This workout is not for the faint hearted. If it's to much for you, drop the second biceps tri-set and do one biceps and 2 triceps tri-sets. Grit your teeth... this will be messy!

1. Only do this workout if you have plenty of carbohydrates in your system... so the evening would be ideal as you have had the day to eat and digest your carbs. I never have carbs pre workout, so that IS NOT SUFFICIENT before you ask. If you don't have enough carbs in your system, you will not get a good pump.
2. Measure your arms before and after the workout so you can actually appreciate the pump and increased volume you get. I started the workout at 16.1 inches and finished at 16.4 inches. This is fairly typical for me as I do get insane muscle pumps, especially in my arms and my back.
3. When you do the alternating dumbbell biceps curls on the first tri-set, it will feel awful. Remember you will have a massive pump from the wide grip curls, so to all of a sudden try to start pronating, especially trying to get that peak contraction... even with the lightest weight, the burn is insane!
4. Do the abdominal work as well. This is a nice active recovery!
5. Pre workout I had Grenade .50 Calibre 30 minutes before I trained, and when I started training I had 25g of Reflex Instant Whey protein, 5g Reflex Creatine and 10g of Universal Essential Amino Acid Stack - took me about 5 minutes to drink.
