It’s time to wrap up the mini-series on training for bigger arms, with your best questions on how to succeed.

Should you, for instance, train your arms daily for better gains?

And how do you train if one of your arms is in a cast because it’s broken?

You guys had so many good questions today! See the timestamps below. And don’t miss the last one, where we discuss muscle asymmetry between the left and right arm. Having one arm that’s bigger and stronger than the other one, is quite a common worry out there …

Timestamps:

• 03:15—Question 1: Is it counterproductive to train arms every day? By that, I mean to train them hard and with high volume—not just a few reps after the regular training. Some believe that it is not possible to overtrain the arms.
• 09:30 – Questions 2 & 3: What has more visual impact, big biceps or big triceps? And how much of a difference do the shoulders make for the appearance of the arms?
• 12:25 – Question 4: Please give us some fun and effective exercises for the forearms!
• 17:50 – Question 5: Is it possible to train your arm to prevent tearing the bicep tendon while deadlifting?
• 22:00 – Question 6: How should you train if you have a broken arm?
• 26:40 – Question 7: When doing overhead triceps extensions I get a cramp in my left rotator cuff. Is that because of mobility issues, and will it disappear if I just continue doing this movement?
• 30:30 – Question 8: What is the best exercise method to increase 1RM in barbell bicep curls?
• 35:50 – Question 9: I’m 79 years old and I have, against all odds, managed to build substantial biceps and triceps muscles after 5 years of strength training. The problem is that I got bigger muscles in my left arm. I’m right-handed and can handle more with that arm. Should I do more reps with the right arm to trigger those muscles more?
