>skeleton so start lifting dumbbells
>on 25 pound ones right now and do like 3-4 sets of 20 reps
>can't curl or anything else with 30 pounders cause too weak, so i have to keep doing this ridiculous number of reps that makes the lifting take way longer than it should
it gets better right fit?
>>38083277
For you? No. You have no direction. What are you actually trying to do.
>>38083277
>can curl 25s for 20 reps
>cant curl 30s
Bullshit, you should at least be able to do 6-12 decent reps with 30s

Do you have a gym membership?
>>38083277
Do some chinups faggot
First off, read the sticky.
You mean to tell me that you can do 20 reps with 25lbs, but can't do a single rep with 30lbs? What are you fucking retarded? Struggle through 8 reps with the 30 you pussy
>>38083277
Well you fucked up by starting off with curls. Build you strength up before you become a curlbro

does my bedroom count as a gym membership
>>38083336
No op but similar situation, how would I go about getting stronger
>>38083355
No.
Be realistic, nobody got big rolling around on their bedroom floor. I'm telling you now, you will not achieve the goal you have in mind with a dumbell and a bit of floor space.
>>38083370
I dunno. Maybe a strength program? Fuck.

Doing compounds that involve the biceps will help. Chin ups, suppinated grip barbell rows, etc.
Also if you're doing curling 25 for 20 reps, you should be able to curl 30 for 12, 35 for maybe 5-7.

This, if you're stalling on a certain exercise, you should try progressing in other exercises that target the same muscle group.

He has only ever trained muscular endurance, never muscular strength

Even pronated grip hits bicep. It just hits weaker mucles in the forearm as well
