I wanna get bigger arms

Either get your stuff or join a gym.
Do core exercises like (Incline) benchpress, shoulderpress, deadlifts, rows, chins, squats. Forget all the nancy isolation exercises. Do core exercises til you puke (not litterly puke cuz you need all the fuel you eat but you get my point), then, if you have enough left, do some isolation movments.

my suggestion anyway.
 
I think a little differently in this area...I let my arms get heavy work from my compound movements (deads, military, bench, rows) and than for their iso work I superset bis/tris and just try to get as much of a pump as I can; no regard to weight being used, just trying to strech the muscle fascia

Usually just 6 sets for tris and 6 sets for bis of direct work every week

Right on thanks. They definately look big in your pic and your back is ripped. So do you do all of those in one sitting with a ton of weight? Like JH1 said 2 sets? how much weight do you do?

lol. . .i'm fat right now. . .by june i'll have big ropey veins running across my back :)

like jh says above, i rarely do more than 8 sets for bi's and tri's and i do them as super-sets. . .one set standing barbell curls, one set of skull crushers. . .back and forth. . .4 or 5 sets total. . .these are usually the anchor of my arm workout. . .i go up to 150 for 4 or 5 reps with standing barbell and 140 for 4 or 5 reps with skull crushers. then i move on to a couple of other excercises for each. . .i generally keep the intensity high throughout. however, once in a while i'll do drop sets on the cable machine. . .rope curls for bi's and rope extensions for tri's. . .i'll usually do 2 sets of each, starting at 150 and dropping 20lbs at a time dropping all the way down to 30lbs. . .these usually give me an outrageous pump but they also tend to wreck my arms pretty good so i only do that like once a month.

basic movements. . .heavy weight. . .can't go wrong.
 
One of the reasons I recommend so little isolation sets for bis is because - like I had said - you can't just build up your ceps... you have to get the core excercises in there.. Cores are a must... and you always want to start with core...

The isolations are just on top of that.

So give me the rotation of the cores then. I guess I just need to suck it up and join the gym at the rec center. I just wonder how packed it gets. I'll probably go check it out tomorrow. why don't you give me your workout routine that you do brody...
 
I am doing HST right now... which is 6 days a week about 40 min a day. I break it up in 2 20 min sets... 4 weeks in... remember with bitcherella, I didn't work out once...

If you want an HST setup, I'll be glad to set you up... But most peeps like to do the 3 day split I gave you that way you aren't in the gym everyday. Now... I am pretty sure I put all the core's that you need in there, email me that excel sheet back and I will make sure.

But basics - Squats, Dead Lifts, Incline Press, Decline Press, Shoulder Press, Rows, Pull Downs.. If those are in there you are set. They should be at the top for a given day (upper body, lower body) followed by smaller muscle groups, and more isolation...

Do your cores first, as listed. Send me that sheet back, I'll double check it. Now, if you want HST, I will set you up with it. I get best results with HST... at least natural.
