You can NOT hit one head of the bicep and not the other it's physically impossible. just do curls period in good form your biceps will grow it's that simple. bend at the elbow bring up the weight and lower it slowly and all heads of the biceps will grow it has no choice. don't believe me. try flexing your bicep and see if you can flex the long head without the short head activating and vice versa. you can't they both work in unison. the only thing you can do extra is hammer curls because it hits the brachialis which is a separate muscle from the biceps. 3 sets 8-12 reps of standing or seated dumbbell curls along with 1 set of 8-12 reps of hammer curls and your biceps will grow and it'll grow in the shape that your genetics allow nothing more nothing less. you can not build a peaky bicep you can only build what your genetics allow shape wise. all you can build is size.

Great Video! Have not watched one of the videos in while, but I really like the New Narrator. and I really, really like how he gets straight into it and keeps it short and sweet. I think one of the reasons that I had not watched one of the videos in a while is because the videos were constantly getting longer and longer. And don't get me wrong, the information in the longer videos were always quite informative. But sometimes I think it's better to have the comprehensive info in a separate video, and then have the videos such as this one for those who want to get right to the exercises.

Does training frequency affect muscle growth?
For example let's say I'm doing 12 sets a week of isolation exercises for the biceps
If i divide them on 3 days (4 sets per session)
Will that increase muscle growth because of the increase in frequency?
Or will it decrease muscle growth as the decrease on the amount of work may not provide enough stimulus to make the muscle grow
Or will it not matter as along as the total volume is equal?
Specially for a beginner

Curls get the girls - Checking egos at the door is the best advice. Once I lightened the weight, used a slower tempo with a 1sec squeeze, and worked in 12-15 rep range is when I started seeing the most development. I get great pumps from dB and EZbar Spider curls. Great content always!

These are no doubt amazing exercises to focus on different parts on the muscles. But unfortunately many of them(if not all) are not easy to incorporate progressive overload. And whenever I choose exercises, I choose those that are also easier to increase the load gradually

I'm having a little bit of pain in my left elbow when i do dumbbell curls. I try not to overdo it on the weight as i get no results from overdoing it, and don't want to risk injury. How can i prevent or lessen the elbow pain?

I've been doing exercises like these for a good portion of my fitness journey since I began. My question to you guys or anyone on here today is how many of these should I do in a session?

-Cheat reps- are just ego lifting.
You can avoid this by doing a secondary workout at home where you won-t get caught in the trap of trying to impress others in the gym
