Ok i hope a professional sees this. So my trainer gave me a course of 3 days where i do the same exercises twice a week and rest for a day. The course consist of legs and abs first day, back and shoulders the second day, and arms (bi, tri, and forearm) and chest, then repeat. So i've heard overtraining is bad. So i'm just asking, am i overtraining my arms? Because considering the strength in my arms, i'm very strong compared to what they look like. I'm bothered by it as when i was younger my arms were not an issue and i could easily get them in shape, but it is only recently that i started having trouble with arms and cant seem to be able to get them more defined, its just one chunk of meat that looks like Everest. Please help.

So I used to workout a lot. I used to get a pretty good pump on my biceps and triceps etc. I recently started working out hard again. My back, chest, and pretty much my entire body gets pumped after a good workout. But my biceps aren-t. Every time I work them out they just get weaker during the workout. Not swollen or pumped with blood. I feel no tightness in them as my workout progresses. Instead I feel like I-m not activating my bicep during the workout. It just feels weak. When I-m working out and I get all that blood flowing to those muscles I can flex them and it feels good feeling that pumped muscles. But I can-t even flex my biceps properly their so weak. Anyone know what I-m talking about?

Hey man! This video was extremely helpful but i still cant figure out whats going on with me. My left arm is significantly smaller than my right. I train with very strict form and because of this i do pretty much only unilateral movements for arms but i cant seem to even them up. My left bicep can never really get that full contraction and same with my tricep and whenever i-m doing curls or tricep workouts my delts on my left side spaz out, my lats activate and it feels very odd. I cant find any info about this online and i-m getting very discouraged. I have no idea what to do and it looks really bad. - Please help.

Hi
Thank you for the video, I wasn-t getting a response on my left bicep when I concentrate on it, I check my form all the time and ask around to check on it. I-m not too worried on growth, just if I-m doing it right or not.
I have better control on my right bicep like when you concentrate as you do a curl or something but when I do the same thing for my left bicep, I do not get the same response as I do on my right. I-ll try that different hand position on the dumbbell and see if I can get control over my left bicep when I concentrate on it.

I have been lifting for 33 years and always had trouble hitting my biceps. All the other muscles seemed to want to work for them. Today, I watched this video, got up, went into my weight room (yup. I work out at home with Olympic bars and the whole lot) and tried these with the grip that has the strapping on it. I have never used that one before because I thought it was a joke thrown in with my other gear to make me feel like the shop gave me a free gift. I will be using that grip all the time now! Thanks so much for the tip!

Jeff,
First, thanks for all the videos. You-ve been the greatest influence in my fitness life.
Do you have stretching exercises that may help with re-gain full contraction of the bicep and tricep?
I-ve gotten checked for shoulder impingement and tendinitis, but nothing. Doctors say I-m fine. I believe I-m suffering with the tightness of my shoulders/back that-s holding me back from curling, tricep pressing and benching.
Let me know if you (or anyone here) videos about this issue others may be suffering.

Bruh you are a genius when it comes to new ways to target specific muscles in very very specific ways.
Edit: I'm still having problems after trying these. Every time I do any variation of any type of curls, my forearms always burn before my biceps do. Especially the upper part of my bicep (close to my armpit, I feel nothing. I also cannot find any bicep exercise that lessens the use of the forearm. Anyone have suggestions or have experiences these issues like me?

Need your help Jeff. Had a slight labrum repair on my right shoulder. Now when I-m lifting I barley get a pump in that arm. My right arm is my dominant arm, but tends to be weaker some days. My left arm explodes and gets an insane pump. So when I look at my right arm and compare pumps I get discouraged and it stops my focus. What do I do? Do I have scar tissue built up in my shoulder? I need some help. Anyone.

Thx Jeff! Certainly a timely reminder. I play the violin and somehow my left bicep has a much better peak than the right! I guess some genetics is in play but I can-t help but think the 35 years of supination on the left has some part in it. To make things worse, the right hand is always pronated when playing. Any violin players who work out would care to share? :)
