Have you dealt with torn biceps? I tore mine a couple years ago at work. Now my bicep on the left side is almost 2" shorter and not as full now. I recently started trying to get back to working out (your lower back video was sent to me and wow I'm a believer, your first stretch gave me immediate relief) and I'm staying light but feel discomfort in that bicep still. Any recommendations? Sorry, I commented before watching the whole vid, embarrassing. I will watch this multiple times. Thank you very much. You are a God send.

00:55 🤔 Width in arms is determined by the brachialis muscle, not just the biceps. 01:24 🏋♂ An injury prompted a need to train specifically for bicep width and address pain issues. 02:59 🔄 Cross body Hammer curls with a fully pronated forearm effectively target the brachialis. 03:56 🏋♂ Narrow grip pull-ups with a pronated grip minimize bicep contribution, working the brachialis. 04:51 ⛓ The "Kong curl," a cable curl variation, emphasizes pronated forearm positioning for reduced bicep stress. 05:48 🔄 Drop curls in a modified position at a slow pace effectively engage the brachialis for arm width. 07:28 🏋♂ Dedicate a full workout to the brachialis, possibly once a week, for quicker gains in arm width.

Maybe get an arm brace that locks your arm straight or do straightening exercises. Wear the brace for a couple hours a day. Also if you lift heavy biceps and then say do some video gaming for a couple hours your elbows/arms are in a curved state. If you start to heal with your arms bent your tendons tend to stiffen up. I had some really tight tendons and wore and arm brace for about 2 weeks off and on. Seemed to really loosen up the tendons. I also switched to a vertical mouse since I'm on the PC a lot. A vertical mouse holds your arm in a relaxed state. There are so many variables to tight tendons that can lead to tears. The main thing is to heal with your arms straight not bent.

Walking around wide looks better than peak. Well, unless you walk around flexed. Don't think you mentioned turning the DB to make the weight end face the chest. Makes a big difference for me. And the cable exercise is great! Decided to do all these exercises first without doing any others. Wanted to see how much the brac. is targeted WOW!! Right on it!!

Glad I came across this video. I had a distal bicep rupture, and I'm still in rehab for it. The doctor hasn't released me from his care or to go back to work. He has now allowed physical therapy to start strength training after a few months of just letting them try and get endurance back to the arm. This will help me, I am hoping to get my arm to look as normal as possible. It will always look different from the uninjured arm, but maybe I can at least get a wider arm so it doesn't look so so bad.

Jeff, i agree about the importance of the brachialis. The exercises you suggest though, i don't like. Too much joint movement going on, too much focus needed on perfect coordination to make those exercises worthwhile if you aren't already used to doing them anyway. Hammer curls are trash, i agree - again. After more than 30 years of training i found that what works best for me are plain and simple reverse curls. Regardless if using an EZ-bar, regular bar or cables. No joint movement (obviously with the exception of the elbow), no demanding coordination, easy for anybody and works like a charm. Maybe you want to give this a try and see if this could work for you, too.

Ok... review time: 4:30 Kong/Con Curl 20 years of lifting heavy weights here and I have always had bigger, muscular arms with really solid tricep genetics, and nicely developed short heads on the biceps. However, even when I was I I my strongest curling 50lb dumbbells in my 20's (seated or standing with variations for 6-10 reps) I could NEVER get that front width profile, it was absurd to me. I started these 2.5 weeks ago, and have done them to near failure for a total of 5 times/workouts. 3-4 sets, 1 warmup for 12 easy reps and reverse pyramid the remainder. ABSOLUTE game changer and my arms literally have changed shape with size added, in complete shock to be honest. If you have under developed brachialis muscles, you 100% should give these a try and really get after it. The added "pop" that I got in such a short time is insane, and I'm 35 years old in a calorie deficit stage/cut. Hope this helps someone!

Rehab first, strength training later Start with isometric then isotonic, partial then full rom, slow tempo then fast, light then heavy

Great info with demonstrations. Do have to say many companies even brand names do a bad job of designing clothes for men specially around the arm. I have many that have big arm opening & are loose around my chest even though i dont wear baggy clothes
