@jeffnippard I’m hitting my biceps and triceps every day for 30 days straight to see how much they’ll grow. This is my latest upper body workout for the case study, where I hit arms first to prioritize them further. I’m getting ultrasound and circumference measurements each week to see exactly when the growth happens (if it does lol) and then doing a 2 week follow up after the 30 days to see if the growth was just pump/swelling or if I actually built new muscle tissue. I’m on day 16 of 30 now so once the case study is finished, the video with the final results will go up on YouTube soon after. Do you think 30 days is enough time to see significant growth or nah? Love this French press machine, 4 sets x 8-12 reps Mostly doing flyes (as opposed to presses) for my pecs during the case study to better control for triceps volume Isolating the lats/teres here because I’m not doing pull downs during the case study. I just don’t want any indirect bicep work to throw off the volume analytics ha Kelso shrugs! Lately been going a bit lighter and focusing more on squeezing + mind muscle connection with my mid traps 3 sets x 10-12 lean away laterals for side delts ~20 rep cross body reverse pec deck lengthened partials for rear delts to finish
