So i was thinking to try and get my Back and Chest back down so it can match my arms.
As for training what would be a good routine for me? Because at the moment all im doing is
Biceps/ calfs/ traps
Triceps, calves, some legs
I dont like training legs seriously anymore so anyone got any suggestions? thxs
But the way, im on a diet too
-
are u natty?
if so, you cant do shit about this.
and if your on a diet, you espcially cant do shit about this natty or not natty.

Try a 4 way split 1. legs, 2, back traps and abs, 3, chest and delts, 4 just arms and abs. This way you can focus only on arms when fresh. good luck

i do boxing, lifting heavy legs isnt the best way to do it IMO
Howard, what if i just didnt train Back and Chest at all....would that make them smaller?
-
You might just think they do. Bodybuilders have always had overpowering arms, so your perception might distort.

all your power comes from your legs and hips.
so nope don't do legs. you barely do anything else anyway.
i mean dude why do traps and no back work. your back don't overpower
your arms it's impossible. get the fuck outa in front of the mirror and
don't come back until you weigh over 170 and start doing some real lifting.

have an arms day.

Train legs seriously. It all starts with legs, the rest of the week is downhill...
-
X2 thats the trick right there. Once you realize that legs are the most iimportant day, followed by back day.....you are just pissing in the wind.

Maybe you should start doing legs then :D
-
Hit arms off at the end of Back and Chest days and then have separate days for them as well .. here is a 5 day split example
Quads/Abs > Chest Tris > Back Bis > Rest > Shoulders/Tris > Hams/Traps/Bis > Rest > Repeat

curls get girls

Take steriods, they seen to cause much more growth in the arms and delts as compared to torso growth. That's why most pros arms and delts simply overpower their chests. And their backs, somewhat as well. Just take a look at heath, snasser, dillet, martinez, etc.

full range of motion, dont use your delts.
dumbell preacher curls, single arm overhead dumbell extensions. warm up the elbows first. FULL RANGE OF MOTION
stay away from failure, keep the weights light enough to get at leats 6 reps, heavy enough so you cant do 12.
total sets from 5-10 for each bis and tris.
control the weight the entire time, squeeze the muscle at peak contraction.
slowly increase the weight as it gets easier. 5-10lbs every month or two. eventually that will slow down. at this point you may consider switching up to higher reps for a bit.

Impossible, you cannot completely isolate a bodypart without recruiting other motor units. Since the biceps tendon connects in the shoulder its has to recruit. Ever hear of someone having a biceps tear? It's usually a proximal tear which is at the shoulder....IT ALL TIES IN.

try it out. it doesnt mean lift easy, just stay a couple reps shy of failure on most every set. helps ensure recovery
coach- you miss the point entirely.

Bump for dis thread. So were u able to increase the size of yo arms while decreasing the size of yo chest and back?
-
this is one for long time trainers,,, any of you actualy made much gains on arms after 1st few yrs? ive found most will get there initial gain then be stuck with what theyve got,, unless you go to extremes such as long drawn out high dose courses, slin and growth etc...
torso and legs will continue to grow for some reason tho...

himmler curls

more than likely, your arms don't suck compared to your chest and back.
their "shape" just probably suck = you can't do nothing about it, even when they will get bigger
welcome to the club

make lucky charms the staple of your diet....eat nothing else...
bench
-
Monday - arms
Tuesday - legs
wednesday - chest abs
Thursday - back and touch up bis
Friday - shoulders - touch up tris
arm thickness excerses
Olympic bar curls, hammer curls, reverse curls
skull crushers... Seated tri extensions .. Close grip benches

