2 Exercises for Building Ginormous Guns

No Curls Allowed!!

Want to know the secret to building tremendous biceps and rip your triceps and shoulders to shreds? If you think the answer is 10 sets of curls 3 times per week you may learn why your arms have peaked.

Bicep curls and tricep extensions are isolation exercises. Although these could be useful towards the end of a workout you need to be doing compound exercises if you want to build the big guns.

If you are currently starting your workouts with curls try this instead

Squats: 5 sets, 5 reps
Deadlift: 4 sets, 6-8 reps

You can always add the curls later on but focus your energy on compound exercises early on in the workout and reap the rewards tremendous arms.
