• Biceps: 21’s dumbbell hammer curls, barbell curls, and kettlebell bicep curls focus on building and strengthening the biceps.
• Triceps: Dips and kettlebell skull crushers engage the triceps, helping to build and strengthen the muscles on the back of the upper arm.

The combination of compound and isolation exercises ensures a well-rounded workout that targets all major muscle groups in the upper body and core, ultimately improving sports performance.
