If most gym-going guys could ask one question, it would probably be something to do with learning how to get bigger arms.
After all, having a massive pair of bulging biceps is the pinnacle of fitness aesthetics for any man who takes his physique seriously.
But despite their enthusiasm for results, many people never get near their dream due to the colossal amount of misinformation and "broscience" which exists in gyms around the world.
The first cause for concern is today's over-reliance on bodybuilding supplements to perform miracle results. This often leads to people spending money they do not have, on various products which they simply do not need in order to see results.
Then you'll have the uneducated gym members who happen to have trained for longer than you, suddenly wanting to give you unsolicited advice on what you should be doing, most of which directly contradicts what everybody else is saying. And finally you have those who claim that you need outside interference - i.e. the use of anabolic steroids.
Here's the great news - it's all nonsense.
There is a ton of scientifically researched data showing how to achieve bigger arms. But sadly most people just don't know where to find it, due to the fact that the industry is soaked in sales pitches and the aforementioned over-reliance on bodybuilding supplements.
In today's post you are going to learn one such trick.
In 2011, a research team from Norway looked into the myth that training your legs creates a huge testosterone spike which can yield great full body results for new lean muscle growth. If you've trained for a while, you have probably heard this myth countless times.
"If you want to get big arms, train your legs", as they say.
But somewhat surprisingly, the researchers discovered that the testosterone spike produced from heavy squats and deadlifts was nowhere near long lasting enough to provide the full body effects people often talk about. However, they did stumble across another very useful tactic.
You see, the hormone spike was short-lived, but it definitely did exist. So the researchers played with the idea of training a smaller muscle group straight after their leg workout to see if it returned improved results. It did.
That's because testosterone and GH levels are temporarily raised for around 30-45 minutes, and any minor muscle group which is trained within this time can claim the full benefits of the environment you have created.
So for three months, the team had their subjects train their right arm following a leg session while training their left arm without a leg session. They discovered that their theories were indeed correct.
The right arm of the subjects was noticeably bigger and stronger.
So while training your legs is not 100% necessary to building bigger arms, it certainly helps! The trick is to utilize that spike in testosterone and growth hormone to your own advantage. The scientists concluded that any minor muscle group could be used in place of biceps, too.
