I’m back with a new workout video today
00:06.3
00:10.6
Today is the Day 2 of our Muscle Building Series
00:10.6
00:14.7
Those who haven’t watched the Day 1 video should go watch that first
00:14.8
00:17.4
and in today's video, we will cover
00:17.4
00:19.7
Traps and Biceps.
00:34.5
00:37.1
We will start workout with Trap muscles
00:37.1
00:41.3
and we will perform the first two exercises in supersets
00:41.3
00:43.2
of which the first exercise will be
00:43.2
00:44.9
Cable Upright Row.
00:45.0
00:47.9
You will need a straight bar.
00:47.9
00:52.5
The distance between the two hands will be 6 to 8 inches
00:52.5
00:55.5
After which stand straight
00:57.6
01:04.0
And lift the two hands and bring the bar closer to the chin
01:04.0
01:07.0
and squeeze the trap muscles while breathing out
01:07.0
01:09.6
and release it slowly
01:09.6
01:12.4
Be careful not to allow any jerking
01:12.4
01:13.9
Lift slowly
01:13.9
01:17.4
and focus on the trap muscles
01:17.4
01:24.3
Whenever you lift, both your elbows should be directed upwards
01:24.3
01:28.2
and performed slowly
01:28.2
01:31.1
You need to be perform it great control and slowly
01:42.5
01:45.4
As soon as your 12 repetitions are over,
01:45.4
01:50.1
you will start preparing for the second exercise of your superset
01:51.9
01:53.5
Dumbbell Shrugs
01:53.5
01:55.7
You will need two dumbbells for this
01:55.7
01:59.4
Keep them on your side
01:59.4
02:01.9
Bend your neck downwards
02:01.9
02:05.9
Try to lift up the both the shoulders upto as much as possible
02:05.9
02:09.6
and then release it slowly
02:09.6
02:15.2
You need to keep in mind that many people tend to use very heavy dumbbells
02:15.2
02:18.0
and they perform dumbbell shifts like this
02:18.0
02:20.6
So whenever you are performing Dumbbell Shifts,
02:20.6
02:24.5
you must bring your shoulders closer to your ears,
02:24.5
02:27.0
squeeze your trapezius muscles,
02:27.0
02:30.6
breathe out and release it very slowly
02:39.8
02:44.4
In a highly controlled manner
02:51.2
02:57.4
As soon as you’re done with 12 repetitions that will be 1 set
02:57.5
03:00.0
and the total number of sets you will perform will be 3
03:00.0
03:04.7
The next exercise for trap muscles that we will perform is Barbell Shrugs
03:04.7
03:06.9
You will require one bar
03:06.9
03:12.9
The distance between two hands should be 21 inches
03:12.9
03:15.9
If you would want to measure normally then it should be beyond your shoulders
03:15.9
03:19.2
Then lift your chest and keep your.Core tight.
03:19.2
03:22.4
And bend your pelvic bone slightly forward
03:22.4
03:25.5
Keep your lower back tight
03:25.5
03:27.7
Again just like you had performed Dumbbell Shrugs
03:27.7
03:31.3
We will lift both the shoulders and bring it closer to our ears
03:31.4
03:36.7
Squeeze the trap muscles and leave the bar slowly
03:36.7
03:40.0
Keep in mind that you cannot move your neck
03:40.1
03:44.7
And you cannot move your upper body while lifting the bar
03:44.7
03:46.8
So basically, your upper body will remain tight
03:46.8
03:49.1
Lift the bar up
03:49.2
03:52.5
Focus on the trapezius muscles
03:52.5
03:53.4
Breathe out
03:53.4
03:58.1
and let go of the bar in a controlled way
03:58.1
04:09.4
And the number of repetitions for you here will be 15 in one set
04:09.4
04:14.3
And you have to perform at least 3 to 4 sets
04:14.3
04:17.2
After training Trap muscles we will now train our Biceps
04:17.2
04:19.6
For which our first exercise will be
04:19.6
04:22.0
Kneeling Barbell Curl
04:22.0
04:25.9
In order to perform this, you must make sure that
04:25.9
04:29.0
the distance between both your hands will be 8 inches
04:29.0
04:34.4
After that, you place both your elbows inside your knees
04:34.4
04:37.3
Many people keep their elbows over their knees,
04:37.3
04:39.7
but you will not find stability
04:39.7
04:42.8
because of that and you will not be able to perform properly
04:42.8
04:45.7
So keep your elbows within your knees
04:45.7
04:55.9
After that, lift up the bar as much as you can, Squeeze your biceps and breathe out
04:55.9
04:59.1
And leave the bar slowly
04:59.1
05:02.6
Keep in mind that everytime you lift the bar up
05:02.6
05:06.1
Your hips cannot go down
05:06.1
05:09.5
Basically, your hips will always remain lifted
05:09.5
05:13.8
But remember to keep your lower back tight
05:13.8
05:18.1
And release slowly
05:18.1
05:19.5
Whenever you lift the bar,
05:19.5
05:21.6
breathe out
05:21.6
05:23.8
Target your bicep muscles
05:23.8
05:24.7
Squeeze them
05:24.7
05:27.1
