What has worked best for me is to stick to a lifting plan using basic complex moves 3-4 times a week and work about 3 sets of 1-2 isolation moves each time you're working that general area. If you keep the total volume from getting too high, you can hit the same muscle twice a week and keep it growing. If you get crazy and do a ton of sets, you'll end up making it too hard to fully recover.

Don't forget brachialis!

is that not one of the bicep heads?

May sound dumb but the best arm workout I ever had was the ones from P90X. I suggest trying it and seeing if it works for you.

bb and db curls. Pushdowns and extensions.

Try this:

Grab a barbell (45 lbs) and put 15 lbs on each side.

Do all with no rest: 10 BB Curls, 10 Shoulder Press, 10 Bent Over Rows, 10 Curls.

If its too easy up the weight and go again.

nice i like sound of this, could i do the shoulder press at the same time as the bb curl instead of doing 10 curls do a curl and press 10 times (just asking) also how many sets would you do

thanx this seems real intense i like, is this routine all just purely for arms, so i could like just use this routine for my arm day as its laid out and carry on with my own chest/back days etc

To be honest when you work your way up in weight on this .... you may only have enough in you to do one set. This has happened to me a bunch. See how you go and experiment.

I am not sure of the answer to your question.

The thinking behind it (I assume) is that you do your 10 curls, not too tough so now your biceps are a little tired, then you do the shoulders and rows so now your shoulders are upper back is a little fatigued. You then have to do the last 10 curls with all biceps no cheating and it is tough!

From my understanding, yes. That's basically what I did. This is a lot of different movements, so make sure you're familiar with them and keep in mind the intensity part. each lift, no matter the weight, should be done with high intensity. Forceful controlled contractions, and controlled extensions. You shouldn't be grinding to finish a rep.

If you want guns remember triceps are twice the size of thr biceps. For tris focus on benchpress, weighted dips, close grip benchpress, skull crushers
bi's, rows, curls,

[pero]

triceps are bigger than biceps, but not twice bigger (except if it's REALLY overdeveloped)

i'd suggest the following:
-train arms 2x weekly or 1x per 4-5 days
-train in all rep ranges
-combine exercises where the muscle-mind connection is the greatest (that's why i always recommend cable and isolation work over free weights. although dumbbells aren't a bad choice, if u know how to use them properly)
-alternate bicep and tricep sets
-focus on exercise execution, particularly rep tempo
-strive to progress linearly in working weights and repetitive strength

Go really light for one month, like 20 reps light. Then the 2nd month go heavier like 10 reps heavy. Then for the 3rd month go heavy, like 3-6 reps heavy.

I've been training this way for my entire body and it's worked wonders for me.
