they are a good way to shock the muscle and induce some new growth. I have used them on occasion. I wouldn't base your whole routine on them though.

I have done them in part of my current program, they are a killer at the end of a workout for sure.

You can do a set or two of them to finish your workout don't do them all the time though...they are a good pump and burnout exercise...

Start holding a bb like your gonna do bb curls..... then curl it up to the half position for 7reps ... after the 7th rep hold it half way then you curl it from the half way point up for 7 reps then you finish with 7 full reps= 21 Reps..... well the first 14 are half reps...Originally posted by Anthb7210p1

I find then great to throw randomly into a low rep workout program to take your muscles out of the same cycle.

21s?
I thought they were called 36's. At least, that's what I call them. I guess that's why my arms are freaking huge!

I saw someone doing 21's on bench press. Is that a good idea, does it help any?

Might work good for getting through sticking points on the bench.
