Want Huge Upper Body - Bodybuilding Discussion on Bodybuilding.net Training Forum

Fox · 03-13-2008, 08:44 AM

Hello Folks
I am new and recently started lifting. I was 300 lbs in December but with cardio and lifting I have lost 50 lbs. I want to have a huge arms and chest. I work full time and typically get to the gym 3-4 days a week. What would be a good routine to get get going on having huge arms and chest. My thoughts are:
Chest:
Flat bench
Incline bench
machine flies
cable cross overs
Bicep:
EZ bar curls
barbell curls
Hammer Curls
Machine Curls
Tricep:
rope pulldown (french)

Can I do all these in one training day or is it defeating the purpose.

Go for it and let us know how you make out.

My goal is 315lb by June and currently bench 225lb. I want that huge bump in my bicep also how long should I do this routine and when do I want to change it up.

Do it everyday. Take Sunday off.

I don't do this often. But go read the stickies before you ask for help.

In this case, you're not out in left field, you're at the wrong diamond. Please read the stickies.

Maybe it's just me , but I though this guy was fuckin around...Since that mess the other day.

^^ I was wondering why you answered him like that talo, you dont usually do that. In the event that he is serious, I would suggest looking through the stickies like Kane suggested, and i would also suggest that if your really want to have massive upperbody, you may want to include lower body workouts also. You dont want to look like a top do you?

Since I am new to the site and maybe my last time I come here I was just looking for some sound advice and not fucking around. Were and what are stickies. I think a few of you assholes should lighten up on the roids.

Easy bud...By "few of you" you mean me. How should I know your serious with a training program like that ?

"Lighten up on the roids" Huh...? ask a dumb question get a dumb answer.

If you want your upper body to grow then do what Kane and Hardgain say - READ STICKIES. They are the first few threads you see when you open up a forum ie: training forum - gives you 7 to choice from and here take this http://www.bodybuilding.net/training...wing-1451.html and read it. There is lot's more information also.

Since you said you wont be coming back why don't you train your back, shoulder , quads , hams, abs.?..Basically the whole body....And eat lot's of food....That's your quick answer to your first question

I think someone should watch his "mouth". Everybody is a bit on edge after the fiasco of the last few days. But ..that was just a bit over the top. As far as the roid comment those kinds of preconceptions show that you don't have a lot of respect for the people you are asking for advice. You expect help of people you are prejudice against? We don't really have a lot of gear users here, btw.

Everyone, let's try not to suspect each and every person who joined over the last few days.

I see it all the time--people beating themselves up in the gym and not seeing results. They don't understand that hitting the weights hard is only a small part of growing or even cutting down. I could train the same all year round and get big or get ripped just by eating different and taking different supplements"
