If most gym-going guys could ask one question, it would probably be something to do with learning how to get bigger arms.
In fact for many men, shirt-ripping biceps and triceps are the sole reason they hit the weights room on a regular basis.
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.
For instance, despite the stellar results achieved in bodybuilding's so-called golden era of the 1970's, you are now led to believe that you cannot achieve a great body without the use of various bodybuilding supplements, pills and potions along the way - all of which cost more than your weekly shopping budget!
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 news you have been waiting for - all of that is pure garbage.
Despite the confusion and contradicting advice which causes such problems, there is rock hard scientifically proven data out there showing how to do this. It's just that most people are unable to find it, buried deep beneath a sea of misinformation.
In today's post you are going to learn one such trick.
Thanks to a 2011 study from Norway, the theory that training your legs will create a bigger, more muscular upper body is no longer simply a theory. A team of top researchers studied the effects of lower body training for almost three months before reaching their conclusion.
Training your legs is a certain way to spark upper body growth, according to many gym goers..
Well, the researchers concluded that the growth hormone spike produced by a lower body workout was not sufficient to create full body results, laying to rest this theory. However, they inadvertently stumbled across another technique which can yield fantastic results.
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.
With optimal enzymes and hormones released for a period of 45 minutes, this was ample time to hit a small muscle group and monitor the results.
To test their theory, they had a group hit their left arm alone and their right arm following a leg workout over a period of three months. The results were concrete.
Following the completion of the eleven week course, the right arm of the subjects had packed on significantly more muscle mass.
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.
