Human Kinetics (Verlag)
978-1-7182-0087-6 (ISBN)
Building strong, muscular arms takes more than hard work and dedication. It also takes a plan—one rooted in science, based on the latest research, and proven to deliver results. Massive, Muscular Arms: Scientifically Proven Strategies for Bigger Biceps, Triceps, and Forearms is that plan and so much more.
Massive, Muscular Arms takes an in-depth look at the underlying principles of biomechanics and anatomy to provide you with a better understanding of why your results may have stagnated and how small adjustments to the most common arm exercises can make them more effective. You will learn about the importance of training for strength and why low-rep strength work is a necessary component to building more aesthetically impressive arms.
Packed with over 65 exercises designed to work deep into the muscles, you will be able to substitute selected exercises into your existing program or follow one of the six featured training programs (for novices and experienced lifters alike) that are designed to blast through plateaus and take your arm development up a notch.
Author David Barr, a certified strength and conditioning coach who has over two decades of experience in strength and conditioning, also provides you with sidebars that debunk the popular myths that are associated with arm training. Safety considerations for more advanced exercises and advice on how to perform exercises correctly and reduce risk of injury are also included.
Let Massive, Muscular Arms help you take your training to the next level!
