    Warm up with some concentration chin ups

    Straight curls super sets with twisted hammers (4 sets & surf the rack on the last set)

    T-Bar curls with the back row machine (4 sets last is a drop set)

    Inverted bar curls (4 sets)

    Isolated curls (6 sets)

    Incorporate them twice a week & when u carry the dumbbells for any excercise twist ur bicep (it matters trust me)

    Go to failure as far as the reps but standard (12-15)

    Notice if ur wrists give up before your biceps. If so, tighten ur grip in all ur excercises. I mean literally all excercises even the bench press. Stronge grip will improve your wrist resilience

    Thanks man

    Kinda confused, are these to be done in one session, twice a week?

    Yup but flip the order & keep the isolations till the end

    If you haven’t been lifting for a year big chance that your core is helping u with the barbell curls. You feel the pump after the set but it doesn’t do much for hypotrophy so just wing those kind of curls & even standard dumbbells curls. P muvh anything that gives u the flexilbility to swing

    You need max tissue Contractotion so focus on really squeezing the hell out of those biceps.

    4-6 months you’ll be good to go

    Been doing fierce 5 novice few weeks which is strength training, low reps and high weight.

    I'm pushing myself by adding 10lbs to upper 20lbs per lower a week. So far I am knocking it out.

    Once I hit that wall it will drop down 5lbs upper me 10lbs lower added per week.

    I've gotten way stronger but haven't gotten bigger, granted it's only been 3 weeks I think

    You're adding too much, should've added no more than 5lbs. It'll work for a month and maybe more but then you'll plateau and even a 2lbs addition will be too much for your muscles to adapt to

    Adding 2 to 5 lbs is the way to go man

    I need to buy like 50 more pounds of weight for the barbell because this s*** is getting light and pointless now. Anyone know a good place?
