arms and chest

Hi
 
What can I do to get my arms to look bigger.  They do not seem weak but they are very small. Sometimes i get crap on them. Also is there a good workout I can do for my chest which is also pretty small?  I dont have the time or the money to go to a gym.. PS im 14

ok........1st...get a job, second wait 2 years to start lifting.

WTF is wrong with u?
 
Ok do you have a pair of dumbells at home?
I u do u can start doing some curls and arm extensions, anyways u can use this routine if you don't have weights at home
 

ORIGINAL: Gottabefit
Do 3 sets for each circuit (don't rest in between exercises and rest 1 to 1.5 minute for each superset)

1. 20 push-ups
   
2. 30 sit-ups
   
3. 20 squats (jumping squats are way more efficient when doig them with your bodyweight)

2nd circuit 

1. 10 dips (not normal full dips but in between 2 chairs)
   
2. 15 up-downs
   
3. 15 dolphin kicks

by the way don't overdo push-ups, supersetting plyometrics burns more fat

Squat max - 275lbs  30/07/09
Bench max - ¿?
Front Squats(atg)- ¿?

i can give u a routine but u gotta tell me if u can go to a gym or not

Crap about them... lol

Ill try that Gottabefit. Thanks
 
And what are up-downs?

hey man i just realized i missed the part that said u couldnt go to a gym. honestly theres not as much u can do without weights but theres still alot u can do with a full set of dumbells.

some good body weight exercises are:  push-ups, decline push-ups (so line an incline press),  pull ups, chin ups, one legged squats, one legged calf raises, dips (if u can find a place to do them), BW rows, (need something to hang onto), etc...

Im 13 and i have been lifting for 1 1/2 years!  As long as he knows what he is doing and he exercises the right and safe way, andrew125 can lift.  just because you may have started lifting later doesn't mean andrew can't start at a younger age
 
andrew125, pushups are a great chest exercise, i got pecks becuase i do atleast 2 sets of 70 everyday.  if you can't do that many pushups, practice.  when i started doing them I could only do 3; but I keep working at them and now I can do more pushups then anybody in my grade
 
Chin-up are a really good bicep exercise.  if you don't have a chin-up bar at home you can use a monkey bar or the top of a door or really any place that you can hang from.  make sure your chin goes over the bar and you go as far down as you can before you do another rep
 
I know you only asked about arms, but every teenage boy wants a 6-pack and these exercises are how you get it.
For the upper abs you can do standard crunches, or butterfly crunches (i like butterfly crunches because you can really feel the burn). to do butterfly crunches you put the soles of your feet together (like your doing a butterfly strench) and allow you knees to drop as far as they will go towards the floor.  Then proceed to do a regular crunch.
for lower abs, you can do 6-inches and if six inches is to easy put 1 or 2 pillows on your legs to add extra weight.  Pillows may not seem like alot of weight, but try to hold 6-inches with pillows on your legs for 2 minutes and tell me how you feel.  You can also do leg raises, it is kind of the same as 6-inches, but you lift your legs up instead of just holding them in one place; you can also add pillows for extra weight. For your external obliques do bicycles (also called air bike crossover crunch). don't ask me how to explain this because it is really hard to explain, just look in the october issue of "Muscle and Fitness"
 
These are some of the exercises I did (and still do) when I couldn't go to the gym. and trust me, if you do them right, you will see results.  if you need anymore no-gym-needed exercises just ask.  but you should really think about getting a set of dumbells in the house, they help alot

It would be better to do lower reps and add weight

the most important things for abs tho is low bf%

Yah listen to david 1991 he's got the right idea.  I just do that many pushups becuase it really impresses the girls in my class when I drop down and do 50 with them adding weight to my back

lol well thats all thats important in the end

I am the Teacher of teenage bodybuilder to start proper bodybuilding basics. But i dont now some tips to improve arms and chest if any body knows give me information about this.

I'd say 15 is the earliest you should start, period. 

You say you're 13 but your signature says 14??? Surely you know how old you are??

There is never enough time to do everything, but there is always enough time to do the most important thing

Hi

What can I do to get my arms to look bigger.  They do not seem weak but they are very small. Sometimes i get crap on them. Also is there a good workout I can do for my chest which is also pretty small?  I dont have the time or the money to go to a gym.. PS im 14

Dead lift
Squat
Bench
Row
Military
Pullups

If you can bench press more than you can squat you should be ashamed.
