The Brewer Biceps Blast

The Search for Perfect Arm Balance & Symmetry With The Future of Bodybuilding, The "PHENOM" Trey Brewer

By Brendan Ahern

When you're 22 years old and walk around at a mammoth off-season weight of a solid 325 pounds and sport 23-inch biceps, it's pretty obvious that not only are you a bodybuilder, but that you also know what you're doing in the gym. Such is the case with Trey Brewer. After all, his 23-inch biceps are larger in number than his actual age! Suffice to say that when it comes to blasting biceps, despite his young age, Trey is an expert. That's why I decided to catch up with him and find out exactly how he trains his bis. So if you're serious about building some big guns, get on board and don't take his advice lightly!

Before we get into Trey's routine though, it's important that we understand a little about the anatomy of the biceps, as a means to deciphering how to manipulate your biceps into shirt-popping eye attractions. After all, you can't build a sky rise without a solid foundation.

Though the biceps have several functions, the two most important for bodybuilding purposes are (1) to flex the elbow and (2) to rotate the forearm. In terms of anatomy, the biceps brachii is composed of two muscle heads: the short head, or inner biceps, and the long head, or outer biceps. Knowing that, it stands to reason that each muscle head must be trained as a separate entity, requiring various training methods for maximum growth. That's why one of the keys to a complete and effective biceps routine is incorporating a blend of both compound and isolation movements. Whereas compound movements for biceps are primarily for adding mass and usually done for 6 to 10 reps per set, isolation movements focus on shaping the biceps and are done with lighter weights, typically for 12 to 15 reps per set. Using both of these types of movements in your biceps training will not only help build the size you want, but will also give you the balance and symmetry you need for complete biceps development, and to impress everyone. Herein lies the basis for Trey Brewer's biceps blasting routine. Though Trey switches up his biceps training from time to time, this core principle remains the same.

So here is Trey Brewer's biceps blast. Though following this routine won't guarantee you 23-inch "PHENOM" guns, it will definitely take you in the right direction! Good Luck.
