I have been bulking since July and have reached measurements I am happy with on everything except for my arms. I'm wanting to begin a cut but I wonder if it makes sense to have my arm workout day and the day after still be high calorie for growth. Is it possible to selectively bulk worked out body parts with your nutrition or should I just stick with my bulk until my arms catch up? My arms are currently 15.25" and I'm aiming for 17". All other body part measurements are on, very near, or above target. I am a little loathe to let my waist get any larger on a continued bulk, though my abs are still faintly visible.

Any advice on making my bast*** arms grow would be nice to! :)

My arms wouldn't grow either until I started adding pull ups to my back day and wide grip pull ups to my bench day, they grew like mad for awhile. Curls and tri exercises are for pansies =P.

I seriously doubt you can Selective bulk but of course nothing wrong with cyling calories.

This might blast your arms: Besides that get you pullups, rows and bench press number ups.

I have to praise close-grip benches (grip width about 6-8 inches apart), I swear, if I don't have these in my routine my arms LOSE size.

The issue here is that growing any bodypart doesn't just include the nutrition the day after the workout. It's a surplus of quality calories for many days on end, not just the next day as you don't recover in one day from working a bodypart.

Thank you all for the responses! There's definitely no shortage of nailing my arms with excercises... They've grown that .25 inch over the last 2 months but then again, my forearms have grown fully from 12.5 to 13.5 inches in that same period of time. I have had standard pullups and wide grip lat pullups in my routine for a while, as well as rows and bench. My arm strength has certainly increased but there is just not enough grow to show.

I'm going to change my workout split from chest/back, legs, and arms/shoulders, to a less overtraining chest/tris/shoulders, legs, back/bis. I have been dually hitting my arms on my current routine and I think it's possible that they are overtrained. Thanks BP, I'm going to get those close grip benches in this saturday :drool: , and thank you, swole, I will keep the nutrition high. :tu:
