Complete Guide to Bigger Arms - Workout and Tips for Bigger Biceps and Triceps





Build Bigger Arms Fast



Okay, you want to have bigger arms, that is why you are reading this article. Arms are one of the body parts that we first notice on someone who lifts, especially on summer, with the shirt on or off. Most beginning lifter starting going to the gym to lose some fat and pack on a few pounds of muscle especially on their triceps and biceps.





To be honest, there is nothing so impressive than having huge and muscular arms. Every guy in the gym wants it and ladies like to see them too. Maybe that is exactly the reason why are you looking to get bigger arms. To be noticed by lifters in the gym and especially by ladies.




What are you going to need to get bigger arms fast?


- Hypertrophy training
- Muscle-Building Diet
- Rest




To build bigger arms you will need to use the right exercises. You won't build bigger arms by training on machines, that must be clear. You need to lift heavy iron to make your triceps and biceps get bigger and stronger. 



I recommend a workout starting with barbell exercises which allow you to lift heavier weights, and then isolate your arms muscles with dumbbells. Also, to build bigger arms fast you can do supersets.

For those who don't know what are supersets, supersets are performed when two exercises are performed in a row, without a pause between them.



High volume workouts and supersets are key to bigger arms. 




For example, if you are planning to do both arms muscles, triceps and biceps, on the same day you can perform a superset of biceps curls immediately followed by triceps extensions. Combine a biceps exercise with a triceps exercise. A typical superset often includes targeting two different muscle groups. 



This rule for supersets can also work for other body parts like Chest and Back, Quads and Harmstings but they can also work for the same muscle group.





WORKOUT FOR BIGGER ARMS:



4 x Superset 1:


Barbell Biceps Curl, 10 - 12 reps
Barbell Triceps Extension, 10 - 12 reps



4 x Superset 2:


Dumbbell Curl, 10 - 12 reps
Triceps Pushdown, 10 - 12 reps



4 x Superset 3:


Hammer Curls, 10 - 12 reps
Dumbbell Kickback, 10 - 12 reps



 4 x Superset 4:


Incline Dumbbell Curl, 10 - 12 reps
One-Arm Triceps Extension, 10 - 12 reps




Exercises for Bigger Arms



That is it, 8 exercises combined in 4 supersets that will help you build your arms muscles faster. You should also add one forearm exercise performed for 4 sets of 12 reps to have a complete arms workout.

Best Exercises to Build Bigger Arms




workout for bigger arms




   There is no any guy in the gym that does not want to have big arms, that is for sure. Arms muscles, Triceps and Biceps, are something that most guys in the world want to have. They are great to be showed under T-Shirt or if you wear Vest on summer and many girls would like that and guys will notice your big arms too. But first, you need to put effort before that.


But, many guys making a mistake training arms in every workout day, that is not good if you want to make your Triceps and Biceps very big. You must know that even on your Back Workout Days you are training your Biceps by doing Pull Ups, Pull Downs, Bent-Over Rows (Try underhand grip for better biceps gain) and you are training your Triceps on Chest Days by doing Bench Press, Dips and other Chest exercises. 




You can even build huge Triceps and Biceps with only Chest and Back Workout Days without any isolation exercises for arms. Some guys swear that their arms grown by doing a lot of pull-ups and bench presses.




So, try to focus more on compound exercises that you do for your chest and back muscles and add two to three isolation exercises for biceps or triceps for muscle gains. Perform exercises for arms with 8 - 12 rep range and 4 sets. Also, you can add one training day only for arms beside your arms training on chest and back days, add some supersets like doing triceps exercise 8 - 12 reps and continue with exercise for biceps with the same number of reps without rest between two workouts. You might also need to lower the weight for that second workout because you will be tired from the first one. Supersets are great for muscle gains.




BEST EXERCISES FOR BIGGER ARMS:

       1. Pull Ups/Chin Ups
       2. Bench Press (Narrow Grip)
       3. Dips
       4. Incline Dumbbells Biceps Curl
       5. Barbell Biceps Curl
       6. One Arm Triceps Extension
       7. Hammer Curls
       8. Skullcrusher with EZ bar
       9. Overhead Barbell Triceps Extension
      10. Push Ups



This is a list of compound moves and isolation exercises that are good for building bigger arms so you can perform some of them on your Chest and Triceps day or Back and Biceps day and also on Arms Training day, that is your choice.
