I've been lifting weights for 5 months. In that time, my bench press has gained 60 pounds, my chest has gotten much bigger, and I've added tons of weight to dips, chin-ups, etc.
My biceps on the other hand have not improved. They're still at 12.5 to 13 inches and weight has gone up maybe 5 pounds (25 to 30 for standing curls). It's got to be hilarious watching someone bench 185 with such thin arms.
I've been following the recommended workouts on here; everyone says that you don't really need to add a ton of bicep work -- that they'll grow naturally with compound movements. Well, they certainly have not. I mean, I know you've got to wait a while before noticing improvement, but nothing in 5 months? C'mon.
Been eating properly, plenty of calories, plenty of protein.
As someone whose biceps do not seem to be responding to only compound movements, what can I do to really stimulate mass improvements?
Thanks
