Biceps is a very important movement on the arm, and it is also the first choice for many bodybuilders to exercise. But we also need to stretch after exercising the biceps, so that the exercised muscles can relax and give them enough time to rest and grow. So do you know what exercises you can do to stretch your biceps? Let’s go take a look below!
What are the actions to stretch the biceps?
Stretch the biceps backward
The method of stretching the biceps is very simple. You only need to put your hands back and stretch the palms of your hands, then lift your chest and contract your abdomen. Stop when you feel a stretch. You will feel very sore after stretching. At this time, we can relax for a while and wait until the soreness subsides before stretching. We can also use a slightly simpler method, holding a hard object with one hand and stretching and contracting both hands continuously to achieve the stretching effect.
Lying on your back to stretch your biceps
Supine biceps stretching requires two people to complete. The person who needs to stretch the biceps lies on the ground with his shoulders on the edge of the bed. The other partner fixes the shoulder with his left hand and stretches with his right hand. Your partner will help you bend your elbows and shoulders.
Why should you stretch your biceps
People who have not exercised for a long time will suddenly feel sore after exercising or strenuous exercise. This feeling is very uncomfortable, but stretching the biceps can help us relieve the pain after exercise. If you feel soreness, don't underestimate the small movements of stretching. Stretching the biceps can help shape the muscles we can use.
