Thanks for making fun of me, that is really helpful. Why would I come on here and lie? That would be pointless.

if ur strong enough to build your max BP to 250 in one month, you wouldnt have any trouble making some kind of gains with biceps..
250 is my MAX.. not what I do 8 reps of. 250 is my MAX that I can do 1 or maybe 2 times. When I started about a month ago my max was 235. I think my muscles are just getting used to lifting again. Back when I was in high school my biceps were pretty normal strength so I don't know why things are so hard now.
It's not like this is my first time lifting in my life... I used to lift in high school but it has been 8 years without lifting. My max back then was 285 3 times. It seems like 8 years is a long time though so I look at it as if I was a beginner. Plus back then I had a coach to tell me what to do. Now I don't know for sure if I am doing things the right way.
As for my biceps, I told you I thought there was something wrong, that's why i'm asking for advice. Like right now they are very sore and we lifted Monday, 3 days ago. None of my muscles are sore any more except my biceps. My biceps are sore and burning and stiff, like it hurts to straighten my arms out. This happens every time I do curls or pullups or anything that uses my biceps very much.
What I did on Monday with my biceps was 3 sets of 10 curls each hand using 30 pound dumbells. At the time I felt like my biceps were weak.
Also something that might be part of the problem: The first day I lifted again, about a month ago, I did all the muscles in the upper body. 5 days later I was in a boxing match with my friend. My biceps were sore at the time. After the boxing match they were more even more sore and painful. I think I overworked them. That is when they stayed sore for 2 weeks. I also had bruises appear on my biceps 3 days after the fight.
I went to a doctor and he doesn't think I tore anything, just strained the muscle or something, maybe injured it but no actual pieces torn off.
Maybe I should ask the doctor if he can hook me up with some gear
I have never used anything but protein in my life, no gear or not even creatine. I'm too scared of the law and the side-effects...
