Before we can make suggestions we need more info such as weight, reps, number of sets. Then we can make more appropriate suggestions.

Just at a quick look (need sets and reps...more info) but you are over training your arms.

Most important for size would be. Squat, deadlift, bench press, Rows and Presses. Your arms would only have to be trained once a week for about 6-8 sets.

+1 to overtraining arms. So many people make that mistake. When I started training arms ONCE a week doing only 3 set of BB Curls is when I saw the best results.

Yup, that's all I'm doing per week is 3 sets of bis. And 3 sets of tris.

Cut back on the arms to no more than 3 sets for bi's/tri's once per week. Keep them heavy but you are already getting enough from other upper-body workouts to get your arms to grow.
