LEARN THESE 5 CALISTHENICS BICEPS EXERCISES TO GROW BIGGER BICEPS (AND BIGGER ARMS IN GENERAL)!
If you've ever attempted a home biceps workout with no equipment, you've probably realised it's pretty much impossible. Sure, there are calisthenics KZfaqrs out there saying you can get big biceps with biceps push ups and other biceps exercises that involve no equipment. But the reality is that these exercises are ineffective and borderline useless.
So, what's the solution? The solution is to either get a home pull up bar or parallel bars. Yes, you read that right: you NEED equipment. No equipment biceps workouts are virtually impossible. You NEED equipment to effectively train your biceps at home. The same goes for your back. You NEED equipment to effectively work your back at home.
If you can't get a home pull up bar for any reason (e.g. because your parents won't allow you or because you're renting), then home parallel bars are the next best thing. They are an essential piece of equipment for calisthenics beginners and advanced calisthenics athletes alike because you can practice a range of calisthenics exercises on them.
In this video, I show you 5 calisthenics biceps exercises on parallel bars that you can add to your next home biceps workout. The exercises covered in the video are:
00:00 - Intro
00:50 - Close grip Australian pull up
01:50 - Reverse grip Australian pull up
02:41 - L-Sit chin up isometric hold
04:04 - Tucked one-arm Australian pull up
05:30 - Bodyweight bicep curl
06:48 - Conclusion
These are all biceps exercises I use whenever I'm doing a calisthenics biceps workout at home. They're some of the most effective and useful calisthenics biceps exercises you can do. Here's why.
(1) They actually work. They will help you to build bigger biceps and bigger arms in general. Unfortunately, there are a load of "no equipment bicep workout" videos out there that suggest you can grow bigger biceps by using a towel with no resistance, or even by bicep curling your own leg (yes, that's really "a thing"). This is rubbish. The home bicep exercises in this video will give your muscles the challenge they need to grow so that you can ACTUALLY make gains.
(2) If you're a calisthenics beginner who can't do a pull up yet, all the Australian pull up variations mentioned in this video (as well as the L-Sit chin up isometric hold) will help you build the strength to unlock your first pull up.
(3) They will help you to increase your overall pulling strength. The strength gained doing these exercises will, of course, translate into other calisthenics exercises such as pull ups and other pull up variations.
So, if you were looking for exercises to add to your next home biceps workout then you've come to the right channel. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. Happy training!

P.S. Sorry I've been gone for so long. I've been rehabbing a shoulder injury and have been hugely demotivated. My shoulder is getting better, so I should hopefully be uploading more frequently now. Fingers crossed.
