God damn my crappy biceps 19 January 2012 20:21 (permalink)
i dont often post in this forum as i have been training a while and after 2 years off i found and decided to follow this routine
 
Monday 
Deadlifts- 10x1 
Chins- 4x6 
Bent Over Barbell Rows- 4x6 

Wednesday 
Bench- 4x6 
DB Shoulder Press- 4x6 
Static Holds 
Plate Pinches 
Plate Curls- 4x6 

Friday 
Squats- 4x6 
SLDL- 4x6 
Calf Raises- 4x6 
Weighted Crunches- 4x10 
Hanging Leg Raises- 4x6
 
Firstly thank you to who ever posted it in the sticky, it is excellent
however i have always had rubbish biceps, genetically i have long forearms and short biceps 
so i struggle with curls etc
 
now its holding up my progress on the wide grip chins, maybe this will get better with time as i only started properly back to it new year but i dont want my back to suffer cause i have $hit arms 
 
should i add something in to strengthen my biceps or will that be over training and counter productive
opinions would be very welcome 
 
thanks alot

    Personally I think you would be fine to add in some bicep work, you may struggle with them but keeping at them will just improve it for you.
    Adding an isolation or 2 wont be any problem and wouldnt lead to overtraining either

      Either add another workout or add PULL-UPS to routine on Fridays, I find pull-ups and Cable curls best for Biceps.
      Personally I would add the extra workout with more Shoulder work and just Pull-ups/cable biceps.
