NOT let arms grow ANYMORE!

[Rishi2k]

hey guys,

i've been working out for about two years and in terms of biceps am completely satisfied.

Because of my height (5'5") my arms were able to fill out quickly, and you can imagine that with too much attention on bicep workouts my arm could easily grow disproportional to my height.

So MY QUESTION IS:

currently i db curl 40lb for 8-9 reps and 45 for abt 3 reps (each arm)

what weights/exercises should i do to KEEP my biceps the same size? lower weights (20's?), same weight?


any help will be GREATLY appreciated , thanks in advance!

try 21's or i have done 24's before with an ez curl bar as this will get ur arms more toned

troll? u dont want bigger arms?

[oreoremix]

If you don't your arms to grow bigger then don't do as many excercises for them. Just keep them in shape. A lot of arm size will actually come from tris before bis.

I would keep a lower weight higher rep program. Maybe right after a baack workout for maybe 3-4 sets just to keep them in shape.

u cant tone a muscle, you can loose fat, or gain muscle, not tone with high reps.

i am in all seriousness not trolling, not everyone wants the huge look right? after 2 years i'm deffiently happy with my arm size/strength.

1st poster: thanks, i'll try that out, thats 7 half reps, then 7 of the opposite half rep, then 7 full reps, yea?

just do what you keep doing without adding more weight. Your body will get used to it and just maintain it. Cuz it wont be stressed with heavier weight so it wont need to build more muscle you know? Kinda like running if you run the same amount at the same pace everyday you wont get any faster

[Rishi2k]

alright dude i'm just asking for some advice here

so what im getting from flposjg is that just stick with my 40s/45s and i should plateau and maintain?

is there any truth to when people say you can make your muscle 'denser' in lieu of bigger?

again, really appreciated

Wait, wait, wait. You're offering advice to people in your own thread, yet you use the word "toned" when referring to bodybuilding?

You've got to be kidding me.
