    Work out

    Since I'm skinny as fuck I want to grow some muscles, especially biceps because mine are very small. I don't have any materials to work out so I had to be creative, I filled a chest with a handle with my schoolbooks. It weighs 8 kilos now. I just lift it till the handle is at my chests heigth and then I lift it down. I do this like 15 times with each arm. But idk if this is effective. I also do like 20 push ups a day, but again idk if that's effective. Do you guys know if those methods are effective? If not; what should I do then?

    tl;dr: How to train my muscles, especially my biceps?

    20 pushups a day... try a little more, I do army style 200 pushups, and if you don't know how to do pushups then search on how to do a correct pushup.

    If he does pull ups with wrists facing him, it trains the biceps.

    Certainly there is some bicep work in there but pull ups mainly work your back. I've never heard of anyone doing pull ups to work their biceps solely...

    Well your gunna eat a little bit more than usual, like protein which will fill the gaps after you exercise giving you more muscle. Since your body is ectomorph try to do less cardio since you don't want to get more skinnier. Try simple workouts, like pushups, curl ups, then after a week start advancing. Try doing a long term exercise which is better. It'll take you a while before you start seeing results but at the end it'll be worth it.

    Depends when you have free time, you don't wanna do it right after you eat and after you exercise you can take a shower to feel refresh and all good.I work out from 7-8, Like an hour is good enough exercise. Also make sure to take like a 2 minute break to drink some water so you can re-hydrate.

    Do you know how long it can take to become more muscled by just doing those things you said earlier?
