Mes y know i appreciate your physique and work you put into it..i know you are a volume type of trainer but this looks "too much" for arms...

I have to try such volume for arms though...looks challenging.

1 set to failure and beyond. The set should be 5 minutes of agonising toturous HELL

Then get the hell outta there.

I'm never in the gym more than 20 minutes.

205 is still a good skullcrusher weight.

I get up to 165 and that's it!

Works for my arms
keep in mind I train my arms for the most part with moderate weight
