Today we are learning how do triceps break and biceps

The push/pull split is a typical upper body workout split. You train your biceps with your back and your triceps with your chest. The reason for this split is because your biceps are involved in most compound back exercises and your triceps are involved in most compound chest exercises.


When one muscle is contracted, the other muscle from the pair is always elongated. For example, the biceps and triceps muscles work together to allow you to bend and straighten your elbow. When you want to bend your elbow, your biceps muscle contracts (Figure below), and, at the same time, the triceps muscle relaxes.



Keep In Mind: you don't necessarily have to train both biceps and triceps on the same day. But if you dodo all triceps exercises before you start biceps. Even though I'm a power lifter, I still say: of all the things we do in the gym, arm training is possibly the most fun.
