A Unique Exercise To Make Quick Gains In Your Arms
Too many people, in their rush to build big arms, often overtrain the biceps. This results in overtraining a muscle that does a heck of a lot of work in most upper body exercises, resulting in little or slow growth [for the average drug free trainer].
Something that I have found that will dramatically increase the size and shape of the upper arm (acknowledging the fact that triceps contribute to 2/3 of the size of the upper arm!) is what I like to call BRACHO BUSTERS!
This exercise works the brachoradialis which is the muscle that lies under the biceps. Properly developed this muscle will increase the height of the biceps and give thickness to the upper arm when viewed from the front.
Ok, let’s hit the gym!
Standing in front of an adjustable low cable pulley, set to knee height, attach a rope [as in rope pushdowns, or you can use a single cable handle as long as it is quite square]. Hold the rope or sides of handle as if you were going to do cable thumbs up curls. Now turn your hands in so that they are almost knuckles to knuckles [most-muscular or crab-pose style], let your elbows flare out from your upper body slightly and pull rope or handle to your upper chest and hold contract and down again.
After a few reps you should start feeling it in the Brachos, and what makes it better than hammer curls is that you can actually see the muscle being worked (mind-muscle connection!).
For best results it is important to keep your thumbs and upper arms aligned, and arms slightly out from your body at all times. I tend to do 3×20 medium weight, really feeling and watching the muscle work.
Your biceps will appear to increase in size within a few days, assuming proper R&R and nutrition are provided.
Try this exercise after you have finished your biceps. You’ll love the feeling as your arms ache, pump and GROW to new dimensions!

Well-Being At The Workplace
Paolo Manneschi was born in Florence Italy on June 29, 1961. For thirty years he and his family ran and operated one of the largest gyms in Florence. During this time Paolo practiced Judo and began competing at a national level.
In 1980 he trained for the Moscow Olympic Games. He was a Judo instructor for several youth groups in Florence and continues to instruct today. In 1994 he earned his diploma in Massiofisioterepia (Massage Physical Thearapy).
His many years of experience working in the sports/athletics field created a deep passion and love for the human body and how it functions. He is specifically interested in the body’s posture and the effects of good posture which he learned through his practice of Judo. Paolo works for the county of Florence in the sports sector as an administrator. He lives in Florence with his family.
Introduction from the Author
There are many reasons we cannot dedicate time to exercise each day. For many it is the daily pressures of balancing work and family, and for others it may be excessive demands of career and the modern lifestyle. However, we all must find a place and a time to get our exercise in each day.
I decided that there was a strong need to find a way get exercise in while you are stuck at your desk. I examined the various postures and problems of articulation caused by a sedentary lifestyle and devised an innovative series of exercises which anyone can do while seated at a desk.
The sedentary lifestyle is more dangerous than most people might think.
We have all become accustomed to working in offices, sitting in front of computers and televisions, sitting behind the wheel in a car, for eight hours or more each day. What are the risks involved in this?
The evidence is showing that too much sitting can lead not only to obesity, but also chronic disease, and premature death. Medical experts advise that every person gets at least 30 to 60 minutes a day of exercise. Most people do not get even this minimal amount, but for those who do, it may not fully combat the problems caused by a continuous periods of sitting. It is essential to break up sitting periods with an effective exercise or stretching routine.
Studies show that obesity, diabetes, and rates of heart disease increase by up to 3 times in people who sit excessively. The reason for this is that circulation is inhibited by sitting, especially of the enzyme called Lipase which is used by the body to absorb fats. When this enzyme is not readily available, the body resorts to absorbing fat into the muscles which causes obesity. Fat also continues to stay in your bloodstream longer which causes clogging of arteries and eventually to various forms of heat disease.
What can be done to prevent these problems?
The essential thing to be done is to get up off your chair regularly each day and get your body and circulation moving. Muscles need to be loosened to allow the healthy flow of blood and enzymes to resume naturally in your body. A regular routine of stretching while at work is an ideal routine, even if you do get to the gym each day. You must prevent extended periods of sitting by breaking up your day with a set of stretches or exercises. Even changing to a standing position while working at a desk can help.

Critical Bench Program 2.0
If You're Not Focusing On The Bench Press… You're Missing Out On A Ton of Muscle and Strength That Could Be Yours!
That's the SINGLE BIGGEST reason you need to start focusing on lifting more weight on the bench: So you can gain more muscle mass!
Not only that… the bench press is a very intense and demanding exercise for your entire body.
When you do a heavy and intense bench press… you can shock your muscles into growing faster than they usually would. And because of the intensity of the bench, your body releases a ton of anabolic hormones into your bloodstream. Things like testosterone and human growth hormone.
So bottom line… if you focus on increasing your bench press... and the amount of weight you lift on the bench press, you WILL gain muscle and lose fat. And as a result… you'll look bigger, more muscular, and also leaner.
Again, I've seen it time and time again.
Have You Ever Wondered Why People Are So Obsessed With The Bench Press?
I used to ask myself, what's the big deal with the bench press anyway?
It didn't matter if it was at school with my friends… at work with my co-workers… or at the gym with my lifting buddies… everyone would always ask me, "How Much Do You Bench?"
But over time, as I became more informed about exercise and muscle growth… I soon learned that the bench press did a lot more for your body than just about any other exercise.
3 Reasons Why You'll Want to Focus on Increasing Your Bench Press
As you probably already know… having a big bench press is like a badge of honor. Plain and simple… it gets you respect and attention in almost every area of your life. It's a measuring stick that you use with your buddies. The one with the biggest bench is usually the most respected. The strongest is usually the most respected (and most feared!)
Having a big bench usually means you're strong and in shape. In fact most football coaches in college are dead serious about knowing how much you can bench press and test it several times a year. You see they knew something that most people don't…
Increasing your bench press will also increase the amount of muscle mass you have on your entire body! It's true… and it's because of 2 reasons. First, when you keep lifting more and more weight, your body must add muscle mass so that it can handle that additional stress (weight) you're placing on it. And second, heavy intense lifts like the bench press releases anabolic hormones into your bloodstream… things like testosterone and human growth hormone. These are the male muscle builders that help you pack on muscle.
The bench press is not just about boosting your ego, having a head turning upper body, or about the ability to push people around on the field.
When done correctly (which most people don't) the bench press uses every single muscle in your body. You stimulate the chest, shoulders, triceps, biceps, your back and even your LEGS.
