How Many Sets And Reps For Biceps And Triceps
Filed Under Arms | Leave a Comment
Trent posed this question to me “How many sets and reps should I do each for Biceps and Triceps?”
The answer is 6 sets…. or less. Anymore and you will be overtraining your biceps or triceps.
Reps is a bit different, this varies upon what you want to achieve and there are various theories on this, and they all work.
So which is right for your, and why only 6 sets for biceps or triceps?

Barbell Bicep Curls - the cornerstone of all big bicep training and probably one of the most popular weight training exercises of all time.
It is also one of the most effective Bicep exercises around.
Barbell Bicep Curls areĀ the strenght exercise for your biceps, they are as benchpress is to chest and squats are to legs. This is one exercise you need to do if you want to want to achieve maximum strength gains in your biceps.

Big Biceps Peak The Secret
Filed Under Biceps | Leave a Comment
You want a big bicep peak like Arnold’s but all the training you do does not help the bicep peak.
You have big biceps, big triceps but when you flex nothing seems to move much.
I used to have this problem too, 18″ arms and no bicep peak, then I discovered the main secret and I would get comments all the time about how big my arms look either up or down. Just walking around casually people would notice and mention my arms.
You too can get these big bicep peaks on your arms and it does not take much, just a little knowledge and a little sweat and you too will be the proud owner of mountainous arms.
There are two things you need to attain big bicep peaks…

Gain 4.5 Inches On Your Arms Now
Filed Under Arms | Leave a Comment
When I first started training as a bodybuilder I had 11.5″ arms! Not too long after I had grown them to 16″. That is a 4.5″ gain.
How would you like to put 4.5″ on your arms in a relatively short time?
The truth is this is not easy unless you really want it, there is no magic pill, no single exercise you can do at home in front of the TV, there is only one simple way that has been tested time and time again - always with the same results…
Big arm growth.

Triceps The Forgotten Arm Growth Factor
Filed Under Triceps | Leave a Comment
Another issue that beginner trainers forget to pay correct attention too is the triceps muscle.
Your Triceps are the key to big arms, in fact your triceps are about 2/3 of your arm mass. Sure the biceps peak is impressive but try that without the under arm sweep of the triceps.
When I first started added serious tricep training to my weights program I put on 2″ on my arms, it’d probably be better if you did not make the same mistakes as I at the start.
Here’s what I did…

Want Big Arms - Then Don’t Train Too Much
Filed Under Arms | Leave a Comment
Your new to the gym and keen, you saw the latest action movie and want arms like the movie hero. You start training with weights everyday, you train your arms for an hour every day - you want to get them as big as possible. The only big thing that you are making here is the big mistake of training too much.
To grow your arm muscles as fast as possible you need to train them and then let them rest and heal. They only grow when you let them rest and recuperate. If you train them too much then they will never get the chance to grow as training damages and tears the muscle cells - recovery is when they rebuild bigger than before.
This is a problem many young guys have, myself included when I was younger. I would train biceps twice or three times a week, with very heavy weights and 15 to 20 sets each time. No wonder my arms grew to a certain point and then stopped - I was training too much…

About the Author/My Credentials
When I started bodybuilding back in 1996 I had an 11.5″ arm, most of it Bicep. I thought the biggest I could ever grow was 14″ arms - boy was I ever wrong. When I learned about Triceps my arms gained again to 16″. I was still at school at this time and everyone thought I was the biggest man alive, I had the biggest shirts available and they were still tight on my arms - I thought I was BIG.
When school finished and I got out into the real (weight lifting) world I learned some more - 18″ arms - I still remember the day. I was prouder than a newborn baby’s father.
Over the years since I have learned additional tricks, secrets and just pure knowledge that allowed me to grow and grow - over 20″ of cold hard muscular arms.
Now that I have done it I am going to tell you how to get started on your way - quickly and easily - to gain MASSIVE ARMS.
