The Workout
Start with this as your primary movement. Warm up with 2 lighter sets first.
Form cues
- Hold one end of a dumbbell vertically on both palms, pressing your palms into the underside of the top plate.
- Stand tall and curl the dumbbell up by flexing at the elbows.
- Keep your elbows tucked tight to your sides throughout the entire movement.
Finish strong — take the last set close to failure.
Form cues
- Lie face down on an incline bench (45-60 degrees).
- Let your arms hang straight down, holding dumbbells or a barbell.
- Curl the weight up by contracting your biceps.
Why This Workout Works
This workout is built around the principles of endurance training. Use lighter loads (40-60% 1RM) with high reps. Minimize rest between sets to challenge your cardiovascular system. Circuit training and supersets are particularly effective. Focus on maintaining form even as fatigue accumulates.
Training Parameters
- Rep Range: 15-25 reps — designed for sustained muscular effort
- Rest Periods: 30-45 seconds — short rest to maximize calorie burn
- Sets Per Exercise: 2-3 sets — optimized for endurance
Biceps Training Tips
- *Vary your grip width and angle — supinated, neutral, and pronated grips each emphasize different portions of the biceps and brachialis.
- *Incline curls stretch the long head more than standing curls, producing a fuller peak.
- *Keep elbows pinned to your sides — swinging reduces bicep activation.
