Whats your arm size around flexed? I havent checked mine since I was 20 and it was 16" around. I just checked and its 18" right on, I wonder how big around If I measured right after an arm workout lol.

17" - right now.

They have not changed much in years - I think I've gained 1/2" in about 1 or 2 years.

My weight goes up , my strength goes up , but my measurements ( except for my gut :) ) stay the same.

Does that mean I'm natural , Wade ? :D

reverse grip curls will hit the brachialis (spelling?) the muscle underneath your bicep and help fill in the gap to your elbow.

hammer curls help too

I find DB preacher curls helps a lot with hitting this area. Forearm curls with the EZ bar as well. Some of it is genetics though... some guys just don't have the shape for it.

if you dont mind me asking, whats your upper body routine. I assume you just hit your biceps with back? upper would be some sort of bench variation ( floor press, declines, inclines, presses from all starting points). then I do tri's....6 sets of 8-10 reps. back for 3 sets of 15 reps. shoulders 3 sets of 10-15 reps. twice a month I do hammer curls 2-3 sets of 15 reps.....das ist alles!

17 3/4 cold and 18 1/2 pumped measured before and after training at current weight of 200. 5 6 1/2 tall. My lifetime goal is to hit 20" pumped to the max. Arms were 14 1/2" when I was 130 lbs when I was 14 I remember that in grade 9. First show they were 14 1/2 on stage in the 140's. This year at nats I beleive the were just under 18" with a pump but I was alot lighter.

Wow, how much do you curl do get that big. I used to curl 60 before I hurt my wrist now I just do light weight (40s) and stuck at 18".

Triceps today I did 120 behind the neck press. I feel like I must be cheating or just have some kind of useless natural gift on that single exercise though!

Straight barbell curls i was doing on Tuesday night 1x 45 plate and a 25 on each side=185 lbs for 10 x 3 sets, and then a drop set , kept taking 20 lbs off until i stopped at a 25 lber on each side...i use 85s or 90 s for dumbells, triceps i love dips, and one arm over head extensions and close grip bench and reverse grip benches....different weight used all the time......
