triceps biceps size gain


I do bi's and tri's on the same day, i was wondering what is the best method for gaining big time mass on them?? do bi's then tri's??

I do:
Barbell curl - 4 x 4-6 reps
Hammer Curl - 4 x 4-6 reps
Preacher Curl - 4 x 4-6 reps

Tri's
Close grip bench press - 4 x 4-6 reps
lying french curl - 4 x 4-6 reps
1 arm overhead - 4 x 4-6 reps


I am wondering whether that is enough volume??? Should i do more than 12 working sets for each side of the arm???

I would also like to know what you lot eat to get so big - i eat chicken, tuna, pasta, potatoes, rice, bread, protein shakes and am still not gaining!! how many cals per meal????

Heya mbuk04, what you can try is SUPERSET each bicep routine with the tricep routine in order, by a superset i mean you compelte the bicep routine and then immediately commence on the tricep routine, something like ill show you below your midified workout to inlcude supersets.

SupersetPart 1
Barbell curl - 4 x 4-6 reps
Close grip bench press - 4 x 4-6 reps?? I would probably do Skullcrushers 4 x 4-6

SupersetPart 2
Hammer Curl - 4 x 4-6 reps
lying french curl - 4 x 4-6 reps

SupersetPart 3
Preacher Curl - 4 x 4-6 reps
1 arm overhead - 4 x 4-6 reps

And the deal with this is forexample in supersetpart 1, you perform 1 set of the barbell curl and start immediately on the close grip benchpress / skullcrusher and then have a breather, then continue the second time around barbell curl then closegrip / skullcrushers immediately then take a breather once you have done the 4 supersets for SupersetPart1
now start SupersetPart 2 in the same manner and part 3.

Hope it helps give you an idea becuase i think that training revolves around Intensity in the shortest amount of time, so supersetting is great in that respect
