Bicep Quick Tip: 1 1/2 Reps!

If regular bicep curls are getting stale for you, challenge yourself by doing 1 1/2 reps.

This super simple trick helps you to accumulate more volume and really activate the biceps by commanding them to CONTROL the weight. You're stopping the weight at the most difficult part of the movement so you'll have to really focus on moving it slowly down through the eccentric (where you'll stimulate the most muscle growth), a quick pause to reverse, and bring it back to the top.

✅I like to choose a weight I'd fail with at ~12 regular reps and shoot for 3 sets of 6-8.

✔️Stick to doing this for a couple weeks at a time before switching to another technique.

✔️Play around with the weight, but you don't need to go as heavy on these as you might think if you're really focusing on controlling the weight through all parts of the 1 1/2 reps!

✔️If you want to make these even harder, lean yourself against a wall to do a STRICT curl with no body momentum in play.

🚀NEXT LEVEL SUPER SET🚀

- Do 6-8 "1 1/2 reps", then perform a drop set with half the weight and shoot to double the amount of 1 1/2 reps completed using regular sets

- ex: 7, 1 1/2 reps with 30lb DBs ➡️ 14 reps with 15 lb DBs

In this clip I'm only using 25lb DBs and on my third set! 25 lbs kicking my a**!

Enjoy the pump... and the sore arms the next day. 🫡
