The Monster Arm Challenge

Entering a new year often sees an influx of new gym attendees however making the gym every day can be a challenge. We have decided to offer you a great workout without leaving home. Often we get many questions from trainers the most frequent being how do I lose inches from my waist? How can I get a six pack? Another common one is how can I make my arms bigger? Well here’s one solution introducing the Monster arm challenge!

This will give you a one day arm blitz, it is a series of mini workouts that you can perform at home, ideal for a weekend when you have a day with nothing too pressing planned and the best thing is most participants’ experience gains of up to an inch in the 24 hour period; yes one whole inch from one day’s workout!

This day will consist of only arm work and is not for the faint hearted. To maximise the effects of this training blitz you need to arm yourself with the correct foods to facilitate growth, you will be performing a mini workout every hour so EAT; the calories will be needed.

Food sources rich in slow burning carbohydrates and proteins are essential, brown rice, oatmeal, sweet potatoes are all great slow burning carbohydrate options and proteins such as chicken, turkey, beef and salmon and protein shakes are all fantastic sources of protein.

Now for the workout itself!!!

Firstly, it is important that you don’t pick a weight that will give you a good pump around 60-70% of you normal 6 rep max will be ideal; You will notice in the beginning of the day that the workout is fairly easy but the workouts will become progressively difficult as the day passes.

So here goes, you have decided to take on the Monster arm challenge take a deep breath and prepare for a long day of arm pumping madness!

9am, 10am, 11am, 12am, 1pm, 2pm, 3pm, 4pm, 5pm:

Barbell curls: 3 sets x 8-10 reps
superset with
Lying Barbell Triceps Extensions: 3 sets x 8-10 reps9:30am, 10.30am, 11.30am, 12.30pm, 1.30pm, 2.30pm, 3.30pm, 4,30pm, 5:30pm
Seated Dumbell curls: 3 sets x 8-10 reps
superset with
Lying Dumbell triceps extensions: 3 sets x 8-10 reps

The day after your arms will feel like they should work but don’t seem to respond, but on day 2/3 you will be able to strike that bicep pose with nice full arms.

Remember to take that before and after measurement, Good luck JB.

January often sees a deluge of new trainers striving for an improved physique for the upcoming year however the associated cost of supplementation is often off-putting especially with the current economic climate. This is no longer the case; Monster this month is looking to support you both in achieving you fitness objectives and looking to save you some money!

If you are striving for improved performance and that pumped feeling monster had some great products to support you; Six Star Muscle are a popular American company that offers products that deliver results more importantly Monster can off these to you as special discount tiers for the coming month.

JB suggests a Creatine and Nitric oxide stack; this would be fantastic for adding some fresh pounds of lean mass. If fat loss is the aim then Rapid lean by Six Star will have those unwanted lumps and bumps incinerated, to get the best results from this lower the carbohydrate intake and drink lots of water.

The essential for any trainer is to get a good source of Protein, Monster can offer another discount on Universal Whey, this is a quality whey product at that price point that won’t break the bank, this will aid you in either fat loss or Muscle gaining objectives, stack with Rapid Lean for fat loss and Creatine and Nitric oxide for lean muscle.

If mass is the objective or you simply don’t get a chance to eat then take advantage of USN protein bars again Monster offers another special that allows you to get “convenient” muscle building calories at a fraction of the original price.

If you have slightly more disposable income and are a more experienced gym attendee then Muscletech Pump Tech N4 is definitely a product that will give you vein popping muscle bulging pumps.

Now for the unknown essential to healthy living; the Power of the Grape! Grape seed is one thing that most probably don’t associate the world of Fitness however the power of the Grape must not be undermined there are some real benefits in using a grape seed supplement. Users report improved hair eye and skin condition similar to some of the benefits of growth hormone couple this with powerful antioxidant properties and there is a real claim that Grape seed should be a part of anyone’s dietary arsenal.
