I was wondering if you train your abs how many days rest period should you give them.
Plus if you work out your biceps and your arms get locked (i.e you cant fully extend them due to soreness) how many days do you wait before retraining ?
Finally whats the best technique for getting biceps bigger any tips or tricks of the trade that u guys could suggest would be helpful…

Dumbbells are an excellent way to develop big biceps. They are actually the easiest and most efficient bicep builder. So let’s get to it. Workouts with dumbbells for big biceps!
The first bicep dumbbell workout will consist of standing curls. Simply grasp each dumbbell at your side, palms facing the side of your leg. Start with one arm and curl it up, keeping your elbow in. Imagine just raising your forearm. When you reach the halfway point twist your wrist so your palms are now facing the front of you. Continue curling up, then lower down slowly. Do the same with the other arm, and continue to alternate. Standing dumbbell curls are amazing mass builders and can put some serious muscle bulk on your arms quickly.
Next, for the workouts with dumbbells for big bi’s, lets work on the peak of the bicep. Concentration curls work to really make the lower bicep "pop out", looking shapely and ripped. The seated concentration curl can work for this. We perform the exercise with a lighter weight where we can get around 12 repetitions. These are performed slowly, concentrating on the isolation of the bicep. When you are seated, bend over, dig your elbow into your inner thigh for stability and isolation, then simply curl the weight up. With seated concentrations you want to do one arm at a time rather than alternate as you did with standing curls.
These are two core workouts with dumbbells for major bicep development. Dumbbells can be used extremely well for all other areas of the body. Strong chest, broad shoulders and well developed legs. Look into a dumbbell manual for complete instructions and diagrams for getting a ripped physique strictly with dumbbells.

sorry, this is an answer to your last question about chiropractic experiences. I didn’t fully address it. Chiropractic does not cause stroke, but patients come in with symptoms already that they’re not aware of. I think it’s terrible what happens, but it also happens at the hair dresser’s, when DOs(like an MD) do manipulations, or anyone that puts too much rotation into the adjustment. But that is not what chiropractic is taught today, but ppl can pick up bad habits. That’s why you need to get a good recommendation to one. There is research on chiropractic and stroke:
A new study finds there is no evidence of excess risk of stroke following chiropractic spinal manipulation, according to a February 2008 report in the journal Spine. In the study, researchers noted that patients are no more likely to suffer a stroke following chiropractic treatment than they would after visiting their family doctor’s office.
The study goes on to say that any observed association between a vertebrobasilar artery (VBA) stroke and chiropractic manipulation is likely due to patients with an undiagnosed vertebral artery dissection seeking care for neck pain and headache before their stroke.
The issue of stroke being associated with a chiropractic neck adjustment focuses around the very rare occurrence of a tear to the vertebral artery as it passes through the sides of the upper cervical vertebrae and into the base of the skull. An injury to the arterial wall may lead to formation of a blood clot, which can break free and travel upward until it lodges in one of the smaller blood vessels in the base of the brain, blocking circulation.
There are many reports in the literature of cervical artery dissections (CADs) occurring after everyday activities that most people would consider non-traumatic, such as turning the head when driving, having your hair washed at a beauty salon, or sleeping on your stomach.
A research paper published in 2001 in the Canadian Medical Association Journal found there is only a one-in-5.85-million risk that a chiropractic neck adjustment will be associated with a subsequent CAD and stroke.
In this new study, the Canadian team looked at nine years of data in Ontario, and found that only 818 patients with a VBA stroke were reported among a population of some 11.5 million people. Unlike a previous study in 2001 that investigated the relationship between chiropractic visits and vertebral artery stroke, researchers in this study also studied visits to family doctors that preceded this kind of stroke.
According to the study’s authors, “Because the association between chiropractic visits and VBA stroke is not greater than the association between PCP visits and VBA stroke, there is no excess risk of VBA stroke from chiropractic care.”
Stroke Warning Signs
While there are no standard screening procedures to identify patients with neck pain who are also at risk of a VBA stroke, health care providers should be aware of the following stroke warning:
* Sudden difficulty speaking (slurred speech) understanding what people are saying
* Sudden onset of confusion or altered mental status, such as loss of consciousness, or recognizing people who should be familiar
* Sudden numbness or tingling on one side the face or body, or both
* Sudden onset of dizziness or unsteadiness, loss of balance or coordination, or both
* Sudden difficulty walking or standing upright
* Sudden severe headache
* Sudden severe unexplained upper-neck pain
* Sudden trouble with vision or sight
I hope you make an educated decision and you feel better!
