    AS and Arms

    I was asked this question on Friday by a client.. he wants to focus on building massive arms and doesnt really want to build much else.. he is in good shape naturally and just wants freakish arms I believe..

    So here lies the question.. ( I do not suggest this I always try the natural way first ) if someone was to train just arms and shoulders heavy and intense .. and just train for fitness everywhere else .. would AS build them ( arms ) bigger than if they were to cycle and train everything hard and with high intensity ? or are they in essence wasting potential progress trying to make just one body part make double gains ?

    I'm assuming no, would he be lifting arms and shoulders once a week or twice? Seems like a lot of overtraining would be happening if he did strictly arms and shoulders twice a week and also all other body parts

    Hey man!

    It all depends on his genetic! Working out arms 3times a week is just ridicules.

    Size of arms is not just about arm training but training your body equally, I always destroy biceps while heavy back routine!

    training arms only will make a persons body look disproportionate , but if a person wants to thats their choice
    working out arms twice a week is possible if you do each muscle separate , id also recommend to train legs so the natural test levels stay high
