I mean: 4 sets total for arms? Thats easy in comparison to what Ive been doing the past 9 years. Maybe some people can grow off of it though. Sure as fuck not me.

What makes you think your arms are so different from everybody else? Muscle tissue is muscle tissue.

Sure its still tissue, but it responds differently. Why else is there two people who can train and eat identically and one gains much more then the other? What makes me think Im so different is that I would not grow on such a routine at this point (or ever), and you say you do.

Well, I don't consider it "too much" volume, but you can grow like wildfire with no more than 1-2 sets. I consider anything above 4-5 sets per bodypart excessive.

you mean 4-5 work sets right???

I still like doing 4-8 sets for arms at times. Right now I'm not able to do events as much (which hit my arms a lot) so I am doing more and more gym work to compensate.

For bodybuilding...I always did 3-4 sets of flat bench (1 to failure), and 2-3 sets of incline (1 to failure), and usually one more exercise for 1-2 sets (1 to failure). Worked pretty good for me.

PLEASE...just remember that YOUR ideas are not always the CORRECT ones and they are NOT FACTS!!!! I'll go ahead and say that mine are not facts either...ther are very few givens or facts in training.

this is why we have a forum, to convey ideas and theory, there are very few facts in building muscle. Nice post.

Debaser I will give you a theory I have done some recerch on, is muscle can grow only as fast as the surrounding fascia around it grow, so if the fascia is fibrous by microtrauma over time it might not be able to expand at maximal rate by which slowing down muscle growth, just a thought
