ARMS For biceps work, Arnold did curls of all kinds. One technique he used to shock his biceps was to start by doing 1 rep with 275 pounds, and then 2 reps with a little less weight, and then 3 reps with a little less. This is how I would go up without ever putting the barbell down. I wanted to let the biceps know that they didnt know what was coming, that they werent going to get used to my training method, and that I had all kinds of tricks up my sleeve. ARNOLD RELIED ON THE BARBELL CURL TO BUILD THICK BICEPS. Arnold relied on the barbell curl to build thick biceps, but he also used incline dumbbell curls and concentration curls to isolate his biceps. Heavy concentration curls isolated the biceps to create that peak. You need that biceps peak for back shots. For triceps, Arnold says, we did a lot of narrow [close-grip] bench press in the early days. And then triceps push downs and overhead triceps extensions later.
