I used to have the same problem, mostly because I am 6'3'' with long arms. I do arms, usually on friday. 9sets for tri's, and 9sets for bi's. I also have a set of 50 lb dumbells sitting around the house and whenever I get bored or tired of studying or something, I will do some pushups and a set of curls. What worked for me was switching up the exercises every week.

Nothing works as well for me as changing the workout(sets, reps, exercises, or order of exercises). Write down on a slip of paper every possible exercise you can think of for Bis, Tris, and forearms. Put the slips into a hat and pick 3 for each bodypart and do tfour sets of each with reps in the range of 30-5. Do the exercises in the order in which you draw them.

Something more scientific which works well is POF training.

Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It realizes that it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed.
Every morning in Africa, a lion wakes up. It realizes that it must run faster than the slowest gazelle, or it will starve to death.

The moral?

It doesn't matter whether you are a lion or a gazelle, when the sun comes up - you had better be running.

Try doing curls with the olympic bar if you aren't already.

Gotta agree with BigGuns.
Straight bars just seem to bomb the biceps harder and faster for me.
Remember... The triceps are a more influential muscle group for size and strength. You develope huge triceps, your bench will go up as well as military press.

Bi's: Straight Bar 3 sets 4-6 rep range
Standing or Seated DB Curls 3 sets 4-6 rep range
Incline Hammer Curls 3 sets 4-6 rep range

Mix the exercises up add cable curls one week, concentration curls one week...Stick with the two primary mass builders, which are Straight Bar and DB either seated or standing!

Tri's: Declince e-zbar skull crushers 3 sets 4-6 rep range
Flat Bench e-z bar skull crushers 3 sets 4-6 rep range
straight bar push downs 3 sets 4-6 reps. Do this with palms up and palms down

Again mix in some other type of tricep work outs every week, always keeping the muscles guessing, close grip bench is good, reverse grip declines are awesome! I stay 3 sets for each excersize in a 4-6 rep range, this works for me arms measure 17.5 cold and 18 all pumped up! Good Luck Bro! heavy weights, low reps build mass, be sure to supplement with high protien and lots of calories everyday!

Geared gave you an excellent program. I'd add some close grip bench presses in there somewhere though. I keep my reps lower 5-8 reps max. My arms have come up alot.

dude my bis are genetically not much. while I have put on a lot of size in them the shape and peak are very lacking. I try to hit the bis 2 times a week (the only muscle i hit twice a week), one day is heavy and the other is light. so far I think it is working for me. I guess it is just hard to over come your genetics, just try to be patient and i will do the same.
