    Measurement

    Hi,

    I have been looking at some bodybuilding websites. Some were saying that their biceps are 13", 15", 18" etc...Well, is this the measurement of the biceps? Or the whole arm, including the triceps? Is it measured while flexed or extended? And, how is it measured? (I hope this question is not stupid). The circumference of the arm?

    By the way, I am about 169cm tall, about 60-65kg. How heavy should I start? Repetitons?

    Chest:
    Bench press
    Incline bench press
    Peck deck

    Shoulder
    Dumbell press
    Side dumbell lateral raise
    Seated dumbell lateral
    Upright barbell rows
    Dumbell shrugs

    Arm:
    Bicep (dumbell)
    Tricep pushdown
    Skull crusher (dumbell)

    *What is the best excecise for ouer triceps? Close grip bench press?

    Back:

    Deadlift
    Lat pulldown
    *What's the difference between pulling it to the front and back?

    There's an equipment that looks like roman chair (well, maybe it is), where you stand at about 45 degree, and pull weights, with wide grip, and a closer grip. I understand it's for the back. What's the diffeence for wide and closer?

    Thanks,
    Rahula
