How do you gain biceps and abs?

Answer 1

* Well, you can focus on those two specific muscle groups if you want by isolating them in your workouts. Bicep curls will obviously build your biceps if you choose a weight heavy enough to only do about 8 repetitions per set, for probably two or three sets. As with building any muscle, however, your diet is key. You need plenty of protein after your workout to fuel muscle recovery and building, but you also need to get enough low-glycemic carbs before your workout. Without carbohydrates, your body will break down its own muscle mass to create energy, completely defeating your workout's goals. * Abs are a little more tricky. Situps are far from the most efficient way to work your abs. I'd do some research and see what works for you. If you like the workout, you'll keep doing it, and you'll get results. However, to see your abs, you have to get rid of the layer of fat on top of them. This can be done by doing some cardio workouts, but a good full-body strength-training workout will increase your metabolism just as much. * My best advice to you is to work your entire body instead of just focusing on the "show" muscles like biceps and abs. Both are important (especially the abdominals, which are the core of your body and greatly contribute to your body's strength), but you want to have a balanced workout so you build up a balanced physique that is as functional as it is visually appealing. Get plenty of protein for muscle recovery, and swap your high-glycemic carbs for ones that take longer to digest (i.e. eat a baked sweet potato instead of a baked potato; whole grain bread instead of white bread) for efficient energy that doesn't easily turn into fat. * Also, read the labels on products. AVOID high fructose corn syrup. It's in almost all sodas (except diet and one or two specific brands like Jones Soda) and tons of other stuff. It's used as a more easily sustained, longer-lasting and cost-efficient sugar, but your body doesn't recognize it like it does true sugar. Because of this, it can't really use it and it simply becomes fat, which for guys typically gets stored on the gut, hiding the abs you've been working so hard to get.

Answer 2

Just weight lift, or if you have been doing that, continue doing that, your biceps can still grow with a low body fat (what shows your six pack).

If you really want to focus on biceps, then do curls, but don't forget about other compound exercises for the rest of your body to stimulate muscle growth and burn fat.
