    standing ez bar curls 4 8-10
    seated alt incline dumbells 4 8-10
    hammer curls 4 8-10
    cons curls 3 12-15

    i like the movements but i would suggest cutting your sets in half. i do no more than 8 sets twice a week for bi's.

    Standing DB curls i think are the best "Mass" builders for arms

    Thanx all for the suggestions. I will cut my overall sets down a bit, mix in a few new exersises and see what the next few months brings. Cheers.

    Standing Barbell Curls 4 sets 12-15 reps
    Preacher curls 3 sets 12-15 reps
    Concentration Curls 3 sets 12-15 reps

    This should do the trick.

    I've read it is best to go heavy, usually first workout, for concentration curls..can anyone verify that?

    Something that I'm planning to do on my next routine for biceps.

    FYI, there is no "t" in "bicep"
