Mike Mentzer Recommending the "Close Grip Palms Up Lat Pulldown" as a Biceps Exercise

★ Cardinal News ★

Mike Mentzer recommends the close grip palms up lat pull down as one of the "best biceps exercise in the world" and "better than any curl you can do." Most people think of lats when they think of the lats pulldown exercise, but the exercise also works the rear deltoids and the biceps. Mike Mentzer states that the Close Grip Palms Up Lat Pull Down works at the elbow joint and the shoulder joint. He calls out this exercising as causing the muscle to contract "uniformly" at both ends. Another mechanism involved is that when a biceps contraction occurs overhead (ie., with the elbow overhead), the biceps in the raised arms brings the origin and insertion of the biceps closer together even before the biceps contracts. This puts a little slack in the biceps, which changes force production in the biceps because of the principle of the Length-Tension Relationship.  Optimal Length of Muscle - Additional Commentary from ArlingtonAthletics.com: Force generation in...

Dana Linn Bailey Describes Her Five-Five-Five Leg Extensions, AKA 5-5-5 Leg Extensions

★ Cardinal News ★

Five-Five-Five Leg Extensions by Dana Linn Bailey offering a method that focuses on variety at different range of motion positions for the four muscles of the Quadriceps group (@DanaLinnBailey/YouTube). Arlington Athletics is definitely a fan of this type of exercise for a different kind of workout for the quadriceps, which in this case serves as the four muscles that extend (straighten) the knee (Vastus Medialis Oblique, Vastus Lateralis, Vastus Intermedius, and Rectus Femoris. These four muscles combined are known as the quadriceps. By the way, the Rectus Femoris is the only quadriceps group muscle that is also a hip flexor.  Since leg extensions are done in a seated (hip flexed) position, the Rectus Femoris might not get full tension with contraction due to a shortened position that causes slack along the length of the muscle. The forward tilt of the pelvis in the seated position puts the Rectus Femoris attachment on the pelvis (the origin) closer to the knee attachment (the i...
