Just about everyone who lifts weights wants to build big biceps. Having good size and shape to our arms is something most of us strive for when weight training. Building big biceps is simple, right? Well, it can be, but most people go about it all wrong. You might think this has nothing to do with weight loss tips but it really does because muscles help a lot in burning fat and losing weight in the areas you need it most. So let’s take a look at some pointers on how to build bigger biceps…

The first thing to keep in mind when building big biceps is not to overwork them. You only need to work your biceps one or two times a week. Many guys work their biceps 4 to 5 days a week and that’s too much. When you over train your biceps, you’re not giving the muscles the time they need to rest and build back bigger and stronger. This is actually true for all muscle groups. You might think working your biceps as much as possible will build them bigger, but it will actually have negative results.

The next thing you need to build big biceps is good form. Don’t try to go to heavy or you will end up putting too much of your back into the movement. You need to get a full bicep extension on your movements, but don’t lock your elbows. Doing this will ensure you are not cheating the bicep muscle.

Also, when bringing the weight down on the negative part of the bicep curl, it is very important to control the weight and not let it drop back down to the starting position. Your biceps will build bigger if you control the weight on the negative part of the curl.

When choosing a workout routine to build big biceps it’s best to do 4 exercises, 3 sets of 6-8 reps each. And you want to use as much weight as you can while still keeping good form. Four of the best exercises for building bigger biceps are: 1) standing straight bar curls, 2) seated dumbbell curls, 3) preacher curls, and 4) overhead cable curls.

Alright, that’s about all there is to building bigger biceps. Follow the tips above and you will have those big biceps you always wanted a lot sooner than you think. These new found muscles will also help you burn fat and lose weight, so you get even more benefit.
