>"If you want big arms, don't train them"

Beginners are delusional. Just think about how fucking stupid it sounds to chase big arms and do lots of arm workouts, when you even lack the basic muscle mass. Nobody is able to do that. No natty will get big arms while having a dyel body.

However, lots of guys get big arms by doing compounds and working arms like rest of the body, doing a few set of curls every now and then.

I got big arms just doing compounts and gymnastic ring workouts. You fucking cunt.

Yeah, don't train them - directly. Focus on compound movements like weighted chins and heavy presses

great advice friend, this is a really good way to ensure your biceps and triceps don't develop adequately.

source: I believed this meme for several years, and have spent the last 2 years trying to correct my arm size as a result.

There is literally no reason to not do a 4x12 curls and tris at the end of your workouts. NO reason to not do those. It takes like 10 fucking minutes.

Do this ab intensity workout. it will focus on your core and get you that six pack

SSfags always spout this and its not something Rippetoe said.

All Rippetoe says in SS is that doing a bunch of arm exercises won't help your athletic performance, which makes sense because SS was made to get skinny freshman football players to a basic level of strength.

>do squats, it hits a lot of muscle groups

Lol, like I wanna be a t-rex

>>35585543
Or you could just do your compounds and add some curls and skull crushers. This fear /fit/ has of becoming a curlbro is getting ridiculous.

>you're wrong but instead of explaining why I'll just spout a buzz word
>I'm so fucking lazy I can't even type out buzzwords so I'll post a picture of buzzwords instead

He's wrong but you have a cucks mentality

This is true. I sometimes do curls just to mire my pump in the mirror. As a sort of reward for a proper workout. There's a lamp right above the mirror too for dat dere flattering downlighting.

No /fit/ doesn't hate curlbros, now we want to be curlbros ironically while mocking training for health.

Everybody wants to be "ottermode but with bigger arms" now.

>>35585758
kek nobody here trains for health. it's either about women or lifting heavy weights
