Basics for big arms

Tman2002 · May 10, 2005

What do you guys think are the basics for big arms?

I say barbell curls to start with. For tri's maybe french press supersets with close grip.

Barbells are like squats for the arms.....and I'd say either close grips or skull crushers.

A curl is a curl is a curl. At least for me anyhoo.

I think the best way to big arms are the basics: Squats, Deads, Dips, Pullups. Does anyone know someone with big arms who isn't big all over?

To me it seems that MOST people in the gym have big arms and nothing else.

As long as I look good in a tanktop!

BBJ, do they actually have big arms (19 plus inches) or do they just appear big because the rest of there body is underdeveloped?
