Form cues
- Sit on the floor with legs extended and loop the band around both feet at the arches.
- Grab both ends of the band with a neutral grip, arms fully extended forward.
- Row the band to your lower ribs, driving your elbows straight back.
Finish strong — take the last set close to failure.

- Kneel or stand and grab each end of the band with arms fully extended overhead.
- Pull your elbows down and slightly back, driving them toward your hip pockets.
Why This Workout Works
This workout is built around the principles of muscle building training. Use moderate loads (65-80% of your 1RM) with controlled eccentrics and full range of motion. Prioritize progressive overload by adding reps before adding weight. Train each muscle group 2x per week with 10-20 hard sets per muscle per week.
Training Parameters
- Rep Range: 8-12 reps — the hypertrophy sweet spot for maximum muscle growth
- Rest Periods: 60-90 seconds — long enough for quality reps, short enough for metabolic stress
- Sets Per Exercise: 3-4 sets — optimized for muscle building
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.
