i suppose it's an "ok" routine..

however, you really are hindering yourself from getting huge gains and "bulking up" by training like this.

you would benefit MUCH more from either utilizing a 3-day fullbody routine, or a split routine... each with LOTS of compound lifts.

you have no idea how much bigger your biceps will grow once you get large amounts of human growth hormone released.... but this probably won't happen if you keep up with your forearm/bicep isolation routine.

My name is FOX.... and I approve this message.

He is saying you should focus on doing compound moves, not in bodyparts.

Squats, bench pressing, deadlifts, pull ups, barbell rows or power cleans, chin ups. All these will train your whole body
