“Exhale when you exert” is the rule of thumb to remind you of the proper breathing technique while doing sit-ups. That means, as you exert your upper body, lifting it up off the floor, you should be exhaling. For added muscle recruitment, exhaling forcefully as you exert, even pausing for a moment at the top of the sit-up, involves maximal abdominal muscle fiber involvement as they contract to help the lungs expel the air.

Training like a female bodybuilder, Lesson 662

From LiveStrong: “The act of curling a dumbbell can train your biceps in a variety of ways. You can train them for size and strength by constantly increasing the amount of weight you are using. You can condition your biceps for endurance by limiting the amount of weight to a maximum of 66 percent of your one rep max, which is the maximal weight you can lift for one repetition, while increasing the number of repetitions. You can also train for speed by using little resistance and increasing the speed of the contracting muscle.
