You cannot increase the length of your bicep, it is physically impossible as it is a purely genetic factor, however you can increase the size in a way that gives the illusion that the bicep muscle has lengthened, when realistically it has only gotten bigger. Preacher curls are the best way to increase bicep size in that way.You will need a preacher bench and an E-Z bar. Grab the bar and hold it in shoulder position, breathe in and lower the bar until your arm is fully extended and the bicep is fully stretched. Use your biceps to curl the bar round, squeeze the biceps hard and hold in the position until the biceps are fully contracted, then repeat.

Would the triceps or biceps be bigger when lifting weights?
Many people have the misconception that biceps play an important role in Weightlifting. The biceps muscle is relatively unimportant in good weightlifting technique. The force for lifting and accelerating the bar is produced in the legs and the quadriceps is the main muscle group. The triceps play an important part in holding weights overhead. The function of the tricep is to straighten the arm, and in holding a weight overhead the elbows must be locked out and the triceps make this happen.
