  • need help with arms

    Ive been having trouble gaining any size or strength on my arms. Mainly the bicep but the tris are laggin a bit also. the rest of my body seems to be comming along just fine. I do many different workouts for my arms, iv been following a good beginners diet (posted by Control) the best i can with chow hall food, and i have tried a few ideas from friends. i was wondering if anyone had some good bi and tri workouts for me.

    Post your current routine (the whole thing, not just arms)

      Sorry, my computer crashed and it took a few days to get everything back in order.
      OK, i am still reletively new to lifting heavy. only been doin it for about 9 months now. made good progress so far, like i said i saw that beginners diet you posted and follow it best i can being in the USAF. I do Bi's and chest together and Tri's and back together. bench, dumbell press, flies, dumbell curls, Hammer curls, reverse curls, inclined press(dumbells also), and try to finish with some pushups. usually variations of those sort of things. i couldnt really put a name to some of the things i do. Then cable pulldowns, skullcrushers, rows, pulldowns, shrugs, reverse flies?(i guess thats what u could call them), then i usually finish with some sort of dip. i vary alot of what i do, i try no to do too much in one day or the same thing too many times. As i said iv made some good progress, this sort of routine is really workin for me. i just need help with Bi's and Tri's.

        -If you're constantly switching up your routine it's hard to monitor your progress.
        -Also, you don't need to do alot of different exercises, especially for arms.
        -I prefer either a push/pull/legs routine or an upper body/lower body routine. You can recover better which means you can train more often and still grow.

        If I was you I would pick my favorite bicep exercise and my favorite tricep exercise and concentrate on getting as strong as possible on those two exercise over the next 8 weeks. Don't do any other arm exercises. Keep track of the weights you use and reps. Then after 8 weeks, switch to a different exercise and concentrate on it. It sounds like you're just going in the gym and kind of winging it.
