What are you supposed to do once you reach 10 pull-ups in a row? Do you add weight or keep on doing volume routines to increase your numbers even further? The truth is that both approaches are legit, and it comes down to personal choice. The conditions you are in are also very important. I […]
Some things in life may be mandatory, but deadlifts and pull-ups aren’t part of the group. Yet the muscle industry has convinced many people that there are irreplaceable exercises. This is not true. Almost every article on deadlifts uses the same catchphrases: “The deadlift is the best exercise to build ‘real’ world strength. ” “The deadlift increases your testosterone levels.” “If you are […]
I guess I have to be the guy who stops the music once again. The answer is, “No”. Оne arm pull-ups/chin-ups do not equal balloon sized biceps. The evidence is everywhere. There are plenty of people on YouTube who can do one arm pull-ups easily without exceptionally big biceps. Rock climbers are a good example. […]
“Will I be punished for eternity if I don’t deadlift?” is one of the many questions that a permabulker asks himself at least 150 times a day. It’s been said that people who don’t deadlift miss their chance to transform from fragile boys into muscular cavemen. This is nothing but a grand illusion which has been […]
How do natural bodybuilders look in contest condition (5% body fat)? It’s going to hurt! Get ready! They look like insects that can be taken by the wind. That’s a fact that many are not willing to accept due to the brainwashing and false hope floating in the politically correct world around us. We are […]
I had to use this title because I know that otherwise you wouldn’t listen. I am not going to give you an exceptional routine that’s somehow going to make your triceps as big as those of the HodgeTwins or other “natural bodybuilders” who are actually pinning their glutes in the shadows on a daily basis. […]
Arm training is one of the simplest things in life. You don’t need more than 2 months to learn the basic biceps and triceps exercises (e.g., curls, close grip bench press, dips, pull-overs and others.) As expected, the industry wants to complicate things and sets many traps on your path. They produce video after video […]
This story took place during the summer of my high school graduation. I was in the living room, looking for wisdom in old magazines when my old hammer-proof phone started ringing. The wooden table was vibrating along with it. “Hello! Who is it?” “H! I am calling on behalf of advertising agency CreativeSolutions. We have […]
Summertime. Harry TheBicepsFlexKilla was working as a waiter in a luxury restaurant. It was a seasonal well-paying job which he’d found on a popular site. At the beginning, it was nothing but a fairy tale – a clean restaurant, an unusually polite manager and good tips from the customers. However, there were two major downsides. […]
Harry TheBicepsFlexKilla decided to measure his arms – they were barely 13.5 inches in circumference. The tape was loose, and he only had the courage to evaluate his dominant arm. “A sad, sorrowful day. The other one is probably under 13 inches,” thought Harry. Tears began accumulating in his eyes; heavy melancholy surrounded and started […]
Two businessmen with a variation of Christiano Ronaldo’s hair style and loads of dirty money to burn were in the gym talking about wrist watch brands. On the outside, those bozos appeared to be knowledgeable and passionate successful men. However, I knew that they were nothing but snobs addicted to shiny things. “Unless it’s a […]
I was doing leg presses in a fridge-sized gym resembling an underground dungeon designed by mentally ill fans of the almighty rainbow pony. The rush hour was going strong. Muscle building monkeys were dancing with dumbbells in their hands and bumping chaotically into each other. An ancient rap CD with the greatest hits of all […]
