1/2 inch in 5 months

[protobe]

I'm about at 15in (arms) not bad considering a whole year ago they were 14 and 5 months ago 141/2. I just train my tris 2-3 times a week and same for bis. I listen to my body and normally i can get 3 a week in but if i'm sore i go for 2 a week. I've thrown those dips in and i feel great. I want to get to 16 by my 16th b-day. That way I should be on track and work to get em up to 20 at my 20th or 21st b-day. Oh and I'm not jealous of my friend cause he's put on a whole inch in his arms off of a 20week cycle. and he will lose most of it like he did before. I've noticed that weight has nothing to do wiht it its all measurements and you can gain 5 pounds while putting on a whole inch in arms. Send comments please

I bet if you started training your arms once a week, they would grow even faster.

Ya i gained a good 1/2 to 3/4 inches or more since i came back to school.. They are a little over 17 right now... want to get up to 19" by march, but we'll see.., and i also have never juiced... and you shouldn't either, wait a good 4 or 5 years and do a lot of researched on them.

If your only doing 3 sets, hittim em twice a week is fine.

Personally I prefer doing 6-9 sets once a week. But, to each his own.

WTF are you trying to say?

I would hit them once a week for about 5-10 sets directly and hit them HARD! You'll basically be hitting each group twice a week since you should be training back and chest also, and that complements the direct excercises nicely and keeps them growing. Give it a try and see what happens, learning what works for your body is crucial at your age. Remember, up your intensity and weights, not your amount of training.

no offense, but the real training that you need involves an english and grammar class.

As they say it on the chat board 'PWNED!"

Congrats on the gains.
Hit up a 5x5 or other routine from the training stickies if you're wanting to change up your workouts. You'll at least have some good guidelines and a template to work from. That way you'll have less chance of doing something wrong like overtraining, etc.

What do you mean hit tris on a seperate day than chest?? i though the whole reason you train tris and chest 2gether is because tris are worked a lot in bench. So wait what you are telling me is every day do one bodypart 5-10 sets ?? should i be sore all week?? and also doing 3-4 exercises is okay??(3-4 exercises whilie doing a whole 10 set workout) thanks a lot

I might just do what you are saying like next month finish this month up and then start this new routine while on creatine

??????????

 

[silver_shadow]

well- i'll tell u what i do- chest- two exercises flat bench 5x5 and some other exercise 2x8-10. then after that its shoulders, military press 5x5 and again another exercise. THEN, i move onto tri's close grip bench 5x5 + another exercise in a similar way. that's it. that's all i need for tri's a day- chest and shoulders workout my tri's so i don't have to worry too much. bi's get worked out similarly with back + a 5x5 + 2x8-10 specifically for bi's. u know what they say- to basically concentrate on the bigger muscles- the smaller ones WILL grow.

I don't believe that he is a real poster.

 

[silver_shadow]

umm... why not- it seems that he'd have ALOT of time to waste in that case.
