To improve the development of the upper arms, specifically the biceps, focus on lifting (supinating) the pinky side of the hand higher than the thumb side of the hand during the concentric (lifting) phase, as well as the eccentric (lowering) phase, of the movement. Performing the movement in this manner produces a greater stimulus and more recruitment of muscle fibers, which is the ultimate goal when trying to develop the body.
The main reason this brings greater results is because it helps create more tension in the biceps.
This isn’t always black and white, as there are specific times and reasons for allowing the pinky side to dip below the thumb side of the hand. One instance being when you are performing a hammer (neutral grip) curl.

Healing with Sexual Energy: Sex for Health, Relationships and Spirituality by Walter Last, Part 12:
The Oneida Community
One early pioneer was John Noyes from the Yale Divinity School. Noyes came up with the concept of Male Continence as a consequence of his wife losing four premature children in the first six years of their marriage. After struggling with self-imposed celibacy, he eventually found that he as well as his wife greatly enjoyed non-ejaculatory sex. He told friends about it, and in 1848 they founded the Oneida community in upstate New York, which eventually grew to 250 men and women.
Intercourse without ejaculation was a cornerstone of the Oneida Community. Young men learned self-control from post-menopausal women. Noyes also realized some spiritual implications for Male Continence. In order to create the Kingdom of Heaven on earth we must not only strive for reconciliation with God, but also bring about a true union of the sexes. He even suggested that the frequent unease after ejaculatory intercourse lies at the heart of the Judeo-Christian association between sex and guilt.
Because of statements from some medical authorities that non-orgasmic sex is harmful a large number of members of this community were examined by a medical practitioner and found to be “in perfect health, happy and in complete harmony.”

"But hypoglycemia also tends to decrease the conversion of T4 to T3, so heat production often decreases when a person is hungry. First, their fingers, toes, and nose will get cold, because adrenalin, or adrenergic sympathetic nervous activity, will increase to keep the brain and heart at a normal temperature, by reducing circulation to the skin and extremities. Despite the temperature-regulating effect of adrenalin, the reduced heat production resulting from decreased T3 will make a person susceptible to hypothermia if the environment is cool." Raymond Peat, PhD
Tips to ensure you are regulating blood sugar to stay warm:
1. Eat protein, fats and sugar with every meal.
2. General rule of thumb is sugar, then protein, and then fat in terms of ratio and quantity in the meal (depending on where you are coming from you might not be able to follow this breakdown at first and need to slowly adjust to it.
3. Eat within 30 to 60 minutes upon waking up.
4. Manage and reduce stress as much as possible and decide what is in your control and what is not within your control. Stress = under or over eating, not eating proper ratios for you, too much physical demand from training, work, life, relationships, thoughts etc and not enough nourishment, self care, self love.
5. Get enough sleep and at the right times for you. Recovery is very important.
6. Your thoughts and environment can affect body temperature regardless of all the above steps. Mindset is paramount.
7. Salt is your friend. Salt to taste and make sure you are getting enough.
