Getting Bigger But Feeling Stronger

[Hollywood06]

I have been working out for about two weeks and taking whey protein for a week. my arms are getting bigger but i dont feel any stronger. why would this be?

nothing like those amazing results in arm girth following 2 weeks of training.

takes longer then two weeks.

Because you've been working out for TWO WEEKS.

Don't sweat it, this stuff takes time and dedication.

Your arms are not bigger.

You are not feeling stronger because you haven't been doing it long enough.

What's your program?

Sorry meant to say been working out for about a month. and i know my arms are getting bigger because everybody can tell. i have had tons of people say something about them. it just kinda puts me in the dumps when i dont feel any stronger. maybe i will later on like yall are saying.

What kind of routine are you doing? Strength comes from compound moves, not from arm training

You don't feel stronger? What does that mean? Are you lifting heavier weights?

Are you attempting to lift heavier weights?

i do arms on monday, wed, and fri and legs tues, thursday and saturday. on arms i do curls, triceps, and bench and also pushups and abs.and on leg day all i can do is leg curls and legs extension. it kinda sucks because all i have is a weight machine. i just dont have time to go to a gym.