Hey mesomorph78, you're chemical-free, oui? If so, how can your body handle training 5 days in a row? Sh¡t man! I can only handle 2 days in a row max :-/

just shoot up with a little synthol, balance everything out

Quad sets most always seems to work for a lot of guy's. Can use for any body part, but adapt well for increased arm size.
Example..use any movement you wish:
1) Triceps- overhead DB extension
2) Bicep- EZ close grip curl
3) Tricep- press down- kneeling
4) Bicep- DB alternate curl
No rest between sets. Rest from 90 to 120 seconds and than do another cycle. Two to three cycles at the most. 7-9 reps each. Twice a week. Insert after any other group of body parts worked. You are never going to isolate the bicep/triceps, each works with one another. And one will not function completely without the involvement of the other.
Can also run the rack, starting with a pair if 10's. AS you workup to higher pairs of DB's the reps will drop to 2's or 3's. When that happens begin going down the rack, using lighter weight. All the way down to the original 10's. If you feel the need for two cycles than do them. But one cycle (if done correctly) should be enough for most. Insert them at the end of any workout day, twice a week. Running the Rack will also work extemely well when doing DB presses (Gironda/LarryScott). And to a lesser degree, lateral raises.
I can think of 3 or 4 other advanced arm programs, off the top of my head. Lot's out there. Just a suggestion, but most do not ever need a special day for arms only, unless you are doing the One Day Arm Program, which has worked for many BB'ers. Though a few people fail at it because they don't understand the concept and do it wrong in the first place. Good Luck.

go the greg valvalino route.

Hey jpm101, do you really think that its possible to make good progress training a muscle group twice a week if you are a natural trainer? I know that in my case I would start to regress and lose size and strength training a muscle group twice a week. In fact, I have performed numerous experiments upon myself, due to my obsessive nature, and I have found out that I dont make progess unless I train each muscle group once every 6 to 8 days.

i like how people describe it as "my back and chest over power my arms"
when the correct way of describing it is probably closer to "my back and chest are weak, and my arms are even WEAKER"

thinkin its closer to this because ur chest and back are a stronger muscle group anyway,,, its the majormuscle groups of the upper bod complex,,, they are bigger than ur arms,,, its a good thing in the long run,, just giv a lil more attention to arms, they'll catchup... some guys have great arms and pigeon chest and narrow backs so u have the better of the 2... to untrained they think a big arm = big guy but to ppl in the know/athletes or trained individuals,,, guys w big chst backs and shldrs r the real big boys...

listen cokehead, you're calling out a guy (coach) who's made a living off his "knowledge" for 20+ years, while you're a ug lab experiment fat shit gone wrong.
when you start getting paychecks from your training / diet advice, then you can call others out. until then, keep popping your zits and fucking your gorilla girlfriend and shut the fuck up.

u dont want to make them smaller....thats u going backwards and deleting the hard work u put in....makes no sense
just maintain ur back and chest with some light weight high reps low sets
and up the weight on ur arm exercises ..... simple as that
if ur a tallish ectomorph then u have gentics going against u but stick in there

Hey mesomorph78, you're chemical-free, oui? If so, how can your body handle training 5 days in a row? Sh¡t man! I can only handle 2 days in a row max :-/

Yes I work out 5 days a week hard this is my split and the logic behind it
Monday arms
Tuesday legs (rest upper body)
Wednesday chest (rest lower body
Thursday back bi ( rest tris and front delts)
friday delts and tris ( rest bis )
weekend rest

Just follow the principles of the John Romano school of chest training and your chest will be shrunken in no time. ;)

So I see that gh15 knows a bit about training too :-) In fact, I normally train on a 2on/1off split, and Im a chemical free trainer. Yeah, I just dont see how in da hell one could possibly train 5 days in a row and still make progress :-0

this is getting old ... You have been obsessed with this for 5 years
I've been on your mind for that long
newsflash no matter how many posts you make regarding this I'm still natural and that won't change
5 days a week works fine for me NATURAL.
My genetics allow me to do that
sorry if this bothers you .. You need to move on

Thats cool man, So why not give us a quick rundown on what you did exactly to achieve this particular goal?
-Did biceps and triceps on seperate days
-Biceps always done first in the workout because i have the most energy
-Ate alot of food
-Cut down to lose the fat and now arms got decent size in relative to body
-Neglected back, didnt train very heavy
-Never trained chest, apart from the odd upperchest day
-Trained legs
Im probably the wrong person to give advice because im not a bodybuilder, I train for bitches/strength/boxing only. :)

Thanks for the reply ma man! Its always interesting to learn about others experiences and what they did to achieve their goals :-)
