what to do..

[Spunky]

i've posted this before.. my arms don't grow. seriously, they don't.
should i just stop doing all arm work and do nothing but the core exercises for a while??
i only work arms once a week, i've even switched my routine up. my bi's get sore but
they haven't grown in forever.

what are you doing for arms now ?

 

[DTOX]

try some volume training

supersets, alternating sets (one set of bicep exercise, set of tricep exercise, repeat 5-10 times), etc. really shock the shit out of them for 2-3 weeks

I think arms need to be done more than once every 7 days but.......you may be overtraining. Try taking a 2 week break from doing direct arm work and then come back to doing them about once every 4-5 days.
Have you done supersets, ect. to try to jump start gains?

 

[Spunky]

yes.. i've tried everthing under the sun it seems.
supersets, high intensity, low intensity, heavy weights, light weights high reps..

i took about 10 days off from working arms directly.....went back and shocked them
w/ high reps, high intensity.. alot of supersets.. didn't do jack shit i think they got smaller.

i've tried going heavy for just 6-8 reps and that doesn't even get my arms sore.

try this....called 10-10-10

get your 10 rep max and do that for 5 sets.....after that take off 10 pounds only take off weight once.....and do that for the next 5 sets.....then go home.....and try that for tris do ext with the bb on the delcine bench....and for normal tri workouts have decline in there and pulldowns on the lat machine underhand grip and overhand.....and for that 10-10-10 do it with a bb.notthing else..

I think this is actually very very good sound avice... Help yourself on those last reps... if you cheat your self out of a little weight you are still working them and working them to the limit... I really dont know what to tell you my arms grow too fast...

the steel beast gave me a good arm workout. i tried it, and my arms got sore as shit... but..
i still haven't noticed a bit of difference and its been 2 months since i've been using it.

A lot of people I know are using synthol and love it. I have never tryed it but it does seem to work well when not abused.
