Bicep/Tricep Workout






Just got back from a training session with Jason at Planet Fitness. Today, we did the a biceps and triceps circuit workout that particularly focuses the exercises on the shape and form of the biceps and triceps. The following is an outline of the type of circuit training I created that Jason and I performed today:
First Workout: (30 Pounds)
· Set 1 and 2
1. Straight Dumbbell Curls (14 Reps)
2. Overhead Triceps Press Alternative (14 Reps)
3. Twisting Dumbbell Curls (12 Reps)
4. Overhead Triceps Press Full Motion (12 Reps)
5. Dumbbell L’s curls (10 Reps)
6. Triceps Kickbacks (14 Reps)
7. Full Motion Dumbbell Curls (Last Set, Lift till failure and tears.)
Second Workout: (35 Pounds)
· Set 3 and 4
1. Seated Dumbbell Curls (12 Reps)
2. Seated Overhead Triceps Press Alternative (12 Reps)
3. Standing Twisting Dumbbell Curls (10 Reps)
4. Seated Overhead Triceps Full Motion (10 Reps)

5. Dumbbell L’s curls (8 Reps)
6. Triceps Kickbacks (14 Reps)
7. Seated Full Motion Dumbbell Curls (Last Set, Lift till failure and tears.)
Third Workout ( Cable Machines)
· Set 5 and 6
1. Triceps Pull downs (Rope)
2. Biceps Curl (L Bar)
3. Triceps Overhead Pull downs (Rope *increase weight 10 pounds)
4. Biceps Curl (L Bar * increase weight 10 pounds)
5. Triceps Pull Downs (Rope * increase weight 20 pounds)
6. Biceps Curl (L Bar *increase weight 20 pounds)

7. Triceps Alternative Standard and overhead
8. Biceps (Final Set increase weight 30 pounds and Lift till Failure)
Fourth Workout: Switch the rope with a L Bar and the L Bar with the rope
Same as workout number 3, but the switch of equipment will stimulate your brain and give you a better workout that will destroy your arms, ask Jason.
ü In Between workouts, do Abs workouts such as crunches, leg raises, side twists, and Roman chair sit ups.
ü Your body should be working at 80-90 % intensity.
ü Your last set should be of failure and you should not be able to lift up the weight no more.
ü Enjoy the workout.
