Hello everyone. I’ve been around on the site for a while, but this is my first post.
I know it may sound cliché, but I’m having trouble gaining size in my biceps. I am currently doing DC style training and am eating between 4000 and 4500 calories daily. I weigh 195lbs and am 5’10”. I’ve based my diet after a sticky post by Massive G (on a much smaller caloric scale, of course) and have been gaining size in all other areas, so I don’t think that’s the problem.
The three arm exercises I am alternating between are spider curls, preacher curls and incline curls. My question is this: In one of Skip’s videos, he mentioned that at one point he quit doing bicep specific movements and noticed much better gains. How do I determine if this would work for me? Just give it a shot? Or would you guys suggest different bicep movements?
It’s frustrating for me to watch the rest of me grow, but my bi’s stand still...my forearms are starting put my upper arms to shame. In the past, I have had shoulder surgeries (seven ops total: three full bankart repairs and four ‘scopes’ between the two of them…hockey player) and am beginning to wonder if this may be causing my plateau.
Any help/advice you gents could give would be most welcome!
Thanks!
