Home arm workout: dumbbell curls for biceps

Description:	Video clip illustrating proper form of the bicep curl exercise. The key thing is to be slow and deliberate, no swinging allowed. The elbows should remain pinned to your side and not move forward or backward during the exercise. As with any dumbbell exercise, form is key if you want to maximize your muscle building efforts and minimize the chance of injury. Don't use too much weight, if you can't do the exercise slowly then you need to go lighter. Count aloud "one onethousand, two onethousand, three onethousand" on the way up and the way down, if you cant do this on this exercise then you are using too much weight. The reason this exercise method maximizes your muscle growth is because it confines the motion to the muscle you are trying to work out, if your body squirms, swings, and kicks, all you are doing is taking the focus away from the muscle you are trying to exercise. Anyone can be healthier, have more energy, sleep better, and feel better about themselves through bodybuilding. Bodybuilding doesn't have to be expensive or take a lot of time, gyms are great but home workouts can save you time and money. A cheap dumbbell set from a garage sale or walmart is all it takes to get started with your home workouts.

If you want to gain mass you need to break it down. You can start light then go heavy and the higher in weight the lower the reps. It is a good idea to use different rep ranges which contributes to muscle growth.

going slow sure does make a difference!! you feel the burn alot quicker! thanks again

no if you cant do the whole set of say like 10 without swinging the last 3 up you need to drop a weight

omg i didnt know that! -_-

is there like a body weight to curl weight... for example if you weight 150 lb curl 30 lb so that would be 1-5? does that exist xP?

i would pay you lots of money in donation scooby since im your biggest fan but im just a kid and dont hav any money yet =-)

how long is too long and how short is too short between sets????

ops worded that wrong lol, i curl about one arm at at a time keeping both dumb bells by my side, and what would be better curling both at the same time or one by one.

ill usually do about one hand at a time, and i'm wondering which would be better two hands at a time or just one, or are they equal??

hey thats not steroids

OK there is one great thing about getting older, its getting more vascular. Just kind of happened slowly with age. Helps that I have dropped in bodyfat a bit too.

it's not bed, just useless because it doesnt make you biceps work more...

only use this form if you're doing HIT(hi intensity training)

Not a certain time, depends on how fat u are and how hard you work out ur biceps. Once u get up in the 30 lbs range they start to pop out.

Haha yeah I get it now

there is no need to go up to the shoulders, it just ruins your form

Hi scooby,how long before u get those vein in your bicep?

Thanks. That really helped me.

your a fantasic role model really helpfull and guided commentary is a great touch

Thanks for this. I'm still a beginner.

yeah, well when you get a certain amount of muscle mass you can't exactly touch your shoulder

doesnt look like ur going all the way up. I always touch my shoulder with the wieght, is this bad? Or wat?
