Working Out the Arms

Everyone who ever lifted a weight wants bigger arms. You hit the gym and focus on bicep and tricep training. Then, as an after-thought, you workout the chest, shoulders and the rest of the body.

That's a no no. The arms should be worked last. You are using your arms in all other exercises so it's important not to overwork them at the beginning of the workout. Your other exercises will suffer.

Unless you split workouts or do seperate body parts on different days, something most of us cannot fit into our schedule, you are most likely doing all your lifting in one workout 2 - 3 times a week. Save the bicep and tricep movements until the end.
