One of the secrets of the huge gymnast biceps is the straight-arm exercises.

Particularly rings specialist gymnasts have really big biceps, however you don’t see them to bend their arms during their routines.

Even if they do bent arm exercises during their strength training, the straight arm exercises bring the most gains for the huge biceps, not to mention the other muscles.

And one thing is for sure: gymnasts spend most of their time perfecting their routines, and strengthening specifically for that - as I mentioned, mostly with straight arm exercises.

The bent arm strengthening exercises have a supplementary role since they don’t do such movement during their routines.

Why is straight arm training so effective, especially for the biceps?

Because when your elbows are locked and you give your arms to the right load, your brachialis and biceps contract isometrically right away.

This is a fundamental function of these muscles, and if they wouldn’t do that you could hurt yourself very easily. We could say that they actually protect your elbows with their contraction.

Which is also a key information for this topic is that the isometric contraction is a great muscle builder and the more stretched the muscle is while contracting the more the muscle building effect is.
