what gets u best results?

Use of the adjective "brutal" always helps.

What is the question >>>  ...yeah I drink blood before a brutal workout ..

alternate everyother arm workout and get the best of both worlds,i like that system,one heavy arm day then 4 days later or so pump the hell out of them for higher reps

yeah Ive experimented with both--but Ill do one for a month or two and then switch to lower reps heavier weight for a month or two
that seems to work pretty well

but I do like your idea Graciebjj and think Ill give it a shot--thanks

--sometimes I do heavy sets for the first three and then do a drop set of death or just higher reps with a lower weight for the last.

I try to use the heavy weights for the first two three exercises and then end with a good pump exercise like cable curls.....works for me...

cool this is what Ive been doing right now-----blasting shit with heavy first three sets then one set lighter for a pump-------on chest and tris I try to end with a pump exercise like u mentioned Euro-Monster

On Tris I always start with a cable exercise first--I got this tip from Jay Cutler--it helps loosen up my elbows so I dont get tennis elbow----it works great--try it if you have elbow problems--then my next three exercises I blast them with heavy free weights

I once tried 10 sets of 15 reps of unilateral cable curls expecting that my biceps would be extremely sore the next day but nothing happened...

 In my expierence...biceps/triceps grew best with a mixture of both styles of training with different intensities and rep-range.

 For biceps I go w/ 3 usual exercises. The first is standing EZ bar curls...1 warmup for 12-15  light. Then 1 workset of 10 reps(make sure that there is no way rep 11 could happen without a spotter...make it 10 HARD reps...work for them) 2nd set is for 8 reps( usually 6 maybe 7 on your own...spotter moves in to give you the 'magic fingertips' for the last one...slow negative) and the final set is for 6 reps with 4 maybe...maybe 5 on your own have your spotter again w/ 'magic fingertips' give you a touch for the last one...maybe two. work your negative.

 Now it's Incline DB curls...1 warmup set w/ light weight for 8-10. One arm at a time...1st set is for 12 hard reps...second set is for 10 and last set is for a hard 8 reps. Follow same sequence as above with a spotter if you have one...like I do...and King does. Well...a staff of spotters I mean.

 Last exercise is usually standing one arm bottom cable curls(stirrup handle)...2 sets. 1st set 20 reps, 2nd set 12-15reps...this is when I might rest 30 seconds and lower the weight by 20lbs or so and crank out 10 more...lower it again by 10lbs and crank out 10 more.

 That should swell the biceps up and terrorize enough fibers for growth. Have at it!

8-12 work best for me.
