    Big bicep bros gtfih

    Genetics aside, how'd you blow up your arms? What sort of frequency/volume/rep range/exercises do you feel made the biggest impact? What's your morphology?

    Just do curls and make sure you're actually going to failure, last rep(s) should take several seconds (SRS) [none of that 'leave one rep in the tank' for accessories']
    9-12 sets/wk is enough over 2-3 sessions
    Squat PR: 235kg
    Bench PR: 170kg
    Deadlift PR: 280kg
    @78kg

    If you have chit genetics theres no tricks or gimmicks just hard work focusing on getting stronger.
    Rn my arm day starts w barbell curl ramp up to max 2-5reps
    I warmup to 115lb. Rep it out untill failure, and the next set will be 135x?, using cheat for the last rep or 2. Then drop to 115 & its done. 3 hard sets total.
    Rest is gravy, some hammer curls & preachers, but i keep chit heavy (6-10reps to failure)

    Fkn around with dbs & focusin on form & pump for your main work gets u jack.

    One of my freinds pretty much just does cardio and trains biceps, I swear his biceps and calves are his only impressive bodyparts. He trains biceps like 3 times a week and does 4 hour cardio sessions.

    Only ever seen him do curls and half rep bench pressing.

    If you're lifting purely for aesthetics doing your arms/chest is the only thing that matters dead srs.

    Bitches love biceps.

    And he's still fat, he would do a 4 hour cardio session and then go home and eat a pile of chocolate bars, candy, potato chips and pop, I swear it must have been 3000 calories or more, he got extremely upset when I asked him what the point of all that cardio was if he was just gonna eat it all back.

    I mean he literally had a mountain of it sitting beside him while he sat on the couch watching a movie.

    Be careful with curls.
    Better to repeat with lower weight then tearing off your muscles.
    I use 15kg dumbbells now, started at like 2kg 2 months ago.

    Read a story somewhere about a guy using 50kg dumbbells.
    Scared me.

    Mine are currently 18.5 inches cold. Biceps are hard for me. But doing unilateral work with cables has been the best by far. I just cant feel it in my biceps with barbells and dumbbells. I feel like I have impressive triceps though. And that's mostly from pressing. As my bench gets stronger, my triceps get bigger. I do throw in some hammer grip db skull crushers after bench and focus on progressive over load in the 8-10 rep range. Currently doing 3-5 sets with 70 lb db

    But I hit my biceps 2x a week. On exercises I can feel the contraction, so whatever you can feel. Do some sets of 6-8 reps. Some sets are like 8-12 and some are 15-20+. I go until they stop working and no longer contract


    That said I feel like arms are a weak point for me. I have a well developed back and chest but arms seem to be lagging in comparison. I have a long wingspan.
