    A way to train biceps with no equipment

    This is good stuff, very innovative. Like the man said, if it's just you and the floor this is great.

    The best body weight exercise for the biceps are chins, palms in.

    Have to agree there. Between pull-ups and push-ups, you really don't NEED weights.

    Dips are preferable to push-ups in my opinion.

    I find it hard to believe that you can't find anything to hang from and pull yourself up on to. Be creative.

    or monkey bars, or a tree, or pipes in your basement that weren't meant to hold bodyweight and eventually burst causing a toxic gas leak that kills you

    I find that maybe only 1 in 50
    can
    climb up a rope 15'-20'
    don't drop off .........climb down
    using the arms only
    the more times the better

    but this is a little more than isolating the biceps
