Topic: Weight training: How do I get my biceps as big as possible?

Anonymous A started this discussion 15 years ago #8,494

I want to get my biceps (and triceps!) as big as possible, as fast as possible (who doesn't?). What is the best way to do this?

Here is my current routine:

Monday
Bench press
Incline bench press
Military press

Wednesday
Barbell curl (EZ bar)
Tricep extension (EZ bar)
Deadlift
Barbell row

Friday
Squat
Stiff leg deadlift
Calf raises
Laying leg curl

I do 8x3 for every exercise, lifting as much as possible. What changes can I make to get bigger arms? I would do more reps of curls, but I read that more reps trains muscle endurance and not size, I would also have to decrease the weight because my arms are dead after 8x3 anyway.

Any dirty/unorthodox tricks? I'm prepared to do curls every day of the week or anything that will achieve the results I'm looking for.

There is no way I will ever inject anything into my body. I would consider taking steroids orally, but nothing else. I've taken creatine before but didn't see any real improvements.
