Workouts

Hint: Barbell and dumbbell exercises use the movement path of your body, while machine exercises follow the movement path of the machine. Don't use exercises, that cause pain or any discomfort, because that can be a signal that the exercise is not effective or productive.

Considerations


Injuries
1
Biceps Exercises
Too heavy weights result in chronic pain in the Biceps tendon near the elbow Only hand palms with 45° bent arms can fully supinate Therefore Barbell Curl and EZ Curl Bar Curl always hurt your wrists Palms facing forward surely cause wrist pain


Hand palms with outstretched arms won't supinate more than medially

Thumbs ligaments pain near the carpal bones
2
Triceps Exercises
Too heavy weights result in chronic pain in Triceps tendon near the elbow Hand palms with 45° bent arms won't pronate more than medially Therefore Barbell and EZ Curl Bar Extension always hurt your wrists Inflamed Triceps tendon also known as tendinitis


Arms above or in front of your head train the long head of the Triceps Elbows by the sides of your body train the lateral head of the Triceps Reverse Grip Cable Bar Pushdown trains the medial head of the Triceps Small tears in the Triceps tendon aka tendinose

Injuries

Workouts: inhale when lowering the weight, exhale when raising the weight. Use continuous tension and add weight system with 100, 100, 40, 20 repetitions. There should be at least 48-72 hours rest for each musclegroup between two workouts. Do not exercise when you have an injury!
Disclaimer: muscles and tendons are very susceptible to injuries due to bodybuilding exercises and I herewith state, that I am not responsable for injuries. You should take in account lower back pain and risk of lumbar disc herniation, abdominal rupture and groin rupture when bodybuilding.
Heavy Squat and Deadlift can cause your vertebrae to break with not be able to walk as consequence. Heavy Bench Press damages muscles around the shoulder. Barbell Row with pulling your hands to the lower abdomen can make the vertebrae to shift resulting in severe lower back pain.
