Even if you
have do everything we have outlined in 101bodybuilding.com, and more,
you may still find that certain areas of the biceps muscles are
relatively less well developed than others.
In general,
when you are trying to build up a weak area of the biceps muscles, the
best technique you can employ is one-arm dumbbell exercises. Doing an
entire set with just one arm at a time allows for maximum concentration
and intensity, and ensures that each arm works to its maximum. This
keeps a stronger biceps muscles from overshadowing the weaker, which can
result in asymmetrical arm development. Also, be sure to twist the wrist
during the movement for total biceps muscles contraction.
However, we
believe one major reason bodybuilders show weak points in the biceps
muscles is that they do the exercises incorrectly. You need to master
proper technique - keeping the elbows steady, lowering the weight rather
than dropping it, employing as many Shocking Principles as possible -
and then you will be much less likely to have problems in this area.
We see a lot
of bodybuilders using their forearms when they do curls, starting the
motion with a kind of wrist curl which takes away from the effectiveness
of the exercise. Or they will do a curl and, at the top, instead of
flexing their biceps muscles - to maintain maximal tension - they will
just throw the weight back toward their shoulders, leaving the biceps
muscles loose and not working at all. Instead using the peak contraction
principle - flexing the biceps muscles as hard as possible when you get
to the top of the curl.
