Probably the most popular muscles in our body are the biceps.
 Everybody from non-bodybuilders and athletes alike take pride in the size and definition of their biceps.
 But building biceps will take a lot more than simple exercises everyone knows about.
 If you want to build biceps that are big, well-toned, and powerful, you need to exercise them in many different ways.
 In this article I'll go through some of these exercises and the best way to maximize each one.
  The first common exercise is the standing alternate dumbbell curls.
 Start off by holding dumbbells in each hand and place them on the sides.
 With your back straight (very important), lift the dumbbell towards your shoulder.
 Make sure you are getting a good pump and you don't use the momentum from the decline to bring it back up.
 Common mistakes that are made are using your back, shoulders, or elbows to help lift the weight.
 If you are doing this in many reps of the set, then the weight is simply too heavy.
 Form is probably the most important thing in this exercise.
  The second exercise is the concentration curl.
 This exercise is in which you hold a dumbbell with one arm while sitting on a bench.
 Place your elbow inside your thigh and stabilize your position by placing your other free hand on your thigh.
 Start by placing your arm point straight to the floor and bring it up to your chest slowly.
 Again, like the dumbbell curls, do not use the momentum from the decline to help bring it back up.
  Let's talk about EZ bar curls next.
 It's best to mix in EZ bar curls as it helps you build your weaker arm to the level of your stronger arm.
 Because you are working both arms at the same time, it cuts your total work out time by 50% so you should do some sets of EZ bar curls every time you are working out your biceps.
 To do this exercise, simply lower the bar below your waist while standing straight and curl it up to your chest with your elbows locked.
  An exercise not widely used is the hammer curl.
 It is just the same as a regular bicep dumbbell curl except you hold the dumbbells sideways and bring them up sideways straight rather than curling towards your chest.
 Think of raising the dumbbell in a 'thumbs up' grip and you'll get the idea.
 Raising the weights back up straight helps you hit the outer areas of the biceps for more mass.
  In final, it's important to mix in different bicep exercises.
 While building biceps is simple, very few people get the biceps they desire because they only concentrate on one exercise and practice bad form.
 Following these exercises laid out will help you avoid mistakes and help you build biceps faster.
