Might have overdone it a bit as my left elbow is pretty stiff right now.
 
I see you're leaving the actual weight numbers off of the curls to make the rest of us feel better about ourselves...

I keep forgetting to add in those dang guillotine curls.

Looking forward to when the Flexible kicks in!

ok, now what the heck are guillotine curls??

Laying down on your back using the high pulley to do curls bringing the curl bar down to your throat. Like a barbell tricep press with the resistance reversed

Lol 50s are my best for 10 right now. I've been doing 4 second negatives so 5 sets of 15 with 25s fries my bis pretty thoroughly like that. Haha brings my ego down a lot though.

Slow negs make it a whole different ball game. Here's another one to try. I call them bicep blasters....(standing db curls) 25s, 30s, 35s, 30s, 25s no rest between 10 reps of each =1 set.

Nooooo I just got over the flu. I grew up liking the Niners with Montana. "The Catch" was the first full game I paid attention to. Listened to it with my dad driving across the State when I was 9 and lost my mind for the Niners lol

I've always liked the Dolphins too. Love Marino, and growing up the Jags weren't here yet.

Just depends really. If I make it to the gym I like doing some bb work but if I'm just training at home it's all db and band work.
 
Joints are feeling pretty damn good right now. Even my elbows which have been bad for months.

Training today was biceps. Had to make it quick so went high volume short rests again.

Standing Db Curls
35x20x3 first 10 of each set I did alternating arms and the last 10 of each was simultaneous.

Incline Db Curls
40x12x3

Hammer Curls ss with Guilotine Curls

Damn just look at that work! I need to figure out a way to do those guillotine curls on the equipment I have available
 
Dayum, Reg. Ya juicin', brah?

I'm going to make a better effort of getting my numbers up there. I thought my biceps were a strong point.

Do you have any bands? I've been getting some pretty decent work in with mine. I bought a Tri-band handle and have a 50, 40, and and 30 that I put on it. Works great!

It's harder to get good shape then to get size. I tell everyone I am as big as I want to get but I want more shape. I want deep deep cuts and round full muscle bellies.
