I always thought it was just me..but a few friends of mine have stated recently that my arms dont seem to look proportional to the rest of my body...my chest i think makes them look smaller and my shoulders....I was wondering if there are any special routines to do to help?...should i lay off the chest?...I do hit my back, legs, deadlifts, everything...any1 have any advice....i will try to get some pics up my digital cam isnt workn right now
Hit bi's twice a week if they're lagging. First time you hit them, use heavy barbell curls and hammer curls. Then in your second day use a couple isolation exercises with lighter weight and more reps. Concentration curls are my favorite if you want a great peak done standing and not against your leg. For tri's do close grip bench press for pure mass of the tri's then isolate them with rope pull downs and really hold the stretch at the bottom. Dips are good too. This should put some size on your arms.
yeah,i jus recently started doin heavy concentration curls and its working pretty good,tears my bis up.
but remember your tris make up alot of your arm size so remember to hit your tris hard too.
I haven't looked back since I started weighted dips. I found they really work for me. My arms have never looked bigger.
And concentration curls def my favorite Bi exercise.

sorry about the double post..my bad
I'm not a big believer in training a muscle group twice in one week, but if your arms are lagging, you should give it a go and see how it goes. You need to switch up your training days to give you at least 3 days rest. But as smak says, go heavy with compound movements in the first workout. Then lighter isolation movements for mor reps on the second.
