Awesome Arm Workout

Posted Oct 16 2009 10:01pm

Now that you know about the best arm exercises which you can utilize to build bigger arms, you can include them in an awesome arm workout. An awesome arm workout is a workout that makes driving home hard after your workout sessions. A fantastic arm workout for me should include drops sets as well as super sets to keep the arm burning like crazy. Imagine pouring gasoline over your arms and light it up!

Let’s hit the triceps first. Triceps should be the one suffering first because it is a lager muscle group and it requires a lot more focus on it. First, do the triceps press down with cables. Do around 3 sets. Moving the weight up as you drop the reps. Then on the fourth set, do a drop set. For example, move the weights down from 25 kg to 20 kg to 15 kg and the reps from 8 to 10 then to 12 non stop.

The when the triceps is all warmed up, lying triceps extensions with the EZ curl bar is next. This totally a true triceps mass builder. It hits all the three triceps muscle heads and it is a perfect exercise for mass. Take 3 solid heavy sets to really over load the triceps muscles.

If you want to get an awesome arm workout, do close grip push ups after each set of heavy lying triceps extension.

Do not miss out on over head cable triceps rope extension. This exercise can really give mass on the upper triceps as well as the lateral head. This exercise is a isolation movement there for it should be done towards the end.

After hammering the triceps, move onto the next exercise in the arm workout for biceps. I always start out by doing standing barbell curls. This is also another must do exercise for big biceps. This is because you can carry heavy weights on this bicep exercise. Do three heavy sets on this exercise. Start out moderate heavy and do 10 reps. Then pile on the weights and on the weight and do 8 reps. Finally, for a real killer arm workout, do 6 reps with heavier weights and make your biceps swell!

Then move on to incline 45 degree dumbbell biceps curls. This exercise really hits the biceps because it prevents momentum from helping in the biceps exercise. Here is a tip for getting a high bicep peak. During the top of the curl, rotate your wrist outwards.

For the last exercise to complete this awesome arm workout, do three sets of heavy preacher curls and on the last set, do a drop set. This will really burn the biceps and light them on fire. Make sure during this exercise, use the EZ curl bar and go for the full range of motion.

You can also option to do heavy standing cable bicep curls. The good thing about using cable curls is that you it works the entire bicep equally. What this means is when you use free weights, the top of the motion is always easy and the mid point of the curl is the toughest. If you use cables, the force of tension is the same throughout the motion is equal. There for you get a full development for the entire muscle.

Use this awesome arm workout for 3 months. Give full determination and you will get the results you want. You also have to eat lots if protein and carbs to supply the raw materials for you muscle to recover.
