Biceps are the muscles that are most often asked to seen flexed. When chicks say, "Hey, flex for me!", they are most likely talking about your biceps.

Your biceps get a lot of training from other exercises, so you do not need to go crazy with countless sets and reps. Most people think if I do 30 sets of barbell curls, I will build massive biceps.

Nevertheless, they are wrong! This method will lead to overtraining, which could actually make your muscles decrease in size.

Well, let us get into the training. I like to do my biceps on the same day as my back. Since most back exercises involve using the biceps, they will get warmed up and receive a good workout.

This also prevents you from overtraining your biceps. If you do your biceps on Monday, then do your back on another day, you could end up overtraining.
