Who doesn’t like big Biceps?
I was one of those kids, who always wanted a big bicep with wide chests.
The bicep is a two headed muscle, and a bicep curl focuses on both of these heads at the same time.
Now to perform a barbell bicep curl, you have the option between an “EZ bar” or a “Straight Bar”.
The difference between both the barbells is that people with wrist injuries or pain in the wrist while performing the movement can opt for the EZ Barbell as it is softer on the wrists.
Let’s get started with some curls.
Follow the simple steps given below to start curling:
1. Hold the bar approximately shoulder width apart.Your elbows are tucked to the sides of your body at all times while performing the movement.
2. Slowly curl the weight towards your chest at a slow pace and lower back to the starting position slowly. Remember always perform movements at a constant pace so as to get the maximum benefit of the movement.
TIPS:
I love to hold the bar with all fingers under the bar or what is called a “Suicide Grip”.This allows me to use my biceps completely and avoid the use of my fore-arms during the movement.
Another important point worth noting is that DO-NOT let the elbows leave the side of your body as that keeps maximum tension on your biceps, which is the exercise.
So keep grinding! Ciao, till next week!

Life isn’t PERFECT but your makeup can be.
“To appreciate the beauty of a snowflake it is necessary to standout in the cold”: Aristotle
So be such a beautiful soul that people crave your VIBES.
Well we cannot stop the winter or summer from coming but we surely can prepare ourselves for it.
Today we shall discuss about how to get a perfect rain/winter look.
Beauty is POWER and Makeup is something that really enhances that.So it’s time to say bye to your pink lipsticks and start wearing you red lipstick.
Yes you all heard me right, RED, because it perfectly matches with your black, grey and browns of your darker winter wardrobe.
However if you are not sure about red on an everyday basis, you can choose any dark colour lip shades from your makeup kit.
Here is a secret I would like to share with all my readers.Apply moisture before you get in the shower. This keeps your skin hydrated.
Before applying your makeup, mix your hydrating cream/cold cream with your foundation.
Avoid powder base and use cream base so that it stays for long.
I would never recommend you all to wear an eye shadow that is in the same colour of your outfit.
However, you can match your makeup to your outfit only if you are wearing any neutral or light colours to give it a natural look (not advisable for raining/winter season).
You can wear bronzer all-round the year. In fact it is recommended to opt for bronzer for warming up pale, sallow winter skin.
I hope these small tricks and tips would help you get your perfect winter look.
Stay tuned for another exciting topic in our next edition until then love yourselves,spread happiness and take good care.

A really suspenseful scene where thousands are hushed from noisy, riotous yelling, to pin drop silence, is when a world boxing champion is laid low by a crafty opponent’s fist that has him on his back, out for the count!
Silence reigns, as the referee starts his count, many urging the fallen champion to lie flat, others his supporters, silently willing him to get up.
1-2-3-4-5. The hush is deafening.
6-7-8, and the world watches a stir, an eye opens and with a painful yet mighty heave the man stands, bloodied and battered but willing to fight again. Those are the moments that make history! That is the moment which separates men from the boys, and a mighty man from other mere mortals.
That moment when he dares fight back.
Rahul Gandhi lies on the ground, laid low by a massive mandate delivered to his opponent! Millions heard him on TV and other speeches taking on the might and muscle of Modi, and when he fell, with just fifty seats, it was a lethal blow.
But it’s now that he is watched. Now, when the people of India will judge whether he’s a leader or landed up as head of his party just by inheritance.
What an opportunity to get up, and stand. To gather himself, toss his head, look his opponent in the eye, shake his hand and tell him he is ready for the next fight in five years, after preparing himself a little better.
But no, he lies on the mat, sulkily telling his fallen comrades he won’t lead them.
Here’s something for you Rahul as you lie on the mat beaten and bruised:
A famous American football player noted particularly for his fierce tackling although he was much lighter than the average player was asked by a journalist that it was surprising that he didn’t get hurt.
“Well,” he said with a smile, “I think it goes back to something I discovered when I was a somewhat timid youngster playing football in school. In one game, I suddenly found myself confronting a huge opposing full back, who had nothing but me between him and our goal line”
“He looked absolutely gigantic!”
“I was so frightened, I closed my eyes and hurled myself at him like a panicky bullet, and stopped him cold. Right there I learned that the harder you tackle a bigger player, the less likely you are to get hurt. The reason is simple: momentum equals weight times velocity!”
So, get up Mr Gandhi, and show the world you’re a leader, otherwise give up your seat in Kerala, and go home to rest.
And if there are others reading this, lying beaten, get up!
As India becomes a world power, she needs men and women who dare to get up, again and again and again!
Meanwhile the count has started…!

“The best colour in the whole world is the one that looks good on you”, Coco Chanel.
Likewise, contouring taught us, where there is darkness, there must also be light.
In the last edition we had discussed about the different shapes of faces.Today we shall continue about the remaining types of face shapes as well.
“Nature gives you the face you have at twenty, it is up to you to merit the face you have at fifty”, Coco Chanel.
With the right technique,any girl can be a makeup artist. Coming back to the topic let’s start with the rectangle face.
Rectangle Face:
Contour on the corners of the either side of your forehead and across the hairline.
Contour you jaw blending up to the bottom of your ear.
Oblong Face:
Contour the lower section of your chin and it is suggested to apply blush to the apple of your cheek to make your face look wide.
Heart Face:
Contour at the temples and cheeks to diminish the width of your upper face.
Highlight your forehead and chin to draw attention to the centre of your face.
Triangle Face:
Contour on the jawline and cheeks to minimise the width.
Highlight your forehead, under eye and your chin to draw attention to the centre of your face.
Square Face:
Contour on the corners of your forehead, followed by contouring the jaw blending up to the bottom of your ear.
You can also highlight the centre of your forehead and chin as well.
Round Face:
Contour your temples, cheeks and jawline.
Highlight the centre of your forehead and chin.
So now we are done with all the different face shapes and I am sure now you all are aware about your own face shape. Enjoy your makeup,keep smiling because SMILE is the best makeup that last forever.
Always remember STYLE is a way to say who you are without having to speak but ELEGANCE is when the inside is as beautiful as the outside.
Stay tuned for another exciting topic in our next edition until then love yourself,spread happiness and take good care of yourself.
