Please Scroll Down to See Forums Below Already two workouts in a row I can not get my hands to get the DOMS, although I do make them work really hard – train to failure and all that. Any reason why this is not happening to me? I feel somehow that if they do not hurt that means I trained bad. Maybe I should do something differently in the workout?

Can't get my arms to get sore

DOMS is not a rule – you can get it, and it can pass by you unnoticed. But this is not a clear indicator of you not training well or anything like that. If this got you so concerned, you can try to reduce a bit the weight, and do more reps – see if that changes anything.
I rarely get sore. Maybe my hamstrings get stiff. DOMs is a sign but you don't need to be sore or feel sore in order to grow.
@unatriabi this is my advice to you -
On your next arm workout. Drop the weights you use and REALLY focus on developing a hard mind muscle contraction. It's very easy to let momentum take over and do the movement. I find most people use way too much weight and are swinging the weights rather then mindfully contracting them.
Give that a try. I promise you will be sore after your next arm workout

I eat well after training, I rest and I have a day between sessions. I also don't do a high volume type workout.
Do very high reps for your arm workout. Include super sets too.
