In this article, we’ll talk about biceps and how to develop these muscles. So let us dive in. What Is Biceps? The biceps is the muscle of the upper arm that consists of two parts, which are the long head and the short head. The muscle is connected to the bone with the proximal biceps tendons in the shoulder joint and the distal biceps tendons in the elbow joint. To put it simply, the biceps is a big muscle that is situated in the upper arm from the shoulder to the forearm. The main function of the biceps is to extend and flex the arm at the elbow. It also helps rotate the forearm and hand. So basically, this muscle allows us to lift objects, hold heavy things, and do many other daily things. Tips on How to Grow Biceps? Certainly, everybody dreams of relief biceps muscles, but achieving this goal is not that easy. In fact, except for working out, you need to do a lot of other stuff to grow biceps muscles. So here are some tips and tricks on how to grow biceps fast and stress-free: Eat more protein. For building any muscle, our body needs amino acids and the best way to get them is to eat more protein. Exercise regularly. In order to succeed in any area, you need to practice regularly. The same goes for developing bicep muscles - you need to work out regularly. Consider having your thyroid checked. If you eat protein and exercise but you still see no progress, you might want to visit a doctor and have your thyroid checked because there might be some hormonal issue.

Many people want to have beautiful thighs. Unfortunately, to keep them in good shape requires long and hard work. Here are some exercises that are sure to help you work out your thighs. Cross Lunges This deep stretch will improve your thighs and give you energy. Spread your legs and point your feet outward. Bending your knees, lower yourself into a squat position. Put the palms on your hips above your knees to deepen the squat and stretch further. Jump up and put your feet in front of each other, straightening and crossing your legs as you land. Get back to the position from the start and repeat the actions with the opposite leg. Repeat this exercise as many times as possible, alternating between the two legs, for at least 40 seconds. Knee Squats Knee squats together are better to strengthen the inner thighs, quads, and hamstrings than regular squats. And to avoid wasting time, you can work your arms at the same time. Stand up straight with your feet together. Pick up some dumbbells, bend your arms at the elbows, and bring them into contact with your shoulders. Perform squats with your knees bent and your hips pulled back as if you were going to sit on a chair. Keep your feet together throughout the exercise holding the weight on your heels. Now extend your arms upward. Return to the start without transferring the weight to your toes. Do 10 repetitions. Elbow Plank Leg Lift Add leg lifts to the regular elbow plank to improve hip work. Lie on your side, and bend your right arm at the elbow leaning on it. Stretch your leg so that your body is in a straight line. Try to lean only on the outer edge of your right leg. Place your left hand on your hip. Feel your spine stretching and the tension in your abs, then raise your left leg slightly to your hip. Slowly put it back down. Without bending at the waist or leaning on your shoulders, place the weight on your elbows. Do about 15 reps on both sides. Leg bend swing This is one of the most popular exercises for strengthening the hips and thighs. It is suitable for everyone, requires no additional equipment, and does not involve the spine. This combination works the posterior, anterior, lateral, and medial thighs. Start doing the plank with your palms under your shoulders and your knees under your pelvis, keeping your back in position. As you exhale, push up on your heels; do 20 reps on each leg for four sets. Side push-ups If this is your first time doing this exercise, you don't need any dumbbells - learn the leg movements first. Holding a dumbbell in your right hand, run hard to the left and place your right hand onto your right leg. Lower your hips as far as you can and lean on your heels. Point your toes forward and bend your leg at a 90-degree angle. Push off with your left foot and get into a courtesy position: left foot back, right foot forward. Raise your arms with weights upward, pointing your feet up. Keep your hips and legs tense. Do not return to the start for the repetitions, but go straight from squat to side position. Perform three sets of 10 reps each, then switch sides. Final Words If you know that beautiful thighs are a reality and you have these exercises, then why not try and make your body better?

