Thread: how many direct biceps work do you do? and how often?

It varies.

Yesterday I did arms by themselves, and did sets of bi's. I'll probably throw in 4-6 sets in after my back session later this week.

I think for almost everyone it boils down to gentics and how they grow. Benj is nothing but arms so all he has to do is rub one out and they grow, Me on the other hand have to train them twice, once by their selves and once after back.

Work the biceps twice a week
Once directly

I do a arm workout all by itself once a week. Bi's and tri's usually at the end of the week and I destroy them 2 hr workout..legs the next day to give them a break.but between chest , back , and shoulders it's like 2 bicep and 3 tricep workouts a week. Its a bit much, but I can get them pumped up to 22 inches.

3 sets right after back on my back day dumbells.barbell. every 4days

If by "direct" you mean isolation, then never.

almost same here i often do them once with something else like back but total of 9 sets.
and once just alone total 12 sets.

I'll do 3 sets of either barbell curls, incline db curls, single arm cable curls, even burnouts at the end of a Back w/o. I switch it up often.
Every couple weeks when I'm looking for a good pump I'll dedicate one day to arms.

3 sets once a week
