    doing back 2nd time this week..

    this week I want to try back twice, instead the 2nd time going light....if I were to do a light back work out of 12 sets and wanted to train biceps after, how many sets would be sufficiant for bi's? I was thinking 3 sets ez bar curl, 3 sets dumbell preacher, and 3 sets alternating curls...

    in my opinion thats over training esspecially for back, it gets blasted and needs a while to recover but to each his own i guess?....go for it and see what happens....as for 9 sets of bi's after a second backworkout for the week i would say that is to much also because i only do 4 sets of bi's after back and its been working great on my arms...

    what are those 4 sets of bi's? 2 sets of something and 2 sets of something else or just 4 of the same thing?

    Better top throughly trash it once a week and give six days for growth and recovery than patsying around twice a week.

    Nine sets for bi's could be enough.

    Every workout question boils down to weight, number of reps, intensity and form.

    If you do 3 sets ez bar curl, 3 sets dumbell preacher, and 3 sets alternating curls with the proper weight (for you), intensity and form, You will get results until your body gets used to it, then you will have to do something else.
