how do you even start fixing arms this skinny?

>>39894913
Picking things up and putting them down

>>39894913
Lifting things against gravity + eating food

>>39894925

by at least doing chores in the house

>>39894913
lol my arms looked like that a few months ago, do lots of work on ur tricep, mostly the long head. i did overhead barbell extensions lying down

>>39894913
That's what my arms looked like when I started lifting

In a way it's actually pretty awesome with arms like this, with noob gains progress you just appear to fucking explode

Workout for 6 months and double your size, proceed to get showered with compliments from people you haven't seen since you started

deadlift all the weight

>>39894925
Lifting just makes my wrists feel like they are going to implode

>>39894981
You're curling, right?

You're gripping the bar too tight. Let your wrists relax slightly. Remember you're curling with your biceps and not your wrists.

>>39894981
In what exercises? I get the same feeling with straight bar curls. EZ curl bar makes it much better.

>>39895104
yeh u have shit mobility in ur arms,

>>39894981

You should have maximal tension in all involved muscle groups, if your forearms hurt when curling, it means their working, if they feel like they cant bear the load efficiently, either you're not keeping them straight or you literally have forearms so underdeveloped that your flexors have to default into loading your joints and bone structure, if thats the case do more vertical pulling and grip work. Focus on keeping your wrists straight in all your lifts

No I just have weak skinny wrists.

My wrist diameter is literally 2 inches, the mere act of holding the weight up while I curl is painful

>>39895140
>have forearms so underdeveloped that your flexors have to default into loading your joints
if this is actually a thing that happens it's probably the case, it is a real deep tinging pain

>>39895127
Generally next to impossible, you dont really get tracking issues through the elbows,

>>39894981
Lift lighter, a wrist exercise I did when I was dyel was: close your hand as fast as possible for 30 seconds but dont have your fingers bent like a fist if that makes sense xF

>>39895153
I'm not putting on some faggy wrist wraps to do some curls.

>>39895154
Why are you curling? No beginner program has Curls??

>>39895154
Yeah it is.

Try to deload your curls to like literally 5-10 pounds on the bar and just focus on keeping the movement strict, like unless you have some massive asymmetry in your forearm to bicep strength, I'd say aiming for 12-15 reps strict should allow near perfect loading.

>>39895154
my wrist diameter is 1.8 inch and girth of 5.5 inch kill me

>>39895173
There's nothing wrong with curling. Most brosplits involve it, and even if you're doing >SS you can throw them in there as an accessory. Literally no point to not perform the most comfy exercise of them all

>>39895162
well then, enjoy your tendonitis

>>39895154
Just checked my wrists. I also have a 2 inch wrist diameter and can deadlift 3pl8, which I know isn't that much but still. If your wrists are causing you that much pain then there must be something wrong.

>>39895193
Or I could just use the ezbar or dumbbells which give me no pain.

>>39895212
and no gains either

>>39895173
I don't have a fucking clue what I'm doing, if that wasn't already apparent. I have single arm barbells with either 3 or 5kg on them and I just do some basic bitch exercises

>>39895175
>>39895197
my forearms aren't much wider which probably doesn't help

thanks for the advice so far everyone

>>39895197
On what planet is three plates not much. I come from a rec gym and I see a deadlift over 3 plates maybe once every two weeks, usually from the same people. If you're actually talking for reps that's not bad, thats fucking double bodyweight for most people.

I had arms like you, then I started to

>Chin ups, 25-50 reps total, doesn't matter how you get there
>EZ bar curls, 3-5x8-12. As much weight as you can but make sure you get at least 24 total reps in
>Skullcrusher, 3-5x6-10. This is a monster builder, highly recommend

>>39895225
Well It's not bad I guess but on /fit/ anything less than 4pl8 is dyel.

>>39895225
On /fit/ to be considered average you have to do at least 4 plaet and be at least 6'2
anything less is suicide tier
