Are you using good form??, are you concentrating on the eccentric phase of the lift too??? I your not feeling it in your muscles try making your reps longer. like do 6-8 reps with a 3 sec. concentric phase and a 4 sec. eccentric phase (up/down) If your going to muscular failure you will feel a burn, just gotta bust that ass!!!

I also suggest it's form. I can get a massive burn in my bicep doing 1 or 2 reps if I do it properly i.e. 3 sec curl up and 3 sec down. As for when to get a spot - I always get a spot for the last two reps i.e. I do as many as I can without a spot and then two forced reps with a spotter. Your workout looks fine. Just remember to focus on the rep rather than the set. IP: Logged |
