As you may or may not know I like to do experiments on myself. My newest experiment will be a bicep curl experiment. My goal is to see what, if any are the effects of doing bicep curls with a light weight frequently.
My classification of a light weight is one that I can easily do 20 reps or more. This is what I will be doing…
1. I will do 20 bicep curls every day using a 15# dumbbell
2. I will do no more than 10 reps at a time
3. I will not do all 20 reps at once
4. I will split up the reps throughout the day so that the total for the day is 20.
5. I will do this everyday for 30 days
6. I will not do any specific triceps work (triceps ext, skull crushers)
7. I will continue doing other exercises like pull-ups, deadlifts and dips
Beginning on march 25, 2013 I will begin this program. I am curious to see what this will accomplish. Will my biceps get bigger? Will they get smaller? Or will it just be a waste of time. I’ll post the breakdown along with my wod weekly log.
Day 1 arm measurement: 14.75 inches
Day 30 results are in: Read about it here–https://fsefitness.com/2013/04/an-end-to-the-30-day-biceps-curl-experiment/
