Weird Graphic issue in blender

Sorry for so many posts. I am wondering how I could fix this problem in blender 2.79. I am trying to bend the limbs, but when I try to subdivide this is what happens. Any ideas?https://gyazo.com/51242ff0b0214b761e1cf578809e0ed0

Apply autosmooth onto normals should fix it or adding more subdivisions.

Yep. How do I do so? I am on Blender 2.79
