For my height my arms are big.

Arms are the one bodypart I dont have to work direct to have them grow.

Count me in this group .... 5'10" 246lbs my arms are 19" cold and been close to 21" jacked to the roof and pumped .

Secondly if big arms is your goal then i'd spend 2/3rds of my time on tri's considering they make up the bulk of the arm , fuck the biceps , most guys overwork them anyways in which case they will never grow as they are overtrained something drastic .

Hey Tux

You and I are exactly the same size, 191 this morning on an empty stomach. 5’5” last time I measured, don’t think I want to measure again, because I may have shrunk.

Measured my arms this AM for this post and they were 16.5 cold probably 17 or 17.5 pumped.

I am also taking one gram of Test E a week, nothing else just anti-e’s, liquidex and Nolvadex.


I have that problem with skull crushers, BOTH my elbows are killing me right now.

Doing chest and arms tomorrow.

Will have to do 3 triceps exercises with out skull crushers.


I love chest & arm day, my two best body parts, did legs this morning and I already hurt, usually I get about a 24 hour break before things really get sore.

I am 1 inch taller than you two and weighed in at 195 today with 10% bf and also 16.5 arms last time I measured.

No shit !!

Even with an EZ- curl bar my wrists are screaming just thinking about it , I done this weight plus in the past but found better and more effective exersises for tri's now .

Skull crunchs super setted with close grip press use to be my mainstay for tri's but it can't be done effective without a partner . Pound out 8 to 10 skull crunchs with an ez-curl then move your grip to the inside and go for 12 to 18 close grip of the same weight . This seperates the men from the boys when the tears are rolling down your cheeks from the pain , a good training partner won't let you stop till your totaly fucked .


My peak contraction comes from donkey kicks with a barbell instead of individual dumbells . Bend forward with the bar burried behind your knees and straighten your arms back and up while remaining bent over .... a training partner can help here with the last few inchs , be carefull because his help will cause a forced contraction that gives a new meaning to the word pain .

225 for 10reps currently, one set only, those multisets are killing my elbows. As I said before I injruied my left elbow so cant do much more these days. Used to do 250lbs for 10reps. If I ever heal my elbows I`ll get there easilly, muscles are ready but joints are fucked... I shouldnt have used heavy weights on low crab diet along with 250mg od winny a day...

Damn son, that's big. I'm sure the winny didn't help your joints.
