There are many exercises for bigger arms that don't require the use of weights. You can even use cans of soup and water bottles to weight your arms. To build muscle, however, you must train your arms until they fail. These techniques aren't suitable for beginners, but you can still find them very effective. Follow these tips to build arm muscle: (*). Perform the following arm exercises at home.

o Leg swing. Stand with your arms bent. Next, lift your palms up on each side. Be sure to keep your feet planted, and that you move in an upward motion. Do not forget to tighten your core and squeeze your quadriceps. Now, raise a barbell high above your head and bend your knees at 90 degrees. Now, try to hold the weights over your chest and pull them towards you.

* The leg swing is an exercise that involves lifting one leg and extending the other. Concentrate on your triceps and not the biceps while performing leg swings. Handstands require you to keep the weight above your head. Hold the weight as tight as you can, and then slowly lower it to your head. These exercises can also be used to build larger arms without using weights.

o The Handstand: This involves placing one arm behind the back. You will need to use the other arm to support it. To do this, you'll need to stand straight up and hold your other arm. Your forearms will have a harder time supporting your weight. This will allow you to strengthen your biceps as well as your arms. So, try to hold a vacuum cleaner with your other hand and perform biceps curls with one arm.

The armstand: A classic exercise for bigger arms is the armstand. You can use dumbbells, or any other equipment at your home. You can also use a brick or soup can, or even a water bottle. With one hand, this exercise is possible as long your back and shoulders are straight. This will strengthen your biceps, and improve your overall body posture.

One-arm pushups: This is the best way to increase your biceps strength without using weights. This exercise requires you to extend your elbows and use the biceps for support. This will force your biceps into a compensatory mode. If you have trouble doing it, you can also perform it with one arm. You will look great doing a handstand, in addition to getting your arm muscles working.
