You don't need to use weights for exercises that are bigger than your arms. You can also use soup cans and water bottles as weights. To build mass, you have to push your arms past their limits. Although these techniques are not suitable for beginners they can be very effective. To build your arm muscles, follow these simple steps: * Perform the following home exercises to strengthen your arms:

o Leg swing: Start by standing straight, with your arms bent. Then, raise your hands to the sides and place your palms on either side. Move in a circular motion with your feet planted. Do not forget to tighten your core and squeeze your quadriceps. Then, hold a barbell over your head, and then bend your knees to a 90 degree angle. Now, try to hold the weights over your chest and pull them towards you.

* The leg swing: This is where you extend one leg back and lift the other. Focus on your triceps when performing leg swings. The handstand requires that you hold the weight at your head. Be sure to hold the biceps as tightly as possible, then slowly lower them to your head. These exercises are great for building bigger arms, even without weights.

o The handstand involves you putting your arm behind your back. The other arm will be used to support the handstand. You must then stand parallel to your floor and simultaneously hold the other side. This makes it difficult for your forearms, which will make it harder to support your weight. It will build your biceps, and also strengthen your arms. You can do biceps curls by holding a vacuum cleaner in one hand while the other holds it.

The armstand: This classic exercise is for larger arms. You can use dumbbells, or any other equipment at your home. For example, you can use a brick, a can of soup, or a water bottle. One hand can be used to perform this exercise, provided you have a straight back. It will strengthen your core and improve your posture.

One arm pushups: The most effective way to build your biceps without weights is to perform one-arm pushups. To hold the object, extend your elbows. This will force you to use your biceps as support. If you find it difficult to do, you can perform the handstand with just one arm. Aside from being an excellent arm workout, the handstand will make you look good.