Believe it or not, wrist muscles are extremely important. In fact, developed wrist muscles allow you to correctly do such exercises as planks, push-ups, handstands, as well as various workouts with dumbbells. In other words, most sports require strong wrists, and if you want to succeed in gymnastics, martial arts, CrossFit, or climbing, you have to make sure you have strong wrist muscles. But how to achieve that? Let's talk about wrist muscles and how to develop them in more detail. Why are wrist muscles so important? Not many people know about the importance of wrist muscles, yet strong wrists are significant in fitness and many other sports. The thing is that developed wrists and joint mobility are significant for avoiding injuries. For example, such sports as tennis, volleyball, CrossFit, boxing, gymnastics, archery, basketball, canoe, and even bowling have a rather serious load on the hands and wrists. Therefore, one wrong move can cause significant damage to the muscles and tendons of your wrists and hands. At the same time, developed and stretched muscles lower the chances of getting severely injured or injured at all. So this is the main reason why working on wrist muscles is so important for pretty much everyone. Do I need to develop wrist muscles if I don’t do any sports? Of course, now many of you can come to the conclusion that they do not have to work on their wrists because they don’t do any sports or do those sports that do not require strong wrists. Well, this is, obviously, not true. Perhaps everybody needs to work on their wrists, especially people who work long hours on the computers. The thing is typing and mouse clicking is not particularly good for the health of our wrists because of the positions of our hands during those activities. Moreover, some people even struggle with carpal tunnel syndrome, which is often caused by typing. However, typing is not the only thing that can cause this syndrome. Pianists, guitarists, as well as other people whose work involves repetitive movements of the wrist, are in the risk group. Certainly, this is a rather unpleasant disease but you can lower the chances of getting it by regular exercising. So the answer to this question is: yes, you do need to work on your wrist muscles even though you don’t do any sports. Best workouts for wrists Now as we know how important it is to work on your wrist muscles, let us take a brief look at the best exercises for developing these muscles. So here they come: Dumbbell rows Holding dumbbells Wrist stretching Hand rotation with dumbbells Tennis ball squeeze These simple exercises will help you strengthen your wrists and hands and therefore help you maintain your wrist health, so make sure to give them a try. Final thoughts As you can see, strong wrists are not only important for athletes, but also for regular office workers, musicians, and pretty much everyone. So why don’t you start working on your wrists now?

After the abdominal muscles are prepared, the obliques are the next step. The obliques are several groups of abdominal muscles on either side of the main body. The external obliques are at the top and the internal obliques are at the bottom. Training them with functional exercises includes flexion, twisting, and other rotational movements. In order to properly exercise the lateral muscles, however, it is important to remember that most oblique exercises also involve the other abdominal muscles, especially the medial transverse muscles. Therefore, you need to engage certain areas of the abdominal abs in a conscious manner. Lateral twists The basic exercise for the abdominal obliques is the lying lateral twist. Begin with lying on your side with your arm bent at the elbow to support your head. Extend the elbow toward the leg slowly, performing a purposeful contraction of the abdominal obliques. Prone lateral push-ups This exercise is fine for developing the neuromuscular links between the abs and the brain. Lying on the back, pull your left elbow in a slow tempo towards the opposite knee. Perform 12-15 reps on each side, and try to achieve a special burning feeling. Lateral push-ups on a fitness ball The advantage of this exercise is that you achieve a wide range of motion by bending your body slowly and controlling each movement over the ball. As you lift, feel your side abdominals twist and stretch as you descend. Place your arms behind your neck and do not move them apart. Cross contacts Make sure that your legs are straightened up while you are lying on your back. Place your hands on the back of your head and lift your head and shoulder blades slightly. Then do a twisting motion, extending your legs with the opposite arm straight. Perform the same movement for the other side. Repeat at least 20 times. Lift your hips Make sure you are lying straight on one side. Your feet should be lying on top of each other and your free arm fixed at the waist. You need to lift your torso so that your body line is completely straight at peak amplitude. At the apex, pause briefly to emphasize the work of the obliques. As you lower your torso, your thighs are only gently touching the ground and the muscles are not fully relaxed. Developed obliques provide the framework for your abs and make them look amazing, so if you really want to have a great abdomen, you should work both your abs and obliques.
