how often do you do arm excersing?

once or more than once per week?

I just started going to the gym again and I have been doing the old one bodypart per day routine with tries on chest day and bies on back day.

I only do 9 sets of tries and 6 sets of bies and I have had more growth in my arms then I ever did when I dedicated a full day to only arms, or trained them more then once per week.

Lately I've been doing them 3x a week (since I am doing an HST). Only 6 sets for bi and tri each week though. Still great size and strength gains.

Next week, will be moving into the 5x5, and plan to do an accessory exercise on M and F for each bi and tri. Hopefully the growth will continue.

None,increasing the compound lifts seems to have more of an affect on my arms then direct training ever did.

none really.

checked over last three months - zero direct triceps work and 3 sets of curls.

arms seem the same size - focusing on big lifts as well.

Zero sets for over 18 months. Literally. Enjoying the gains from the compound lifts too much to worry about them.
