Finding an answer to the simple questions in the fitness industry can sometimes prove very difficult. For instance, ask somebody how to build bigger arms and you'll be met with various contradicting answers to a question which seems, on the outset, so easy to answer.
There are various techniques which you will already see guys using to enhance arm growth, including...
1. Constant variety with your rep range to train every muscle fiber.
2. Discovering new exercises to keep things fresh.
3. Constantly increasing weight.
And sure, all three factors above are great for improving results. But still, most guys complain they simply cannot get the arms they feel they need to build in order to be happy with their physique.
The frustration from working yourself into the ground for little or no return is very understandable.
If this is a story all to familiar for you, you're in luck.
This in depth study analyzed whether or not the testosterone spike created by training legs prior to an upper body workout would be significant enough to have any effect on the smaller upper body muscles. An interesting theory, but it needed some proof.
For the study, they had a group of subjects perform a biceps and triceps workout for their right arm immediately following a brutal lower body training session. In order to accurately measure the results of the growth hormone spike, the subjects were also putting their left arm through the same arm workout on a different day of the week, without the prior leg session.
You will often hear quotes from trainers saying that you should train your lower body to grow your upper body, but until this 2011 study it was merely an assumption that the growth hormone spike would carry over.
Prepare to be shocked by the results of the clinical trials.
The team discovered that the subjects were able to build more lean muscle when working their arms after they had trained their legs. While it was always a theory, this was the first concrete evidence to confirm it.
They also ended another gym myth. The spike in testosterone does exist, yes, but it is far too short to carry over and have the full body effects that many trainers tell you about. In fact, the only way to get a smaller muscle group to benefit from the spike is to hit it within 45 minutes of the end of your leg workout.
The group's one rep max for biceps also increased on their right arm during the study.
So, in a world where people are often too quick to spend their hard earned cash on the latest, greatest supplements which claim to do all of the work for you, try this simple yet proven effective tip the next time you want to literally "force" your arms to new growth.
