice and control good okay go ahead and set those weights down look at about a 15-second break and they’re getting right back into it so throughout the course of today’s workout we’re going to mixing up the weights as we go make sure that you’re choosing weights that challenge you but at the same time allow you to use proper form alright let’s pick up those weights for that next one next set of eight again keep that back straight core tight on this one all the way up all the way down those arms that upper arm try your best keep that upper arm straight up and down perpendicular to the ground and bring those palms all the way up to your shoulders getting a maximum contraction making sure to breathe two more stay under control nice and last one right there nice work all right well down two to go have to say also silvus in my backside as well well yeah when you’re holding yourself and you’re using your lower body for foundation you’re gonna feel out there too it’s okay we’ll call that a little bit extra credit okay I like it like extra credit nothing well there you go nothing wrong with that all right here we are search that let’s get into it guys those weights back up right into it concentrate and let’s begin nice Oh range of motion all the way up all the way down throughout the course of today’s workout I really want you to focus on what brought you here today to begin with what is it what motivates you what drives you why are you working out and that’s going to be the thing that gets you through this workout because without that why last one here it gets harder to finish ah nice okay just one more of this first set of spider curls this one can also be performed with the EZ bar if you have access to it hi shaking those arms loose already starting to feel a little pump nothing wrong with that is why I didn’t go to too heavy when we got a look long workout ahead of you okay look at this last set of these spider curls and make sure you use those legs help pick up the dumbbells all right let’s hit it last set again nice and under control whole range of motion keep that back straight on this one nice really control that eccentric lowering phase no swing on this one just stay under control good you got it anymore almost there stay tough and last one here we go squeeze those biceps up at the top nice job next we’re going to do a killer superset we’re going to go back and forth between a wide grip curl and a reverse curl Plus wrist curl so we’re going to do a set of 12 a set of 10 and a set of 8 working up in weight as we go so starting with your lighter weight doing the wide grip curl so on this one really just pretending like we’re holding onto a barbell with a wide grip on that curl so we’re doing 12 repetitions all the way up and all the way down key and those risks nice and straight full range of motion all the way up and all the way down again this is going to be your lightest weight of the three we’re going to go back and forth between these two moves and if you do have access to a barbell feel free to grab it and grab it with a wide grip good posture shoulders are back on this one core stays nice and tight got three more little bend in those knees all the way up all the way down squeezing those biceps up at the top last one is right here and done good okay you can go ahead and set those down next move it into that reverse curl so it’s palms are facing down elbows are in get to the elbows or ninety degree angle and then curl with the wrist complete the curl and all the way back down again set of twelve go a little lighter on this one work up and weight as we go alright next step arms are down elbows are in so come up until those elbows hit a ninety wrist complete the curl and then finish one of our goals and today’s workout is to hit both bicep heads as well as the forearms none of these muscles are getting left behind in this one again stand nice and under control we’re really hitting an isometric isometric contraction once those elbows hit that 90-degree angle just forces hold that position for a moment while we hit that wrist curl again nice and under control not a race on this one today and this muscle building workout good the own that burn start to kick in alright that’s how we know it’s working just that lactic acid and our more nice muscle fuel that our muscles used is got to push past that burn last one I’m using a 500 and and she’s feeling it yeah this really burns all right so we can set that weight down we have our next set of 10 repetitions so move up and wait any weight anywhere between 5 to 20% you choose what is right for you and again we’re moving back into those wide grip curls all right let’s get started here in 3 2 1 all right nice wide grip control that eccentric portion on the way down making sure to keep breathing good squeeze those biceps up at the top control that negative portion don’t just allow the dumbbell to flop back down halfway through good you got it one wrap into the neck every rep getting just that much closer to your goal focus on it would you come here for today till those biceps building more an rep here it is nice and controlled last one ease and down all right shake those arms loose it’s a quick break moving back into that reverse Plus wrist curl another set of 10 adjust your weight accordingly let’s get it started here and 5 4 3 2 1 all right palms are down get that wrist curl in nice full range of motion you know is totally your weaknesses are because it gets so much tougher even when you’re using the same weight and that’s alright because that means we’re working on it now to make sure we attack those weaknesses not avoid them not going to get any stronger by avoiding them that’s for sure and this one it’s very important to keep those wrists nice and straight we don’t want spaghetti wrist as you come up on this one good one rap into the next you got it making sure to breathe and control that negative lowering phase you have two more guys fight through that burn guys right through it we’re burning to come on you got it we can feel it working ah nice last one here it is here it is get after it boom and finish strong good alright hey that was terrible and terrible and amazing at the same time how about that take those arms boots we have just one last set then this superset going back to those wide grip curls this time just for eight repetition so this time feel free to bump that weight up don’t be afraid to go heavy if you want to want to build some muscle gotta use some real way true here we are okay last set eight on these wide grip curls let’s get it three two one nice and controlled good again pretending like you’re holding on to a barbell on this once will affect your grip right you’re going to keep those wrists nice and straight pretty much helped it focus on keeping those pinkies up and curled in and not way not allowing your grip to change yeah control the way down and the way up you got it one wrap into the next come on grind through it guys almost there and you have your last one coming up right here that’s one make it count nice and control and the way down whoo all right you know good feeling good come on back keep that energy up just one more in this superset of the reverse curl plus wrist curl again it’s a set of eight going up and wait on this one maxing it out doing what you can use my power blocks for this one I love these power blocks are adjustable dumbbells now fly you to get a lot of different weights in and small

