Just 2 Arm Exercises #bodybuilding #buildmuscle

Fitness influencers over-complicate things to their advantage...making it seem like there are 17 different biceps exercises and you have to do and all these different angles plus target your short head VS your long head! Absolute BS. It's primarily to make good content, engage an audience, and boost their level of expertise...since it's so complicated they must be a serious source of knowledge to understand all this. It's not all bad - but I'm speaking from experience, I went down this route for years and was hyper focused on doing a zillion different exercises in varying positions to max contract the muscle, twist the wrist optimal optimal optimal....SHMOPTIMAL! I found this approach to have such a little affect on muscle growth. What really matters is INTENSITY, REST TIME, TEMPO, VOLUME, REP-RANGE, etc. Often I see ppl say something like here's the ultimate Triceps Workout! and It just shows 5 exercises and MAYBE a rep-range. No mention of the intensity??? are we training to failure? not? How many sets? How long do I rest in between? How often should I hit? What tempo should I use? Range of motion? Exercise cues to think about? And I get it, because to the beginner, it is the most visually appealing and simplified to focus on the exercise and associate all the muscle building value with the exercise selection. But the TRUTH is that it hardly matters. Yes, doing a mix of movements is good, and switching it up from time to time will help. However, I am the test subject who can only do a handful of exercises with intensity. What you should take from my story is that the exercise you do is not nearly as important as how you do it (how intense, how many times, how much rest, how often, at what speed etc.). I’ve seen some solid growth from just doing 2 movements for biceps/triceps. Also, these are smaller less complex muscles - really you are just bending and straightening your elbow - doesn’t need to be that complicated. Understanding the anatomy and how different exercises target differently is useful - but massively overstated. This applies specifically to muscle gain goals. #bodybuilding #buildmuscle #physique
