Total Arms Pyramid Workout: Build Muscle in Your Arms

If you want bigger, strong arms — this challenging pyramid format workout if for you. The Total Arms Pyramid Workout contains essential exercises to build biceps, triceps, shoulder and forearm muscles. Try to get through this workout as fast as you can, resting when you need to, to get the most benefit. Believe it or not, you will only do three exercises in this workout to build bigger arms.

Trust me. It’s not about being fancy with your workouts… It really is about working your muscles to fatigue so that your body sends signals to your muscles to grow and get stronger. Couple muscle fatigue with rest, hydration and a healthy diet and you will get the muscular, toned body that you want. Nothing fancy, nothing over the top — just consistent challenging workouts. It’s that simple. You won’t be disappointed!

Remember earlier what I was saying about fatigue? Now I think you know exactly what I mean. Be sure to avoid heavy upper body lifting tomorrow to give your upper body a chance to rest and repair.
