i have no idea what is the drawing of urs....

Lol. Jackie Chan, i guess you need to show him a pic of you doing it. I don't get it either.

same with you, i see already few days and still dont know what and what he showing.

is he trying to say to stretch your arms outwards parallel to the floor while holding a dumbbell?

Hmmm... isn't that a form of static contraction?

suggest u to eat more meats ... dont need to exceed the limit, just eat more and you will experience it, then do more dumbell exercise like I always do, once u satisfy then stop it ...

I believe that if you do enough chest workout like those chest press, dips and push up, your upper arm will develop in quite a good form. Chest press will involve more on triceps. You do the pull up will develop the biceps and also forearms. I very very seldom do arm workout, but i focus more on chest, back, shoulder and with the amount of exercise that i used my arms, my arms will grow together with the rest of the muscle, especially you keep on stress you arms until you feel like want to drop it away

Yeap. Good post. That's what i keep telling people. Everyone's looking for a magic formula for big arms but there's no such thing.
Compound pushing works tris, compound pulling works bis. It's really that simple.

Go to the gim and workout non-stop.When there's a will,there's always a way..*lol*

Actually, no. Lol. My workouts don't last more than an hour. Heh...

Yupe.... compound work is good. By the way, how do you do the dips and pull-up? increase the intensity method or increase the quatity method? For me, i feel that if i increase the intensity on chest press, my chest will grow faster than the arm. But if i increase the quatity, my chest dont really grow but the arm will grow faster than the chest. Anyway, the behind method need to take quite sometimes to see the result.

idk, for dips, if you lean forward and go lower, the chest in emphasized, but not too low because it can damage the rotator cuffs.
If you stay more upright, and do slightly less range of motion, the tris are emphasized.
I do the weighted variety, had to import this dip belt form the UK but it's worth it. See pic.



But yeah, they're a great compound exercise and far more effective than the flat bench press for building mass. It was quoted as the upper body squat by Mike Mentzer, Arnold and Dorian Yates.

yeah...24 hours a day...7 days a week...

wah that u gonna work your muscle to death..

should every alternate days all focusing 3 different parts of your body....
1 day workout, then next day rest, then next day work out., and so on

also limite to 45min, thats what i do....

All inside here lah. Hope it helps. Remember to warm up before do. Normally 3 sets for each musle(bicep & tricep) then do musle stretching after exercise. It help get bigger faster.
