Neglected Arm
« on: February 18, 2008, 07:21:31 AM »
Just like some folk who do not train their legs, I have neglected my arms, they are out of balance with my body.

Any suggestions on how to bring them up? train them everyday or what?

twice a week tops.

or you might want to consider giving them their own day

pick at least one major excise for biceps (like curls) and one for triceps (like dips/weighted dips or skull crushers) and put most of the effort into those. then 1-2 additional exercises for biceps and triceps.

im sure there will be more suggestions in this thread following  :)

I agree with Bluto, give them their own day for a while. BB curls, DB curls and Hammer curls for biceps and CG bench, skull crushers and dips for tris. 3-4 sets for 8-12 reps. You can try to superset them and get a great pump. Don't underestimate how  much heavy chest, back and shoulder work contributes to arm size as well.
