Hi,
Today was a back/bicep day. I am on 5x5 and my exercise for bi are curls.
Having read about cheating, and realizing I was cheating on my curls by tilting my elbows and even my body forward to aid in completion. I leaned up against a wall an conciously and kept my upper-arms perpendicular to the floor.
Needless to say, I had to reduce the weight but got a better workout.
HOWEVER, my left arm could not do the same amount as my right arm. This troubles me, and one solution would be to switch to barbell curls.
Suggestions?
Also, I do my 5x5 chest with my 5x5 triceps on the same day. The chest includes flat bench (5x5), incline bench, and decline, and the triceps are lying bb ext (5x5), dips, and rope pulldowns.
I think my chest would get a better build and my triceps could use a break by switching declines with incline flys. Thoughts?
Thanks. Heavy K to any of you helpful bros who can post up some nah-ledge.
