Eccentric pull ups (chin ups) super set with biceps curls
Have your spotter give you a lift up every time so you can focus strictly on the negative motion of the pull ups (chin ups). Then jump right into the curls. Gabe and Howard focused on keeping their arms and shoulders pinned back to work the long head of the biceps.

Lying biceps cable curls super set with cable reverse curls
Grab a wide, lat pull down bar for the lying cable curls. Make sure your upper arm is completely motionless and the hinge is at your elbow. Pull the bar down above your head. This will allow for the maximum contraction of the biceps. Use a wide grip for these. On the reverse curls, make sure your thumbs are on top of the bar (monkey grip).

Arm workout tips
As Gabe mentioned in the video, using proper form on all of these exercises is one of the biggest keys to muscle growth. Targeting the biceps or triceps specifically, rather than bouncing or cheating will get you exponentially ahead of the curve.
Also, taking both the Xiphos and T-Volve pre-workout like Gabe and the team does, will give you an incredible, skin tearing pump! The Xiphos is our muscle pump formula and vasodilator. It will help increase the amount of blood pushed into the muscle cells while working out, and give you a crazy pump. The T-Volve is our all natural testosterone booster.
