    x2. Last summer I deadlifted once a week. Between May 30 and August 11 I gained 3/4 of an inch. They went from 15.25 to just over 16 in. I took a week off and stopped Deadlifting becuase someone in the gym told me to stop. I started training again on August 18. Over the next 7 1/2 months I gained nothing. I started Deadlifting again in April and I now have 16.5 inch arms. I didnt even train bieps directly and only did close grip bench press and dips for triceps. I did upper back work 2 days per week but not extensively on either day.

    I believe you could do some incline seated dumbbell curls, studies show that exercise caused the greatest muscle fiber activation in the brachialis because of that particular stretched position.
