louden_swain - Arms are still sitting at 17.5 right now, but 3/4 of my arms is Triceps I just can't get my Bi's to grow.
SAGAT - Yup, I've been at it for 3 and a half now... It'll be 4 years this september. I'm a pretty compulsive guy so when I started training I went all out from day one. I had a good friend who showed me how to eat and train right. Thank God for him, cause I would have had no clue if he had not helped.
DrBones - I'm 5'6 and I weighed in today ay 198lbs, Arms 17.5”, Quads 26.5”, Waist 30”, Chest 48” Calves 17”
needsize - Hah, I might not be the biggest guy around but I do pretty good with the heavy lifts. My forte is and has allways been pushing exercises, I have short arms and they're all Triceps. So bench and millitary have allways been easy for me.
vinylgroover - There is nothing wrong with machines at all, I use them all the time. I know on Elite it's En Vouge to use all free weights, but I could care less; I use what works for me.
argent - Yeah, I know what you're saying about the overtraining... I'm pretty in touch with my body so I know when it needs to heal.
WizKid25 - Thanks dude

Ingram, my arms are about the same size.
They are really starting to grow since I cut down on the volume. Since I follow DC training, I am getting more rest. The training sessions are absolutely brutal. Here is a typical arm session for me:
1. Lying Triceps Extensions (skull crushers) - 1 x 12
warmups: 70lbs x 8, 90lbs x 5, 110lbs x 3
building set: 130lbs x 12, this includes 9 then rest pause 3, then a static hold at bottom.
2. Barbell Curls - 1 x 12
warmups: 70lbs x 8, 90lbs x 5, 110lbs x 3
building set: 140lbs x 12, this includes 10 reps, then 2 rest pause, a static hold at top, then a controlled negative
My arms are totally blitzed from one set!!! Of course, I add variety by using close grip bench presses, parallel dips, preacher curls, and dumbbell curls.
hopefully a few months from now I can reach 18". To do this I must eat an insane amount of food. Let me know how your training progresses.
