    geez, didn't expect a tirade about being a newbie! j/k I'm a newbie on this board but i've been training for 10 years, and have tried a lot of different things, not because someone said to do them, but through trial and error have found what works best for me, that is all is what i was saying, i also realize that when someone reccomends an unorthodox training method, like doing cheat curls, certain people, who are hopelessly locked into their mindset will tell you that you must be a stupid new person, so many bros are so quick to jump on others and rip their ideas, which is why for a long time i didn't want to post here, all i said was cheating worked really well for me on a certain movement, and it was something he may want to consider, i used the arnold reference to give it some creedence

    For me biceps are like anything else.. They only grow when i go heavy with very strict form. I like my work sets between 3-7 reps for any exercise.

    i like to keep my rep range for upper body around 5-6, if i start getting 7 reps i move up in weight, i only use cheating techniques on bb curls, upright rows, and bent over row, if it didn't work, i wouldn't use it, i'm not saying it would work for everyone, but i have noticed that after 6 weeks of "cheating" i can go back to strict movements and am noticably stronger on those movements without cheating
