Biceps are probably the most popular muscles that everyone has on their list to improve. We all want great looking “guns” or “pipes” as biceps are referred to by many, as it looks great in t-shirts or tank tops. Especially when we are at the beach, we all want those great looking arms that we see on fit guys.
If you are doing suspension training, then these 3 TRX bicep exercises will help you improve your arms and make them look great for the summer. TRX expert Dan Long, has put these 3 exercises together and we are going to go through them so that you can add it to your current routine or change up the workouts that you are currently doing. Change is always good.
Lets go through each exercise and how to do them. Remember that working out improves your health and mood. You can skip to the video below where Dan demonstrates each exercise.
