    How many days on biceps?

    how many days a week does everyone work biceps.
    lets say you are doing 3 sets of 8 on concentration curls and 3 sets of 8 on the curl bar. how many days a week can you do this without overworkign yourself?

    I hit mine twice... but its different for everyone. I usually do a light workout with my back on tues. about 6-8 sets. And then on friday ill hit bi/tri for 12 sets.. heavy.

    Depends on how ya feel.... try this, get a tape measure.. work em out early in the week.. next morning measure. Then measure ED until you see the measurement go down slightly (should be about 3-4 days) thats when you hit em again.

    I would always do mine twice a week on one week and three times a week on opposite weeks. Some called me foolish until they seen the gains. But if they did not feel like being worked out, I would not push them.

    I usually stick to once a week, although an occasional twice a week is good.

    Once a week and many times twice. Remember, the bi's can recover quicker therfore, train them more.

    twice a week, hitting them different ways each days. i like to do this:

    1st bi day:
    Close grip barbell curl 4 sets, 6-10 reps
    One arm dumbell preacher curl 4 sets, 8-10 reps
    Zottman curl 3 sets, 15 reps, 10 reps, failure

    2nd bi day:
    Wider grip barbell curl 4 sets, 6-10 reps
    Concentration curl 4 sets, 8-10 reps
    Incline curl 3 sets, 15 reps, 15 reps, failure

    I try to hit bi's about 4-5 days apart from each other and latley I have been seeing some really good improvements in my bi's.
