I always see people at gym doing these bullshit exercises incorporating different cables, ropes, weight balls etc; without incorporating any of the core compound movements such as squats, deadlifts, chin-ups/pull ups and the bench press. Ask yourself a question; have u ever seen a guy with scrawny legs being able to squat twice his body-weight (with correct form) or a guy benching 1.5 his bodyweight who has small triceps and/or chest. Well the same can be said with deadlifts and chin-ups. Unless you not hitting these mofos hard; you will struggle to make the size and strength gains you so desire. Focus on the chin-ups/deadlifts, followed by a few basic sets of barbell curls, and forget the spider curls, reverse curls, supermans and all the other crap being fed by Mens Health and all these other bs fitness magazines.
I can't agree with you more GSP. I haven't done bi's or tri's in years and I'm very happy with the size of my arms! I get some guys in gym coming up to me and asking what my arm routine is like and I say heavy deadlifts, bench, weighted chin ups, squats...and you can just see the confusion in their eyes when I tell them that. Guys need to realise that your body generally grows in proportion and no amount of curls is gonna give you big arms if you don't do the big compound lifts to increase your overall size.
Focus on your back, chest and legs with heavy compound lifts (with correct form or you wasting your time) and your arms will grow along with the rest
