Biceps Training & Arm Development

Anatomy & Role

The biceps brachii has a long head and short head, working in tandem with the brachialis and brachioradialis to flex the elbow and supinate the forearm. Balanced arm development requires training both heads.

Best Exercises

Key movements include standing barbell curls, incline dumbbell curls (for long head stretch), preacher curls (for short head peak), and hammer curls for the brachialis.

Sets, Reps & Volume

Perform 8–12 weekly sets. Use moderate weights in the 8–12 rep range with strict form, minimizing shoulder swing and emphasizing full elbow flexion and supination at the top.
