Episode notes
Choose Strict Arm Variations For Better Isolation
- Use preacher, concentration, or incline curls to strictly load the biceps with minimal cheating and full extension.
- For triceps, choose overhead extensions (rope or dumbbell) to emphasize long-head work and stretch.
Hip Thrusts Are Glute‑Dominant Despite Being Compound
- Hip thrusts sit closer to isolation for glutes because they emphasize hip extension over knee movement.
- They transfer to stronger deadlifts and let you load heavy with focused glute extension.
Target Quads With Sissy Squats Or Extensions
- Use sissy squats or leg extensions to target the quads and create intense local fatigue for quad growth.
- Reserve leg extensions for corrective or low‑impact applications when squatting is contraindicated.
