Biceps
The biceps are a group of muscles that extend from the shoulder to the elbow. They are responsible for flexing the elbow, supinating the forearm, and assisting in lifting and pulling movements.
The barbell bicep curl is a classic arm exercise that targets the biceps brachii muscle. It involves curling a barbell towards your shoulders while keeping your upper arms stationary. This exercise helps to develop strength and size in the biceps.
The barbell drag curl is a biceps exercise that targets the brachialis and brachioradialis muscles. It involves curling the barbell towards your shoulders while keeping your elbows close to your sides to maximize biceps engagement.
The barbell preacher curl is an isolation exercise that targets the biceps brachii muscle. It involves curling a barbell while seated at a preacher bench to focus on the biceps and minimize momentum from other muscle groups.
The barbell reverse curl is an isolation exercise that targets the biceps brachii, brachialis, and brachioradialis. It involves curling a barbell with an overhand grip to develop strength and size in the upper arms.
The barbell spider curl is an isolation exercise that targets the biceps by placing the arms in front of the body and curling the barbell towards the shoulders. This movement helps to develop the biceps brachii and brachialis muscles.
The cable overhead curl is an isolation exercise that targets the biceps brachii, which are the muscles on the front of the upper arm. By performing this exercise with a cable machine, you can maintain constant tension on the biceps throughout the movement, leading to greater muscle activation and growth.
The dumbbell bicep curl is an isolation exercise that targets the biceps brachii, a muscle group located on the front of the upper arm. It is commonly performed to increase arm strength and size.
The dumbbell concentration curl is an isolation exercise that targets the biceps brachii muscle. It is performed by curling a dumbbell with one arm while seated with the elbow braced against the inner thigh. This exercise helps develop strength and size in the biceps for improved arm definition and function.
The dumbbell hammer curl is an isolation exercise that targets the biceps brachii, brachialis, and brachioradialis muscles. It involves curling dumbbells with a neutral grip to develop strength and size in the upper arms.
