Hammer Curls?Jebus wrote:
Did a Biceps-exercise yesterday I hadn't done before. Basically, instead of doing regular curls, you bow your arm a bit to the left(or right), to the outside of yourself, as you were pointing your thumb more towards the ground, together with flexing the biceps. This gives a great burn in the biceps peak

The best way to get your bicep peaks to a maximum is to hold the dumbbells with the tips of your fingers and do a curl like that. It's much hard, but the burn is just ridiculous in comparison with a normal curl.Jebus wrote:

Alos, Irish, Hammer curls do NOT improve your bicep peak. I don't do hammer curls, they're only useful if you combine them with normal curls. Hammer curls aren't the best exercise for biceps.
Sounds awesome, I'll try that outZimmer wrote:

No thanks, my muscles won't exactly be causing any hard-ons (yet). It's just a regular curl, but at the top you tilt the weight away from your body just a bit and squeeze the biceps so you'll get a real intense burnUzique wrote:
film yourself doing them in your shed so we can all get a better idea of what you're trying to describe
and can all achieve hard-ons
Okay, but what are some other exercises for Chest then? I can come up with enough for legs. I'd split it up immediately if I were able to find more time to hit the gym.. but I can'tSonderKommando wrote:
I think you need to have dedicated days for chest and legs. You can combine back back and shoulders and bi s and tri's if ya want.
Overtraining is a real problem. But you need to be doing more for your chest than just benchpress.Jebus wrote:
Oh I see, I always though that doing several exercises that targeted the same muscle were quite useless after a while, because you can only 'gain' so much
That really only applies to serious serious workouts + taking a strict diet. You can't overtrain on things like your abs, but you can overtrain on your biceps and legs. It's hard to get a balance right sometimes due to the fact that many people enjoy one particular muscle to workout, and focus on that for a long time and ignore the rest; which leads to weight lost and damaged muscles.SonderKommando wrote:

ever think he was trying to sell you some junk he makes a large margin on? thing about whey protein is that it needs to actually be a good product, not laden with fats and other shit you don't need.>rush.Durex wrote:
The guy at the shop said it was relevantly cheaper than the other products because it is new and they're trying to get themselves into the market. He said he's been using it for months and said it's the best shit he's ever used, and he was ripped as fuck.
It tastes really nice! And it doesn't clump at all. I'm willing to give it a go. A lot of my mates use the same brand and have seen amazing improvements.Zimmer wrote:
Lol. Thanks baggs, you said it so I don't have to.
Let's put this simply: You got ripped off. I wrote a massive post about what you should buy, your choice to ignore it, but I'm pretty sure most people here agreed with what I said. If it's not a well known brand, you don't touch it. Simple as that. I'll read up on what that contains when I get home... But I can tell you now that it's going to clump and not taste nice. 2.5 scoops is too much for a drink, the protein should be balanced throughout the day. For example, 24g in the morning of Optimum Nutrition and then 1 hour before exercise Phd ISO-7 which is 37g and then another 37g right after workout. Not including meals throughout the day.
