The 5-Minute Biceps Builder

No Time have to hurry up for life but need to impress people with your biceps. Here is the way ."Slow and steady” goes the old adage, and with resistance training, that’s pretty much the course, especially for biceps.

You put in your time hammering out 8- to 12-rep schemes with adequate rest between sets, and muscle gains accrue. But the fact is, that approach works best for those who can apply it in the gym consistently for an extended period. But what about the rest of us, who are increasingly pressured for time but nevertheless want our fair share of muscle results?

Well, we too have options. The following biceps workout utilizes a shock technique known as “running the rack.” In effect, it allows you to blow through a highly intense workout that hits the biceps, the brachialis, the brachioradialis and the forearm flexor muscles in less than five minutes. A word to the wise, however: This method should be used only short-term, say, no more than four consecutive biceps workouts, which is more than enough to help you pile on the muscle tissue without overtraining the muscles and their connective tissues.
