building up your bicep and tricep
muscles is what ends up increasing the
overall size of your arms this makes it
sound very simple to add inches of size
to your biceps and triceps just by
following an arm building routine that
gives you the best curl and extension
variations however the way you train
your arms and the things you do in
between your workouts will have a much
bigger effect on how fast you're able to
build your biceps and your triceps so
today i want to go over five major
tweaks that i want you to apply during
the next 30 days and if you do i
guarantee you that these will help you
add mass to your arms far better than
relearning the bicep and tricep
exercises that you probably already know
and are already doing but i will give
you a step-by-step sample workout at the
end anyway so this way there's no
confusion so the first step is to start
your arm workouts for the next 30 days
with your heaviest bicep and tricep
exercises first and you're gonna focus
on upping your weight especially for
those first three sets after you've
already completed your warm ups to make
it simple for your biceps start first
with either barbell bicep curls easy bar
bicep curls or preacher curls for your
triceps start first with either dips
skull crushers or overhead tricep
extensions these are arm exercises that
require a lot of energy and allow you to
move a lot of weight which is why i want
you to try to position them early on in
your workout and your only goal over the
next 30 days with these exercises that
you start with is to increase the amount
of weight that you can lift for six to
ten reps so if you're currently doing
your barbell curls with let's say 50
pounds for 10 reps on your first set i
want you to try to move that up to 55
pounds by sliding a two and a half pound
plate on each side most likely if doing
10 reps of 50 pounds was actually a
challenge for you you won't be able to
do 55 pounds for a full 10 reps when
first moving up and that's perfectly
fine i still want you to up that weight
and as long as you can do at least six
reps you're going to work for the next
30 days on closing that gap between 6
and 10 reps with that heavier weight
load
once you get to 9 or 10 reps with that
slightly heavier weight load you're
going to up the weight by five pounds
again and drop your reps then repeat the
process by building back up to your ten
reps if you're only able to up your
weight by five pounds over the next 30
days for the same amount of reps that
you were doing with five fewer pounds on
the bar before i want you to understand
that you've been very successful with
this first step if you're able to move
up your weight by more than five pounds
then that's even better remember you're
going to do this for the first three
sets of both your bicep and tricep
exercises which you're going to be super
setting together throughout the entire
workout that's actually step two we're
going to turn your arm workout into a
push pull routine that means that every
set that you do for your triceps will
immediately be followed by a set for
your biceps with no break time in
between once you're done with both of
them then you can take a break before
repeating the same superset process for
your next set and something that you'll
notice right away is that you'll get an
incredible pump by doing your bicep and
tricep sets back to back this is because
your body will essentially be pumping
blood to your biceps and your triceps at
the same time expanding your arms both
ways this increase in cellular pressure
can help boost protein synthesis and
reduce protein breakdown leading to more
muscle growth especially when combined
with heavy weight training but aside
from getting more of a pump supersetting
biceps and triceps will not only help
you get your workout done faster but
it'll also allow you to train your
biceps and triceps more often during the
week
this is crucial for growing your arms
and that's why increasing training
frequency is your next step over the
next 30 days you're going to make sure
that you're training your arms more
often a lot of you are trying to build
bigger arms with only one arm day per
week and unfortunately that's just not
going to cut it if you're following a
bro training split where you're training
one muscle per workout there's basically
no way that you'll be able to train your
arms multiple times per week on the
other hand a push-pull routine will give
you enough time for both your biceps and
triceps to fully recover and be trained
again within that same week so at
minimum you should be doing at least two
arm workouts per week a nice push-pull
split routine is to do chest and back on
one day legs on the next day and then
arms on the third day then you could
take a day off and repeat this three-day
cycle over and over again
next you're going to make sure that on
the third set of every exercise you're
going to go until failure for both your
biceps and your triceps when i say third
set i mean the last set of every
exercise if you're doing four then it
would be the fourth set but really it's
not necessary to do more than three sets
of four or five bicep and tricep
exercises paired together per arm
workout and on the last of each of those
exercises you want to hit failure which
means that you're going to perform reps
until you physically can't lift the
weight anymore if for whatever reason
you're able to do 10 reps or more on
