Rise Of The Slaya 2019- Next Strongman Comp prep and fixing my hip

Growing biceps has been relatively easy for me (in comparison to, say, calves or triceps)

Getting strong on chins and fat grip pull-ups is a good start. Adding some hammer curls, semi-cheaty BB curls (with very controlled eccentric) and maybe some clean incline curls should be plenty. Add stretching straight after the last set (for 60-90 seconds) and you’re golden.

For me, simply adding weight to BB curls in the 8-15 rep range and doing extreme stretching for biceps has grown my biceps more than anything else really.

Thank you for proving that fighting is sometimes necessary in order to stand up for yourself. Of course, walking away when possible is highly beneficial to both parties involved, but then again, some people just need their asses beaten.

IF you really want to fight this dude, then just make sure he starts the fight. Hes being a dick to you, be a dick right back to him 10 fold. Just dont start throwing punches, cause thats how you get in serious trouble.

I don’t track accurately enough for this to cause me any concern so I have never double checked it to be honest.

I just scanned the barcode, put my shaker on some scales and put in 2 level scoops which came to 50g. If you go on the settings on serving size you can change it to per gram so put it x50 gram.

Don’t know if different flavours have different cals or if my fitness pal has it listed different to the tub, but like I say I only track for a rough guide. It’s 30 odd cals to the good the way you have it calculated so extra win.

Edit. Just checked the tub and it’s 31g serving size at 116cal so my fitness pal has it listed the same.

@duketheslaya, to echo this, don’t ever hit first. When he hits, go for the throat, the groin, or the eyeballs. Bite and choke. Do whatever you can to end the fight as quickly as possible. In elementary school, I believed that you had to fight fair. Now, I realize that if someone wants to fight me, they’re not fighting for the sake of fighting. They’re fighting to kill me. Have that mentality and don’t hesitate, and you should be fine.

I can’t act on my impulses, but I deal with a lot of people that just need a good old fashioned ass whooping. I just wish I could facilitate it.

We have juveniles attacking officers with no repercussions. The fact that they even consider attacking us is absurd. They respect nothing. They respect no one. And nothing week happen to them at the juvenile jail.

I think we just need to work them over and declare their debt paid. Every time they break the law they get an ass whoopin. I bet they’d stop breaking the law.

I’ll bet the same.

Do biceps on leg day. Sounds crazy but science backs it

Agreed.

This is my plan.

I wouldnt fight like that unless i was seriously in danger.

Indeed

Alright! Biceps on lower body training it is.

I like the sound of semi cheaty barbell curls. I’ll start doing those and progressively overloading them. What is the bicep stretch?

bicep-stretch

This is the official reference picture. Personally I can’t get a stretch that way, but instead I’m kneeling and have more of an upright torso. By playing with the height of the bar and how upright you are you can change the degree of stretch you’re getting. Remember to always have a good pump going when you do these and even then, don’t be stupid.

Wouldn’t want to tear something
