Arm Workout Exercise #1: Rope Triceps Pushdowns

Make sure you’re using your elbow as the hinge for this triceps exercise. Lock your upper arm in place from your shoulder to your elbow and use the mind-muscle connection to contract the triceps and move the weight. We prefer to separate the rope at the bottom by pulling it apart.  Do this for as many reps as possible before you bring your palms close together and finish the reps.

Make sure you turn your pinky outwards as you rotate the dumbbell at the top of the range of motion. This is an old trick that will help increase the contraction in the biceps.

 Arm Workout Exercise #3: Barbell Skull Crusher

If the standard Olympic barbell is too heavy (which it is for many people), simply switch to the EZ bar and take a medium width grip.

Arm Workout Exercise #4: Spider Curls

For these, we want to mimic the drag curl form. Rather than locking your upper arm in place and using just the elbow as the hinge, allow your elbow to move backwards as you curl the weight. This puts more tension on the long head of the biceps, which is the goal of this specific exericse.

Arm Workout Exercise #5: Overhead Dumbbell Triceps Extensions

On this exercise, rather than locking your arms out at the top, use a soft lock to keep the tension in the triceps.
