How To Get Bigger Arms

So you’re wondering how to get bigger arms?

That’s a good question and probably the holy grail when it comes to guys wanting to put on slabs of muscle mass which always includes a pair of sleeve splitting arms.

Well to be honest, there are many ways you can train to get bigger arms.

I’m going to tell you though that everything works to some degree, but if you really want bigger arms much faster, then I suggest you focus on just your arms for a certain period of time. This is called a specialization routine where you tone down the volume on all other muscle groups and increase the volume on 2 muscle groups to play catch up to everything else.

You can do this with your arms  for around 6-8 weeks.

Now there are some parts of arm training that can make your arms look much bigger minus the triceps and biceps. These muscles are the brachialis and brachioradialis.

Here is a picture illustrating them.

Essentially, if your brachialisis is built up, it’s going to push out your biceps much more, therefore making your arm bigger in circumference.

A great way to train both of these 2 muscles is through the use of any type of curling movement with your palms facing down or inward. This is called a pronated grip and neutral grip. This will activate those 2 muscles the most and take the much more powerful biceps out of the movement.

Listed below is a routine you can follow on how to get bigger arms for the next 6-8 weeks. However, remember that the growing does not happen in the gym. It happen at your kitchen table. That could be your problem too is that you’re not taking in enough calories to ensure muscle growth. Make sure you’re eating plenty of calories from clean sources to support what you’re doing in the gym.

Anyways, here is the program:

Monday: Perform all exercises for 3 sets of 5 super setting movements.

A1: Barbell Curls

A2: Dips

B1: Wide Grip Ez Curl Bar Curls

B2: Dumbbell Floor Presses

C1: Narrow Grip Ez Curl Bar Curls

C2: Ez Curl Bar Pullover Into A Skull Crusher Lying Down

Wednesday: Perform all exercises for 3 sets of 8 super setting movements.

A1: Hammer Curls

A2: Close Grip Decline Bench Press

B1: Reverse Grip Ez Curl Bar Curls

B2: Overhead Rope Extensions

C1: Zottoman Curls

Friday: Perform all exercises for 3 sets of 15 super setting movements.

A1:  Reverse Grip Ez Curl Bar Preacher Curls

A2: Skull Crushers With A Dumbbell

B1: Hammer Grip Preacher Bench Curls

B2: Arms Bent Lying Pullovers

C1: Standing Palms Up Dumbbell Curls (No Twist)

C2: Barbell Floor Presses

All in all, you can do this routine for 6-8 weeks. For all other body parts, just do them on a separate day, utilizing big multi joint compound movements for 4 sets of 6 to preserve your muscle mass.

As you progress, you will notice you’re getting stronger on these lifts. Feel free to add a set, rep or add weight.
