If you want bigger biceps, one of the most effective methods you can use is called Blood Flow Restriction training (BFR for short), also known as Occlusion Training.

The concept is simple (and painful)...you use a band or cuff to restrict blood flow out of the muscle. This traps blood and waste products of muscular contraction in the muscle while you perform the set.

Why do you want this?

Even though it sounds counter-intuitive, to put it simply, these waste products are actually highly anabolic, meaning they send a signal to your body to increase growth processes in the target muscle.

I won't get into the full physiological details of how and why it works, but it DOES work, and this has been proven by a number of research studies on the technique.

Instead of using a complete cuff for these BFR curls, we're going to use two regular training bands.

If you don't have bands, this is my recommended source.

Bands are among the most effective and versatile training tools you can use. If your gym doesn't have any, I would definitely suggest getting some for yourself and bringing them to the gym.

Just FYI, this setup is not occlusion to the same degree as a complete cuff. However, there is actually ANOTHER reason why we're using bands beyond just the occlusion of blood return.

One of the strongest tendencies in the barbell curl is for the shoulders to hunch forward at the start, thus improving the leverage of the biceps. This is often accompanied by a lean forward then a lean back to "lever" the weight up using body movement rather than bicep action.

With the bands pulling your shoulders back, we force you out of this shoulders-forward position, making the biceps do all the work....while their blood flow is being restricted.

This is an excellent method for finishing off your bicep workout. I wouldn't recommend it as your ONLY bicep training as it doesn't directly build muscle via mechanical damage (which is also important). It contributes to growth "chemically," so to speak.