working on few more here it is almost there home stretch on this superset last one here it is finish strong ah control the way down nice work good job continuing on to the next superset we’re going to be alternating between forearms biceps twists followed by a kneeling hammer curls so again we’re going to be doing sets of twelve ten and eight starting with our lightest weight for the first set of twelve and working our way up working our way up so we have those palms facing forward go ahead and curl up until those elbows get to a 90 degree angle curl those pinkies in all the way in throw them back out and then complete the curl control the way down so again up to a 90 pinkies curl in back out complete the curl all under control breathe this one is a great time under tension move and we’re talking muscle building techniques for the biceps all about that time under tension and this really accomplishes that good making sure to breathe throughout stay focused concentrate on every little part of this move hit everyone again eliminating any momentum nice full range of motion and 12 reps on this first one good you got it one into the next come on your machine you could do this all day long keep grinding them out right here guys you guys you have two more almost their whole range of motion okay let’s hit that last one boom pinkies in back and up good okay so for the next one we’re doing that kneeling hammer curl so should be able to go probably a little bit heavier on this one we will go onto our knees and the purpose of coming to our knees on this is it really eliminates the temptation to use momentum and to swing back on this one and the knees it’s a lot harder to cheat basically right so good posture on this one palms facing one another just bring those biceps throw those dumbbells up to the shoulders and control the way back down again 12 reps on this one nice and under control keep good posture not popping them up right but instead keeping it under control you got it one rep into the next you’ll note biceps grow with every rep getting there come on getting closer to that goal with every rep everything you want is at the top of that staircase and with every rep or climbing one stair up one at a time come on no elevator up to that goal no elevator my guys just got to put in the work right here and last one last one control all right very good get those

there I’m burning too last one right here last one finish strong oh nice work nice I like it all right I’m gonna move up and wait for these hammer curls on this next one you choose that weight that’s appropriate for you again don’t be afraid to go a little heavier on these hammer curls your hammer curl should be a little bit stronger of a movement than let’s say the forearm twist or some of the other moves we’re doing today back down to the knees here we are for 10 reps you ready come on let’s go let’s go aspect Rob Roy yeah let’s start 1 to 10 reps one into the next control you got it

the forearm coming tomorrow feel free grab what you need this one for my last set of hammer curls whoo she’s going up heavy here we go all right there again these little rest periods are totally necessary if you’ve been doing some of our other workouts being used to faster pace sorry but we need these longer rest periods so that your butt muscles can recover from body building muscle building techniques that’s true okay that being said it is time to go though all right here we are curl up twister and finish the set of eight repetitions flat steady and then no more come on and it’s just that strong you got it again fighting past that burn learning to love that burn because when you feel that burn you know that it’s working halfway point that burn is the feeling of change change
