i think thats it. thanks p-funk. so if i just add 3-4 sets of bicep work in there i should be good? I reallllllllllllllly want to me make my biceps bigger. I'm relatively strong but every kid in my school only does like biceps to make themselves look strong lol and i don't do that much. I really want to make them bigger. Thanks guys.
p-funk? or anyone?

how often do you do that routine?? It looks like some good back work in there. So yeah, you can try just finishing with like 3-5 sets of biceps as they will be already warmed up. That is what I do when I train my back usually. Make sure you are eating enough cals too, if you want to grow.

if you are fried after that then you are done. I mean,. 3 sets means nothing. what is the intensity?? what is the rep range??

Personally I could give a shit what P-Funk thinks about bicep training nor do I give a shit what you think about bicep training or in your cases "NON BICEP" training.

Just stupid.

As for Mudge's friend with 19 arms relaxed I will ask this question is he on steroids?

Steroid users I know sometimes don't even train certain muscles for months at a time & those muscles still grow with the help of the anabolics.

For a natural training person training the biceps is very important.

But these steroid users I speak of all train their biceps twice a week while on a cycle.
You simply don't listen. I didn't say do no direct bicep work. I said that your biceps can and will grow without it, but doing a few sets of direct bicep work is fine. I think 2-4 sets is the best range for myself. You do 9 sets, because you apparently think the biceps require just as much work as much larger muscle groups. I, on the other hand, staunchly disagree.

no maybe you don't know understand or listen

& I'm growing weery of this discuscion

I have a friend who was on cycle for three months and did no bicep work,

and he lost an inch on his arms, I was doing my Bicep routine featuring 18

sets of hammers followed by curl twists &my arms grew to 18 inches and I am all natural, even though I had enough nolvadex and sustanon to do a cycle

but my thyroid hurt so I did not

but my hypothyroidism was caused by ephedra, so maybe you aren't the listen I went from benching 400 to 205 in 3 months because my thryoid was

you try going through what I did, but I'm at a 36 inch waist now from 42 after my thyroid problem and pics are coming

But keep doing back work and seeing no results while my friend who was on cycle and did no bicep routine had shrinkage but not like Seinfeld because I grew natural when his bacp workout did nothing

& here's a picture of me, Johnnny, and don't call me a liar it's true

Nice impression of Johnnny. I actually chuckled a little bit reading that.

What's your point? You can still take pictures. If you are really worried about what people think, then just label it a before picture. Follow up with an after picture when you are "ready" for pictures.

What this means is that when we drop a ball and it falls to the ground, it wasn't the ball that moved (down to the ground), but the ground that moved (up to the ball)

Actually this is where you're wrong.

I do have upper pecs, it's just that obviously my genetics won't allow a complete cleavage to develop as much as I want.

It's nothing special but I currently am repping out 115's-120's for 10-14 reps which is descent for incline dumbbell press. But I was doing 130's before which is more than descent.

If you are going to make fun of my sufferings at least get the information right.

It was hyperthyroidism for 3yrs until last year when I was given Iodine to shut my thyroid down & it took 6 months before I could take synthroid so for 6 months I had no thyroid hormone.

& it wasn't a 405lb bench that I lost it was a 325lb bench that I lost.

I've never said I do 18 sets of hammer curls. I do 9 sets total for biceps 3 exercises.

& I'm not a 36 inch waist I'm a 34 & never was a 42 (only in my young teen yrs) I went up to a 36 inch waist.

But to make fun of someone else's sufferings is pretty low I think

You'll just have to wait.

But I'm putting on a nice amount of muscle & lowering BF% w/o losing too much body weight.

So it will be soon

Maybe by the time I'm back doing 130's on incline db presses is when I will post pics. Repping out 115's-120's it could be soon.

Today is chest & bicep day.

So I will do my chest first & then to hit the biceps real hard I will do a few sets of Yate's style barbell rows, maybe some T-Bar rows & lat pulldowns.

Words from an ignorant & arrogant man.

It's called sarcasm jagoff.

3 sets of standing barbell curls with 125lbs
3 sets of incline bench hammer curls using 50's, 40's, & 30's
3 sets of db preacher curls using 50's, 40's, & 30's

Maybe it is just me, but I am not comfortable with a dude refering to his pecs as "cleavage."

Chicks have cleavage, not dudes.

I am also laughing my ass off at Johnny calling P-funk ignorant.

That's like me calling P-funk "fat."
