Would doing curls everyday help or hurt my biceps to grow????
i know this question sounds a little crazy, but im not sure about it....first off, i am on cycle right now if you want to check out my cycle here is the link: http://forums.anabolicreview.com/sho...d.php?t=107756 .....here comes the real question...in my apartment, i have 45lb dumbells....if i did 3 or four sets a day (probably for reps of 12) would this help me to grow, or hurt me...would my bicep workout not "shock" the muscle as much if i work it everyday....my arms are lagging, and i need help with them...any advice is appreciated
i hope you all understand my question, i know its a little confusing
Working arms to a bloody mess...

Its pretty basic... just as long as you are training progressivly. But I would add more reps to forearm work, such as hammer curls, aiming for around 12-15. And IMO, forget the machines... grab more dumbells if anything...
If you got the heart to really subject your arms to some brutal training - try an EDT type method. Never have I experienced such a great pump, and soreness days later, in my arms then what I get using this method. Even doing Holisitc-type training pails in comparison...
Here is how I apply the Charles Stanley method every other arm day - or every third... it leaves you feeling like someone beat you with a bat from your upper arms down to your forearms... so don't do it too often - dependent on your training level...
You want to keep the reps at about 10-15 - so adjust the load as you go. But the first 5 minutes of each should be relatively easy.
Superset A, 20 minutes (not 10... not 15 - 20 mikes!)
[A-1] Standing Barbell Curls, around 10 reps
[A-2] Rope Tricep Extensions, around 12-15 reps
Rest 10 minutes - or once the swelling goes down... then...
Superset B, another 20 minutes
[B-1] Tricep Cambered Extensions, around 10 reps
[B-2] Reverse Grip Cambered Curls, around 12-15 reps
If someone asks you to work in while you are dripping with sweat going from one station to the next - knock his ass on the floor! People ask me. "How many sets you have left?" My response is something like, "... about 10 more mikes brah!" Then they leave you alone... if they pursue, "Can I work in?" Then I say, "If you can keep up!" And then you trample over them!
