Adding a couple extra inches to your biceps is a quick way to stretch out your sleeves to keep them from hanging limply off your body. Strong arms exude strength, power, and confidence and they can be built at home or in the gym. It only takes a couple workouts per week to force them to grow but you have to know when you're doing too much. Most guys do way too many arm exercises. The best biceps exercises can simply be done with a curl bar or straight bar. When you employ a couple secret tips to build muscle the difference is amazing.

Drop Sets to Gain Muscle Fast

Take a curl bar or straight bar and do a pyramid set of 10,8,6,4,2 reps. Do each set in perfect form right down to the set for a double. The reason for the set with only 2 reps is to get your arms acclimated to the heavier weight so that you can bump the bar up by 2 ½ to 5 pounds each week. After the pyramid you are going to do a triple drop set. Start with the weight you were able to do 10 reps with and go to complete failure. Immediately take half the weight off and do more reps until failure. Strip it down to the bar and keep going until your arms feel like jello. Now for a final exercise you will do reverse curls for 3 sets of 8 and the fourth set will be a triple drop set. Do this routine every 5 days and make sure to keep adding a couple pounds to the bar every week. You will be able to do this workout for about 6 weeks.

Proven Biceps Routines

If you want to get huge arms then don't try to recreate the wheel and experiment with biceps exercises. Use tried and proven techniques and routines so that you can save yourself years of wasted time without ever gaining muscle. You can build muscle every week if done right.
