For me, it's my biceps - and nothing beats the pump that comes from a few sets of preacher curls. On the other hand, many people also have body parts they hate to train, such as legs, back or abs. The bugaboo for me was abs. Oh I wanted a shredded six-pack like the ones on the covers of bodybuilding magazines - but I hated the work required to flatten and tighten my abs. Then I tried staggered sets of arms and abs training and entered the brave new world of the washboard waistline. What are "staggered sets?" Staggered sets integrate your favorite body part training with a workout for one that you'd otherwise avoid training. For example, if you love to work your chest but hate to train calves, with staggered sets you'd do one set of calf training for every three sets of chest work that you completed. A sample chest/calves staggered set workout would be three sets of bench press followed by one set of standing calf raises, then three sets of dips followed by one set of seated calf presses, then three sets of incline bench press followed by one set of seated calf raises. When I used staggered sets to train my abs, I integrated my abs work into my arm training in this same 3-to-1 fashion to ensure that I trained my core. For every three sets of arm training I completed I also did one set of abs work. Since I loved training arms so much, before I knew it, my abs became flatter and tighter than I ever imagined because of the staggered sets workouts. If you want to try staggered set workouts for your biceps and abs, here's one of my favorites to help get you started. Sample Staggered Set Workout - Biceps/Abs Dumbbell Preacher Curls - 1x8, 1x6, 2x4 followed by 1 set of 25 - 100 abdominal crunches. Concentration Curls - 1x8, 2x6, 1x4 followed by 1 set of 25 - 100 reverse crunches. EZ Bar Preacher Curls - 2x8, 1x6, 2x4 followed by 1 set of 25 - 100 twisting crunches. If you've got a body part that you hate to train, especially if it's your abs, try working it with staggered sets. You may never fully enjoy training this body part, but it's a lot easier to take this "medicine" when you combine it with your favorite workouts. And if you're wanting to know how to build bicep muscle fast, then this article will give you some simple to use tips that you can start putting into action today. Most all of us want to get bigger arm muscles, but it seems that for many people, no matter how many exercises they do, their arms stay about the same size. Why? Well, it's generally from training the wrong way. Here's why. The way to build arm muscles in any muscle work outs is to add enough weight until it interferes with your form. Don't worry if you don't understand, I'll explain more on that in a moment. The way to build big powerful biceps is by lifting more weight. You can't expect to do three sets of curls with a light amount of weight and see any growth. You'll need to push yourself with heavier weights to get the results you're looking for. When setting up a bicep workout routine you'll want to incorporate 3 sets of 6-8 reps each. I use 8 reps myself, but 6 will also work. You want to use enough weight so that your form is still good on the last set. If you're using too much weight and your form gets sloppy from overdoing it, your results will suffer as well. Another thing to keep in mind with any muscle work outs is to not overwork the muscles. This includes your biceps. You only need to work out twice a week. I've seen guys work their arms 4 days a week and it's overdoing it. When you over train, you're not allowing your muscles the time they need to rest and build back. This is true for all muscle groups. Contrary to what you might think, working your biceps too many times a week will actually take away your results. MAKING ABS AND BICEPS
A lot of guys that workout have body parts they love to train. For me, it’s my biceps – and nothing beats the pump that comes from a few sets of preacher curls. On the other hand, many people also have body parts they hate to train, such as legs, back or abs.
The bugaboo for me was abs. Oh I wanted a shredded six-pack like the ones on the covers of bodybuilding magazines – but I hated the work required to flatten and tighten my abs. Then I tried staggered sets of arms and abs training and entered the brave new world of the washboard waistline.
