The “why” often helps you get results more than the “how” and arm exercise is not an exception.
Below are four exercises in a row you can perform to sculpt, tone and strengthen your arms. The “how” of this lesson is focused on the sequence of compound movements first and isolation movements second.
The first exercise of the series is a single arm row which is a compound movement engaging multiple joints, multiple muscles and serves many objectives from helping you lose weight to helping you do pull ups. One of the muscles that you engage in this motion is your biceps. This motion is done with heavier load that matches your big muscles and multiple joint abilities.
After you are done with a single arm row, you move to a biceps curl which is an isolation movement engaging a single joint of your elbow with focus on your biceps. If you reverse this process, you tire your biceps and limit your ability to perform the single arm row.
