Tips To Get Stronger Arms Fast!

Does this look infected?

Getting stronger arms will undoubtedly increase performance in sports and in the gym. However, it will also lead to unrivaled improvements in size that will greatly improve your physique. Big arms are the billboard of a strong guy. When women see them, they melt, and when men see them, they think twice. This article will show you how to get stronger arms fast, which will in turn show you how to get bigger arms fast. The following is one of the best workout routines for upper body development.

To begin, you must have a comprehensive workout for bodybuilding. This means knowing what movements or muscles are going to be worked, in what order they will be worked, and how often they will be worked. Most people like to work each muscle group once a week, and dedicate each workout to annihilating that one muscle group. This is flawed. The more often you can work each muscle group, the faster gains will come. I'm not just showing you how to get bigger arms, I'm showing you how to get bigger arms FAST. Training frequently with marathon workouts, however, will inevitably lead to chronic issues. The problem most trainees face is not lack of muscle recovery but lack of recovery from joints and connective tissue. Muscles adapt quickly, in matter of days, and this quality is to be capitalized on. The first thing trainees notice when they are overtraining isn't chronic soreness in the muscle itself, but sore, stiff joints along with inflammation and pain. This is a response to the volume of work, or the total amount of weight and reps performed in a workout. If a muscle can recover in a matter of days, but the workload leads to joint pain, then the question when building for mass is how to sufficiently tax the muscle so as to spur new growth without deteriorating the joint. This is where high intensity training comes in.

Volume is simply weight x reps x sets, or every rep performed multiplied by the average weight used. While an important factor for growth, it is not the only one. Effort is, by far, the greatest determining factor for gaining size and strength in a short amount of time. The fact is that one set done with enough focused effort will generate more of a growth response than five sets done short of failure. This means that growth occurs more efficiently without unnecessary wear and tear on the joints. As a bonus, since muscles recover after only a few days, the workouts can be repeated more often, leading to an unheard of rate of progress! In summary, the best method for building for mass gain is short, quick, and hard!

Start by training your biceps and triceps twice a week, and then evaluate your recovery to see if your joints can handle an extra day. Choose two to three exercises for your biceps and two to three for your triceps; perform at most two sets, taking each one as far past failure as possible. This means using strict repetitions until you physically cannot squeeze out another rep. Then the fun starts. Choose one advanced training technique to continue the set. These techniques can hypothetically be used to extend the set forever, so the set will end when you break mentally. Rest for 2-3 minutes and repeat. The workout should be over inside of 35 minutes.

After the first few training sessions, your arms will be very sore for 3-5 days. In a matter of weeks, they will be sore for only 2-3 days, if at all. As this happens, you can make your week denser with training. Gauge your recovery, and err on the side of taking an extra day if you need to. Remember, it's not necessarily muscle recovery we're worried about, but joint health. The important principle when building for mass is more gain with less pain.

Advanced Techniques
Drop Sets - This requires performing strict repetitions to failure and immediately continuing the set with a lighter weight. Drop the weight at least 20% each time and go through 3-4 drops.

Forced Reps - Reach failure with strict form and continue the set with the help of a training partner. Don't get sloppy as you fatigue; make sure that you are getting enough help that you can maintain proper form, but not so much that you stop straining.

Rest-Pause Reps - Go until failure, then rest for as long as it takes you to count 15 breaths. Continue the set with the same weight until failure again. Repeat this 2-3 times.

Cheat Reps - Reach failure with strict form, and then loosen or change form so that you can continue the set. This may mean swinging a barbell curl or changing a skull crusher to a close-grip press. Remember that cheating doesn't mean getting sloppy. Each cheat has a specific technique associated with it so as to prevent injury.

So here it is: all there is to know on how to get stronger arms fast, especially when building for mass. Your progress will only be as high as the work that you put into it. When considering effective workout routines for upper body development, the key is structure, intensity, recovery, and consistency. Now get to it!
