I have a hard time believing you.  ;)

My max might be around 135 with a straight bar and arm is 16.7".

Tricep size has more to do with arm size than bicep.

I don't go higher than 35lb's on the dumbells and got 17 inchers.

heavy curls didn't do anything for me.

I started doing faster reps with lighter weight. massive pump. short workouts. Biceps 3x per week

That's when I started growing.

I barely rest between sets. real fast reps. at least 12 reps per set.

If you don't have good cardio you'll not enjoy these types of workouts.

Biceps are done in about 10 minutes.

You gotta do what works for YOU.

Took me a few years to find out what works for me.

Mon:Chest, shoulders, Arms
Tue:Legs,Back
Wed:Chest, shoulders, Arms
Thurs:Legs, Back
Fri:Chest, shoulders, Arms
Sat:Legs, Back
Sun:OFF

I think I've gone up to 205 for a few reps and have gone up to 90-95 dumbells for alternate curls. I was doing concentration curls with the 80's at one point. My arms were about 20 cold

Tricep size has more to do with arm size than bicep.

so you little dipshit with 16 inch arms are gonna go out of your way to criticize my arms? your weak and tiny.

its funny how the biggest mouth is always from the tiny ones.  i have 3 inches on your arm, you fuckwit

back to the topic,

i dont go heavier than the 115lbs preloaded small bars that are on the rack. this weight seems plenty for me. i prefer dumbell as it puts lets pressure on the wrist. i dont go much more than 40lbs on those. im actually liking the lifefitness preacher curl axhine right now, works pretty well. i always hated training arms. i prefer to train triceps over biceps, any day.

No I have 2.7 inches on your arms since your arms were 14 inches in the pics you have posted.
