How to Get Bigger Arms

Your tricep muscles sit right under your biceps and make up for 2/3 (two thirds) of your upper arms so when you exercise that muscle, you’ll be burning more fat as well as providing support for you bicep as it grows.

Over doing your bicep curls is not ideal unless you want to have disproportionate arms.

Your body naturally does everything it can to stay proportionate so working the bigger muscle which supports your bicep makes sense when you know your body can tell if your workout is a balanced one.

Once you concentrate on the triceps and less so on your biceps, that’s when you’ll start to see bigger growth and progress.


Exercises to build bigger triceps more effectively.

1. Weighting Dips (with/without weights)
2. Close grip bench press (shoulder width apart, slightly in)
3. Diamond Push Ups
4. Shoulder Press

3 Sets for each exercise (6-12 reps on each set). Rest 2-4 minutes between sets - for 3 months


The ceded tricep extension may be a great exercise for your triceps put it’s still an isolation movement which does not build as much muscle as a compound movement would.

Compound movements are those that do not target just one area or put stress on one area for spot growth.


The body grows proportionately so it responds to compound movements much more effectively for quicker muscle growth.

Replace a ceded tricep extension for a shoulder press which is the same movement but you can use allot more weight this time as well as increasing the growth stimulus 10 fold by bringing more muscles into your movement.


Remember, it’s not the quantity of reps you complete, it’s the quality of each rep you do with focus on making your muscle work harder over a longer period of time, so slowly does the trick with this and most other exercises you do in the future.
