Arming Your Biceps and Triceps

If I were writing this book for guys, the chapter on arms would be the longest one. Some authors devote entire books to this all-time favorite subject. As soon as someone says, "Make a muscle," guys do not hesitate to roll up their sleeves and flash their biceps. They even have pet names for biceps like guns, cannons, and peaks. But women often find themselves trying to hide their upper arms, feeling they are too flabby. Well, curls are for girls too and triceps training can be terrific. In women's upper bodies, the arms and hands always seem to be the weakest links. It's time to change that and create the strong, sexy arms that say, "We strength train, and we can make a muscle worth looking at, too."
