For example, with the biceps, we use a hammer grip to avoid developing the short part of the biceps \u2013 the part that gives you the \u201cbump\u201d which Khloe doesn\u2019t want.\u2019 <\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"23\" class=\"css-1ood0zq emevuu60\">Is it just about arms that look good, then? \u2018No, it\u2019s first and foremost about workouts that help Khlo\u00e9 stay as functional as possible,\u2019 Joel says. \u2018She trains to be able to keep playing with her kids and to be able to do whatever she wants, for as long as she wants.\u2019 <\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"27\" class=\"css-1ood0zq emevuu60\">Below, he shares his go-to arm workout with Khlo\u00e9 for you to try, plus the three arm exercises he believes are most effective for building arm muscle \u2013 and which Khlo\u00e9 never skips. <\/p>\n<p>Khlo\u00e9 Kardashian&#8217;s 45-minute arm workout<strong data-node-id=\"30.0\">Warm up:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"34\" class=\"css-1ood0zq emevuu60\"><strong data-node-id=\"34.0\">Superset<\/strong>: 4 rounds of 10 pushups + 10 plank shoulder taps.