that last set total failure that's a
glaring sign that you're not using
enough weight for that exercise if
you're really pushing yourself during
each set as your sets progress the
number of reps that you can complete for
each consecutive set should technically
drop down so if you were shooting for 10
reps on your first set and you really
really pushed yourself chances are very
high that you'll be failing at eight or
nine reps by your last set of that
exercise otherwise the weight you're
using is likely not heavy enough for you
pushing yourself to failure on the last
set of every exercise will help you
ensure that you're progressively
overloading your biceps and triceps
which will maximize muscle growth just
keep in mind if you're doing an exercise
like skull crushers let's say you
definitely want to make sure that you
have a spotter when you're going to
failure as you move on through your four
or five pairs of bicep and tricep
exercises when you get to that last
exercise you're going to take the next
step which is to vary your rep ranges so
throughout this entire workout you were
aiming for six to ten reps of heavy
weight this rep range is great at
targeting your fast twitch muscle fibers
which support quick and powerful
movements for a short duration these
fast twitch muscle fibers are more often
linked to muscle growth than slow twitch
muscle fibers which are more so for
longer duration endurance based
activities slow twitch muscle fibers are
also activated much more with higher
reps and developing these muscle fibers
will also lead to further muscle growth
so on the last exercise for all three
sets we're going to cycle the reps
higher by incorporating a drop set to 20
reps so as an example if for your last
exercise you're doing cable tricep
extensions superseted with standing
cable curls you're going to do your
heavy set of tricep extensions aiming
for about 10 reps or less and then as
soon as you're done you're going to drop
the weight lower and pump out 20 more
reps then immediately move on to the
bicep cable curls and do the same thing
10 reps first then drop then 20 then
take a break and repeat the whole
process for a total of three sets the
weight that you select for your drop set
should be significantly lower than the
weight that you were using for your 10
reps but you should still barely be able
to squeeze out those 20 reps your arms
should feel like they're on fire when
you're done with those 20 reps if you're
repping it out easily then you need to
up the weight so right now on your
screen you should see a sample of this
30 day bigger arms workout plan you can
see i've paired skull crushers with
barbell bicep curls first since those
exercises allow you to lift a lot of
weight then the next pair is overhead
tricep extensions in combination with
preacher curls using an easy bar and
after that it's dumbbell tricep
kickbacks superseted with concentration
curls you're gonna do all of those for
three sets of six to ten reps and if you
want you can throw in another pair
before going to your last exercise but
for most people four pairs of exercises
is more than enough for your arms so
then you go on to your last exercise
which in this sample i have as cable
tricep extensions and cable bicep curls
that's when you'll aim for six to ten
reps first then perform a drop set to 20
reps before moving on to your super set
and again we're doing that last one for
three sets now i guarantee if you do
this at least two times a week you put
your best foot forward and push yourself
with the weight that you're using you
will see results in as little as 30 days
now before you run off to go do this
workout there are a few other key points
to keep in mind number one is that you
will have to maintain a calorie surplus
of about 200 to 300 extra calories a day
on top of maintenance to build muscle
you can use my calorie calculator in the
description below or you can google a
macro calculator on your own to find out
how many calories you should be eating
number two is that you have to be eating
enough protein every single day this
will be anywhere from 0.7 to 0.8 grams
of protein per pound of body weight
number three even though i want you to
push yourself with the weight you're
lifting and even though i want you to
cheat on your last one or two reps if
you have to to squeeze out those extra
reps aside from those final reps the
rest of your sets should have great form
that means no using momentum or bending
significantly backwards during bicep
curls make sure you're also not flaring
your elbows out when curling or doing
skull crushers and in general maintain
good form i'll include a link below in
the description for full demonstrations
on how to do the best bicep and tricep
exercises so you're not left confused
and finally number four the most
important of all which is consistency
yes your arms really can grow in the
next 30 days with this routine but
they're not going to grow by 5 inches
overnight after the 30 days you want to
keep working on increasing the amount of
weight that you can do for each exercise
which remember was step number one and
after about 30 to 60 days you can switch
up all the exercises and replace them
with other bicep and tricep exercises
then follow the same five steps outlined
in this video so that about wraps it up
i really hope you guys try this workout
process for 30 days or longer and if you
do please comment with your results
