There are many exercises for bigger arms that don't require the use of weights. You can also use soup cans and water bottles as weights. To build muscle, however, you must train your arms until they fail. These techniques aren’t for beginners but can still be very useful. These are some tips to help you build arm muscles. (*) Perform the following exercises at home to build arm muscles.

o Leg swing: Begin by standing with your arms bent, and then lift your palms on each side. Make sure to move in a circular motion and keep your feet firmly planted. You should squeeze your biceps while doing the exercise and keep your core tight. Keep a barbell in front of your head. Next, bend your knees at an angle of 90 degrees. Now, hold the weights above your head and pull them towards yourself.

* The Leg Swing: This involves moving one leg backward and lifting the other. Concentrate on your triceps and not the biceps while performing leg swings. Handstands require you to keep the weight above your head. You should hold your biceps tightly and then slowly lower them to the floor. These exercises are great for building bigger arms, even without weights.

o The handstand: This exercise involves putting one arm behind your back. To hold the other arm up, you must stand parallel to the ground while simultaneously holding the other hand. Your forearms will have a harder time supporting your weight. It will build your biceps, and also strengthen your arms. Holding a vacuum with one hand is a good way to do biceps extensions with the other arm.

The armstand: This classic exercise is for larger arms. You can either use dumbbells at home or other equipment. For example, you can use a brick, a can of soup, or a water bottle. One hand can be used to perform this exercise, provided you have a straight back. This exercise will increase your bicep strength and improve your overall posture.

One arm pushups: The most effective way to build your biceps without weights is to perform one-arm pushups. For this exercise, extend your elbows outwards and use your biceps as a support for the object. This will force your biceps into a compensatory mode. You can also do this with one hand if you have trouble. Aside from being an excellent arm workout, the handstand will make you look good.
