Victor Martinez is an IFBB professional bodybuilder and the second Dominican bodybuilder to turn professional, the first being Tony Domenench from Puerto Plata, who turned pro in 1995. Despite tribulations throughout the years over his professional career, Victor Martinez remains one of the top-tier bodybuilders for this generation. In 2016 he showed some massive improvements in his overall physiques.
Victor released a video courtesy of Muscle & Strength revealing his two favorite exercises to build the ultimate peak. Give them a shot and let us know what you think!

Building the peak in the bicep is a genetic Factor.
You either have it or you don’t
Exactly. “Shaping a muscle” is bogus.
Oops, you let the cat out of the bag. Unfortunately too many people don’t understand this. It’s the same with calves. Either you have it or you don’t.
Michael Diamond hahaa, saw this after my post.
Michael Diamond, Same with breasts. Most of these fitness models would look bad if they did not have implants.
Cable curls and preacher curls. 21s.
No.

I think Victor should have beaten Jay at the 2007 Olympia
I think most people lean that way.
Bicep peaks can’t be built. Bicep shape is determined by genetics
I have been graced with such muscle bellies/insertion. Although, to be honest I also enjoy those with fuller/more round muscle bellies like a Phil heath or Roelly Winklaar.
You cant change where your muscles insert but you can change the peak and shape by working either the long head or the short head accordingly
Ray Hughes no actually you can’t and you can’t isolate the long and short head
You absolutely can put more stress on either your long or short head. Thats like saying squat stance and depth doesn’t stimulate different parts of your quad.
You are talking to a physiotherapist here. No you cannot put more stress on either your long head or short head of your biceps. In order to contract your biceps you can perform elbow flexion, shoulder flexion and supination. None of those actions can be done with just the long or short head of the biceps. There is no way to isolate one head unless you actually sever one head and therefore place all the stress on the other head. It’s not the same as the quadriceps as the some heads of the quadriceps cross both the hip joint and the knee joint and other cross just the knee joint making most of their actions occur at two joints simultaneously in compound movements and making the situation more complicated. So no it’s not the same thing and no you cannot isolate one or the other head of the biceps. And even if you could it would not produce a peak in the biceps as that is a product of genetic muscle shape and the actual length of the muscle belly versus tendon at the elbow joint.

So who is victor Martinez?
In 2007 he was the best in the world.
Literally got robbed by Jay Cutler in 07
I’ve been around this sport for over 30 years I must have missed him
Yeah he was kind of short lived due to some jail time and someone murdering his sister… he’s trying to make a comeback but the legs and skin aren’t cooperating in his older age. He was in the first Generation Iron movie
He is Puerto Rican. Seems like a nice enough fellow who got a few bad breaks.
Viliyan Metodiev
Tren extensions and nolvacurls
You guys post the most ridiculous trash! You can’t “build the peak” – your biceps either have a peak naturally or they don’t. All you can do is add to the size of the muscle shape you have genetically. You can not “build the peak”. Fact. This page is garbage.
I saw this guy in first generation iron movie & felt sorry for him. He has gone through hell
Synthol and what else?
