Turning Pipe Cleaners into Head Turners

Steve May 4, 2017

With the phrase SUNS OUT, GUNS OUT being hash tagged more now then ever, we can’t help to put more attention into our “Gun” development.  With Summer right around the corner, we can turn the Pipe Cleaners into something of Head Turners.  Despite the Triceps being the largest muscles in the upper arm, Biceps definitely seem to be the favorite to train for most folks.  Not all Bicep exercises develop and thicken the bicep brachii and brachialis (two heads of the Bicep) like the Preacher Curl.  Whether with dumbbells for a unilateral contraction or with a cambered bar, shown here, for a bilateral contraction, the Preacher Curl is one to certainly include into your arm day arsenal.  Variable grips on the bar are a huge advantage for many degrees of development and nothing will strengthen your distal biceps tendon (nearest elbow groove) more efficiently than FULL range of motion on this movement.  So dig those arms in deep into the pad and PRAY for the Pump to reside.
