Principle Of Cheating

Cheating is an advanced bodybuilding principle that when done right, can help open the doors to an anabolic muscle building paradise (R.I.P Coolio).

But unfortunately, If you've ever hired a general personal trainer, you were told..."keep your elbows tight and don't lean back" when you do your barbell bicep curls.

And with all due respect, these trainers normally have biceps that are less impressive than a 13 year old teenage boy.

The takeaway...

If you want basic results, you seek out a basic personal trainer.

If you want to build an impressive physique without compromising your health,  you seek out a  natural bodybuilding physique specialist.

When you stop to think about it, it makes perfect sense.

Alright, let's get  back to this  biceps business...

What are cheat reps?

What exactly are cheat reps?

Cheat reps are when you swing a weight past a sticking point. for example, with barbell cheat curls it's the hip drive you use to curl the weight upwards.

Of course, it's important to know that the initial swing that pushes you past the sticking point does not do much for your muscle growth.

However, the magic happens as you control the eccentric or negative portion of the movement, for 2 reasons:

  1.  You can control 160% more on the negative than you can on the positive
  2.  You Maximize hypertrophy by lowering the weight slowly over 3-5 seconds

Keep in mind that cheating is an advanced principle that should only be used by experienced lifters or followed during a muscle building program. lastly, it is not a principle that you should use every week because it may overload your central nervous system.

How To Do Barbell Cheat Curls

1. Keep your feet flat

2. Stand holding the barbell or EZ curl bar with hands shoulder width apart

3. Curl the weight up using your shoulders and hips to help get you past the sticking point

4. Hold at the top

5. Control the eccentric on the way down, taking two to five seconds to lower the weight

Important note: When done correctly, this movement provides a huge eccentric overload. If you are rising up on your toes, you’re using too much weight.
