Hi Bladez87,
Your bicep weights are too light!! Do heavier weights - a rough
guide is so that you have difficulties at the last two reps of
every set. And you also have to gradually increase your weights
(ie. pyramid system).
For example:
Set 1: 6 kg x 12 reps
Set 2: 8 kg x 10 reps
Set 3: 10 kg x 6-8 reps (if you can).
This is just a rough guide...you can do 6 kg, 7kg (if there is such
a thing), 8 kg....or even 6 kg, 8 kg, 8kg, etc. Up to you. For me,
it depends on how lethargic I feel that day
.
If you really want to build, its heavy weights with low reps (not
more than 8 reps). And max. 3 times per week. If you do it
everyday, you're just over-straining the muscle.
Oh, don't forget to warm-up and stretch first....and also stretch
after. And you need to eat lah. Just makan and makan proteins -
white meats, egg whites, tofu, etc.
Lastly, don't work only on biceps. Do an overall body workout
(believe me, I made the mistake when young and now some parts are
permanently bigger than others).
Good luck!
