Question 1

what is the best exercise to get biceps and triceps for a boy?

Accepted Answer

Depends on age: If by boy you mean prior to puberty, no specific exercise will build those muscles up.  Noticeably muscle growth (hypertrophy) occurs after puberty. The best exercises tend to be compund exercises (biceps curls and triceps extensions).

Question 2

what is the best exercise to define the split between the long and short head of the biceps?

Accepted Answer

Work the shoulder...: The long head of the biceps originates from inside the shoulder joint whereas the short head of the biceps arises form the corocoid process (front of chest wall) the long head of the biceps can be engaged by performing modified shoulder flies (elbow slightly bent, start with your hands by your side and elevate them forward at a 45 angle to the sagital plane until area are parrallel to ground).

Question 3

please help! what is the best exercise to define the split between the long and short head of the biceps?

Accepted Answer

Loss of body fat: In general the best way to enhance muscle definition is reducing body fat percentage. Seeing definition between the heads of the biceps probably is not possible without a body fat percentage under 12%, and probably closer to 10%. I hasten to add that for health purposes one does not have to have body fat percentages this low, but i understand the drive to aesthetics.

Question 4

what's a good bicep exercise?

Accepted Answer

Standard: Is still the classic biceps curl, which can be done in many, many different variations.

Question 5

how can i increase my biceps with simple exercise?

Accepted Answer

Curls: The best exercises for biceps are curls. Either with a barbell or dumbbell. Grip the bar and raise it in front of you from your thigh to your shoulder bending at your elbow.
After a few week you can start charging tickets to the gun show! just kidding. But you will see some progress.

Question 6

Question 8

what is the best way to treat an embolism on my biceps?

Accepted Answer

Depends on symptoms: How do you know you have an embolus?  What are your symptoms? (how does it hurt?).

Question 9

whats the best way to rehab a strained bicep muscle ?

Accepted Answer

Biceps strain: Start with relative rest and ice.  When pain subsides, gradual strengthening.  The biceps muscle does 2 things: helps bend the elbow and also rotates your forearm to allow you to turn your palm facing up.  Gradual, progressive resistance with light hand weights or elastic bands works great.

Question 10

hi i really need to build really big natural muscle(abs, biceps, back...)with home exercising not in the gym.what should i do and how should i exercise?

Accepted Answer

Home gym exercise: There are lots of great programs out there to build muscle outside of a gym. Believe it or not yoga is great at doing just that. Outside of that one of the best programs I have found that does what you ask is p90x. It works but you have to follow the program and depending how well you follow the diet you will be remarkably surprised in 90 days.
