2 Classic Arm Exercise Variations for Stronger, More Chiseled Arms

We all want chiseled stronger arms, right? Check out these two arm exercises to get yourself a pair of pythons Popeye would be jealous of.


Side note: to anyone not looking to get bigger... lifting weights doesn't do that. Too many calories does. I am trying to put on muscle mass, so I am eating an excess of calories. Dial in your calories based on your goals... I digress.


For the most part the basic exercises work the best: squats, deadlifts, bench press, etc. However, if you've been training for a long time, sometimes small tweaks or variations can help you to get out of a rut and continue seeing progress.


If you're still relatively new to training both of these variations could be staples in your workouts. As with any exercise, leave your ego at the door, start light, and learn to do the exercise correctly!


Check out my exercise demos below as well as my daily workout program for 9.99!


Exercise 1: The Triceps Dip + 3 Pulses

Time under tension is huge for building muscle. Take this classic exercise and make it more effective with this variation! Try: 3-4 Sets of 6-12 Reps.



Exercise 2: DB/ BB Z Press

This spin on the classic shoulder press completely takes your legs out of the equation and makes you have to brace your core! Try: 3-4 sets of 6-12 reps.
