Biceps work out help

[eax5]

i have a problem when I work out my biceps, I just cant get then sore no metter what I do. Yesterday i worked them out until i count lift anything after, and today in the mornign nothing at all, its like i didnt even do anythnig last night in the gym.

Is that normal?

I'm no expert, but aren't you expecting results a little too soon?

I don't think muscles grow overnight. Back in the days, when I lifted my first weights, I only saw the first 'bumps in my arms' about two months later.

Muscles grow slowly, unfortunately...

It may be early days yet. Esp. when a begginer and when you really rip down a muscle it can take 2, 3 even 4 days before you feel sore, but oh boy do you feel it then.

By the way, if your back's sore instead then I think I know whats happening.

Out of interest, what's your full weekly routine, please tell me you are not just doing curls.

Soreness mean nothing.

BS!! Soreness is EVERYTHING when it comes to growth.....Arnold is man the legend will tel you himself the key to biceps is supersets, supersets, and more supersets. Start with a heavy weight (i don't know your limits, as long as you don't put your back into it) doing preacher curls and do 7 reps. DON'T REST drop some weight off that usually 10 or 20 pounds and do 7 more, DON't REST drop 10 or 20 and do 7, get down to a very light weight and do 10 reps. Now you can rest. Remember, when doing bi's you must always SQUEEZE and keep your wrists STRAIGHT. 2 or 3 of those routines mixed in with sime isolation curls should leave you hurtin in the morning

The key to developing your guns is to work your triceps. It may seem strange, but most the mass in your arm is composed of the triceps muscle, not the biceps. Here's a good routine for you to follow,



Biceps curl with barbell, immediately followed (with no rest in between) to

chin ups


For your triceps,

Triceps extension with a dumbell or barbell followed by, (no rest between sets) to

dips

Perform each set until your muscle cannot perform the movement any longer then rest the following day. Then the day after that, perform the same routine.

You'll notice changes in your physique in 6 weeks.
