You're Training Biceps WRONG Backed By SCIENCE!

You're Training Biceps WRONG Backed By SCIENCE!

video description

Rating: 4.5; Vote: 2
Ready to learn the exact exercises that are guaranteed to get those biceps growing? The first thing we had to cover in this video is why the incline dumbbell curl isn't a great exercise for the long head of your bicep. I saw quite a few comments about how I wasn't factoring passive tension and that's why it's a great exercise but as you'll see in the video we put that to rest. We also picked my favorite exercise based on all the testing for the brachialis and short head. For the brachialis, I found that you're really able to isolate it and almost completely inhibit your long and short head when you do concentration curls with a pronated grip. For the short head, you really have to work to get some sort of isolation but when you do a curl with your arm on a high-incline bench and you add external rotation with your shoulder turns out you can do it.

Definitely want to see more!
One thing id love for you to go deeper into thou regarding the stretched muscle part thou: If we assume that force is what we need to increase to build greater muscle mass, wouldnt we want to build it across the entire muscle chain, from weakest to strongest? as in increasing load on the weakest position should increase muscle mass to greater degree rather than in a safer span of movement? And if that is so, should we have different weights and movements to draw benefit of those weaker stretched positions? Would we see any increase in muscle gain both directly, but also indirectly by creating a stronger base to build upon from which you can push yourself even harder without the risk of injury? Would be very interesting to see how a beginner/intermediate exerciser would progress with such a concept.
Thanks for making interesting videos! We need more of this

I saw the video you were speaking about, I think you adequately addressed it, and I think I understand most of the things said between your perspective and the other. Which is pretty good considering how slow I am. But I do think you should continue because no one else is digging into it while showing application from the research to the gym, the way you are doing it. For sure some is over my head but ill repeat the videos, it helps me to decide how to budget energy on the most effective exercises. The ones that help me feel a better connection can really make the difference, not just for numbers but for stability and endurance strength and injury prevention. So keep it up, hopefully God continues to bless you.

Dude. This explains a lot of things. 15 years of training and a freakin' lagging biceps, tryinh everything in the book and i've always thought incline dumbbell curls to be a waste of time cause I used to end up feeling nothing except my hyperextended shoulders and also those freaking spider curls that did nothing for me as well as hammer curls. Instead, i've always loved concentration curls (that everyone on the internet advised not to do) and cable curls exactly the way you did in this video. Thanks a lot, dude.

I really appreciate these videos! Thank you for this. BUT can you please clearly show and record proper video of which exercise is better for which part of the muscle. Right now there is so much more rambling than the informative part of the video.
Can you at least summarise your findings at the end because it's extremely hard to understand what you're trying to say/show when you are taking and switching topics so fast. (at least for me )

reply

Could the difference in expectation and outcome be due to the sensor being fixed to the skin and the muscle moving under it?
Like moving magnets past from each other, there s an optimal point where magnetism is strong, but the rest of the motion it s weaker - so as the muscle contracts away from the sensor, the signal is reducing?
That said I m a dumbass and know nothing about how to measure muscle stimulation whatsoever!

Fascinating video and really like your style jock head with wicked knowledge and understanding delivered in a smart ass way that actually drives the message home. I d love more info and approaches to target specific muscle groups that actually works. I m plus 60 so body mass is not my objective but building strength and not losing muscle mass is my goal. Thanks!

Does this reflect the quality of the exercise or your ability to perform the exercise. You're obviously well trained and well experienced, so what i'm asking is, would a diferent person with different level of experience and muscle development have different results with the same exercises? English is not my first language so sorry if there's any typos.

Glad you are looking for drywall
All that insulation is pretty bad to have exposed. Essentially you are breathing millions of little glass fibers which make you re lungs bleed.
I work construction and I ve breathed said insulation. Not fun. Hope you get some drywall soon my dude

Couldn't agree more with most of the comments already made. Your content is awesome and no one else is doing what your doing but I'm sure we will see others copying it shortly.
Love the great comedic content as well. It's like body building and Carrot Top met and had a baby. lol

Keep these coming Ryan; after four decades of lifting I can say that I've found a lot of the things that your talking about to be true, like fixing that arm in front a bit and rotating externally for bicep short head. So, yep, let's keep plugging wires into your body. for Science!

Thanks for making these videos. I truly appreciate learning from your efforts. If asked for my opinion, ( I know you didn't ask, my only comment is that you talk really fast. You could probably spread one of your videos into three videos. Otherwise, great information. Thank you.

Little Rock. The beard it's shorter. I kept listening to the science coming from your mouth, but there was something different. Need to work on my focus skills. Keep the science coming. I'll make adjustments to my work out and we will see the results. Thanks you!

What about isometric holds with extended elbows? Like gymnasts train in rings and so. Gymnasts have huge biceps and usually don't really train them with curls.
I love the twist that this research is making to your content, keep going!

House of hypertrophy made a video taking about EMG Machines. Using research papers. Yall should check that out if your actually interested in the material being showcased. I love both him and Ryan and will continue watching both.
