Whats better for strong biceps?


Question:
regular chin ups or doing the flexed arm hang?

Answers:
I don't like the concept behind the flexed arm hang because it doesn't put your muscle through the full range of motion. If you do a variation it is actually a very good workout.

-Start with your chin above the bar like you just did a chin up.

-Now SLOWLY lower yourself down to full extension.

- It should take about 10-20 seconds for you to go from the the highest point to the bottom. And this will be pretty damn hard.

I think the term for this is called a negative rep, and they are great for most excersices including Bench Press / Curls / Tricep extensions etc.

Do them both can't hurt!
pull upss.
both. I do everything in 'super slow' mode. It helps develop all of the muscle instead of just the Bicep head.
Take 12 seconds to lower yourself.if you have a spotter..have them lift you back up and keep doing this until you cant do it anymore..and then..EAT PROTEIN>..lots of it 30 minutes after you work out.FEED YOUR MUSCLES
