So you did SS by the book?

Sucks.

Sets of 8-12 reps. Lots of volume. Make sure you isolate biceps, triceps, lats, abs, forearms.

Also do compounds like squats and DL. If you can't squat do leg press or something.

Never ever sets of 5. That's how you make no progress and get fat

what are you lifts? it takes a lot of lifting to look decent despite being overweight.

what's your routine like? if you're not working your arms then it's no surprise that they're small.

how old are you?

>going to get checked up by doctor next week

SS is a meme do a beginner ppl routine.

my routine is first lift of ppl (bench/dl/sqat) is 1x8+5x5, then 2-3 extra exercises at 8-12 reps. Is that gucci?

>>39713753
i guess i can try that. everyone said that just doing compounds first would be best way to start with.

5'9, around 155 lbs now

>squat 130 to 150
>press 60 to 80
>deadlift 130 to 170
>bench 80 to 110

those were my best lifts. in the past month as i was cutting i couldn't even do them with a 10% deload so my lifts varied. like i said, i'm completely out of energy after my first set so i have to continue taking off the weight to be even able to complete it

routine is just compounds and some pullups, curls and rows. i tried to do farmer walks at least 2 per week in addition to curls but my arms size hasn't increased at all, not even biceps.

6 months isn't a long time you stupid cow. And not only that but building your arms takes a long time. I guarantee you're bigger than before. Which you should have monitored if you're so worried about arms. My arms for example, while still small and I don't know when they were 15.5 after a pump, but now they're 16 resting after not having worked out in 2 weeks. I don't notice a difference but they are bigger. You have to actually measure to know since your eyes play tricks on you. They could be 13 inches, but as long as that's bigger than when you started, they ARE growing.

That being said, don't fucking cut. If you're worried about being small, that's dumb. Eat a little less and get your protein. Also isolate your arms.

As for squats, I can't do them anymore either. What I do is trap bar squat 3 sets, and then do bulgarian split squats with a bb. You can also do normal split squats.
And if you don't want to do that, just make the trap bar your new best friend.

Also your wrists will never grow to a reasonable degree. I don't believe they will never grow because I know mine did. But at the most it was a half an inch over years of manual labour and this year of lifting. Don't worry about your wrists or your physical limitations. Just keep fucking lifting.

If you lift and eat, you will grow. You are not big enough to cut

this might be a shock, but you actually might be working out too much, if you are seeing no progress after this much time, it is most likely because you are trying to progress too far too quickly.

increase time between going to the gym to allow your body to recover, get lots of sleep, and make sure you eat enough and right
