The abdominal muscles are key components to providing strength and support to keep the body upright and for movement.
When these muscles are in poor condition, additional stress is applied to the spine as it supports the body and back injury or pain is more likely.

A strong abdominal musculature may be an important factor to enhance athletic performance and prevent back injury.
Simply exercising the abdominal muscles should be included as part of a daily routine of good health.

Many people perform an infinite number of repetitions when performing abdominal exercises. They are still training muscles and the abdominal muscles should not be treated any differently during strength training than any other muscle group.

People do hundreds sit ups or crunches a day. Would they do hundreds bench presses a day to increase their upper body strength? Of course not, and there is no reason to do hundreds abdominal curls either.

If you are performing high repetition abdominal exercises (sit ups, crunches) you will improve local muscle endurance and only slightly increase strength during the first few weeks of the training program. After that your ability to perform more repetitions will increase but not your abdominal strength.

To strength train abdominal muscles it would be more effective to reduce the number of repetitions and increase the resistance.

This is an arm workout that we did the day after the 2009 Mr. Olympia in Las Vegas. It was a busy spot because a lot of the pro’s were doing photo shoots after the show. I’ve never seen so much muscle in a gym in all my life

Reverse curls are great to finish off your arm workout because they give you a great pump – brushing your teeth is tough after doing these!

This exercise is done with the palms facing down instead of facing up like in a standard barbell curl, This exercise is much more difficult to do than a barbell curl so dont use a lot of weight, start with about 35% of what you can do with the palms up.

These can be done using the preacher bench as shown here or from a standing position. I suggest doing these at the end of your arm workout when your biceps are good and weak, that way, even though the bicep is stronger than the forearm they are both worked out evenly.

The muscle size increase in a pump is short lived, typically much less than an hour. A pump is not a sign of permanent growth, rather an indication that you have worked out hard and that bloodflow has increased to the muscle.

Forearm exercises are tough on the elbows and we don’t want you getting tendonitis so only use the amount of weight that lets you use slow, controlled form. If you have any pains in your elbow region, see your doctor before doing these!

Anyone can be healthier, have more energy, sleep better, and feel better about themselves through bodybuilding. Bodybuilding doesn’t have to be expensive or take a lot of time, gyms are great but home workouts can save you time and money. A cheap dumbbell set from a garage sale or walmart is all it takes to get started with your home workouts.
