I'm lucky, my arms are my best muscle. Right now they are measuring 21", I do arms all in one day. Bi's & tri's together supersets. 12 sets @ 10-12 reps.

I had the same problem for a long time. I just worked arms tonight and was thinking "damn my arms have grown"

the trick.....HEAVY, HEAVY, HEAVY!!! 4-6 reps. Also bi's and tri's are small muscle groups. I only do 6 sets for each. Don't go doing 10 sets of bi's or you will over work them.

Hmm funny that you should say that. My arms NEVER grew. I was at one point about 250 with 17 inch fucking arms at 6'2. Then on my next low dosage cycle i switched to low weight and high rep training and BAHM, 19.7 inches Cold. They literally blew up and became one of my better body parts.

See the kay is to experiment, HEAVY is a no brainer and does not BY FAR mean bigger muscles. I never believed it, but once i let go of my ego i got 19.7 inch arms cold, curling bars weighnig 20-60lbs for 15-30 reps. Go figure.

My arms never grow either...

Even at 245lbs my arms hit just 17" they are usually 16-16.5

It kinda sucks.

Im thinking about not training them and concentrate on heavy rows, chins, presses for arm size now.

PS. My usual arm workout is maybe 6 sets total for bis AND Tris.. low reps to.. 4-7

maybe I should do more volume with higher reps also.

You didn't say which part of your arms are not growing. I will assume it's your bi's, as this is usually the only thing people think about.

One of the biggest mistakes that I see, is that people too often neglect their tri's. You can not build huge bi's with tiny tri's.

I seperate my bi and tri workouts because I will take each to failure, not giving me energy for the other. Heavy weights may work for some but I prefer lighter weights most of the time but with many sets for each. Once a month I will perform drop sets of 100's just to shock my bi's and tri's. For example on bi's, I will start with the heaviest weight that I can, say 160 for 10 reps, drop 10 lbs for another 10 reps....so on and so on for a total of 10 sets of 10 reps, if I can move after that, I will drop the weight all the way down and rep until complete failure.

If you've never tried them, reverse grip curls will do wonders for the under side of the bi's. I prefer to do this on a seated machine as it really tweaks my wrists.

I usally get good results by curling slow paying attention to the movement,I'm not concerned with heavy weight the key is intensity and training to complete failure.hope this helps.

I agree with the posts that different routines work for different bros. The above quote is me all the way. Never measured the guns, and, they have always been good, but, after I started the above routine, boomtown......

while JB's suggestion might work for some people it doesnt work for me. my approach is to train like a bodybuilder not a power lifter. no sets under 6 reps..8 would be better. make sure you get the squeeze on every rep. precher bench is a must. very little rest inbetween sets. short and intense sessions on arms. it is all about getting the blood in them.
