bicep mass exercises

6389 Posts: 23 Joined: 2005/03/15	2006/02/15, 06:44 AM Hi I was wondering whether it was a good idea to do barbell curls against a wall to isolate the bicep and build mass. Also are cable curl drop down sets a good idea, doing 8 reps on a heavy weight, then dropping the weight and doing 8 reps, drop the weight do eight reps and so on.

So start squatting,rowing, benching, dealifting, and military pressing. -------------- Get your bicep curling, cut off shirt, matching workout outfit wearing,flexing in mirror "toned" wanna-be ass , out of my squat rack!

I can't clean much anymore...Cause I can't 'rack" the bar where it needs to be.

This is what I have to do, especially when push pressing or jerking. Could you maybe go wider too? -------------- Iron and chalk. Pain is only temporary, it is in your mind.
