Nothing reasonable I could add to this - Already great advice. Arms are not different than any other muscle when wanting growth. Growth requires food, period. Small muscles like bi's get a lot of work from any pulling exercise and tri's get a lot of work from any pushing exercise.

Direct work is good for shaping.

How? Why?

The last three words of his post are very important...

id agree with the eating i have made more gains in the last 5 weeks by actually eating lots than i have ever made before by not eating properly and again what these guys have all said my arms have grown more by not doing curls and the like and keeping my program to the basic compound lifts by the time ive finished a workout im feeling it all over!!!

what's your rep range on the compound lifts? Dude, I NEVER feel it in my arms but that's because I do a 5x5, I think I'm going to switch to a 4x12 or 5x12 on all the big compound lifts. any thoughts?

also man, can you post up which days you workout and what exercises / muscle groups you work out on those days?

You can't feel bench press or shoulder press or rows in your arms??

Good question

dips are a great exercise for triceps, heavy bar curls for biceps 8-10 reps. Keep in mind that your triceps are the bigger muscles in your arms, most guys focus on biceps more because it is the more "popular" muscle. I see a lot of guys in my school with unproportionate arms, more biceps than triceps. They have big biceps but small arms. Give equal attention and effort for both.

You probably destined to have a certain limit to your "peak" or a certain lack to it regardless. But unless you are a pro and have judges looking at every little detail it shouldn't matter that much. If your biceps are big enough nobody will care

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
