Direct arm training can be a useful tool to support your strength training.
Who doesn’t want nicer arms?
If you’re short on time, focus on the meat and potatoes. But if you have an extra 5–10 minutes, you should definitely add accessory exercises that complement what you’re already building.
Oftentimes, we play it safe and stick to the 5s and 10s for months on end with these smaller muscle groups. Over time, and when appropriate, don’t be afraid to load these exercises.
Watch how much better you feel, what you can do, and how you look!
