The passion for program design is back.
Exploring new ways to train, new set-ups, new executions.
For a while, I lost the love for it, boxed in by structure and rules.
Now it’s about creating feeling, outcome and experience through training again.
The art is back, especially within my own training.
Today’s focus: bicep training done with purpose.
Started with a dual cable curl, bringing the elbows slightly forward (shoulder flexion) to get the bicep as short as possible.
👉 This increases tension where the muscle contracts hardest, perfect for a slightly heavier load and lower rep range to build control and strength. With additional stability from the support the bench provides.
Then moved into a curl from a lengthened position, where the elbows sit slightly behind the body (shoulder extension).
👉 This targets the bicep where it’s stretched, creating more muscle damage and growth potential. Used lighter loads, controlled tempo, and finished with partial reps to keep tension on the muscle longer.
Training isn’t just about lifting it’s about understanding how and why you move.
