Background
Well I have always been skinny so I wanted to get bigger. My brother is pretty big (in a muscular way) and he helped me get into lifting. He has taught me a lot but he is kinda tied up with 4 kids now.
I love working out because I love the challenge to better my self and to see the progress I have made.

Ronnie Coleman Quotes for Biceps to get peak and bulk:
"I start my routine with one arm cable curls. At the start of each rep, I let my arm hang fully extended, while still supporting the full pressure of the weight. Then, while keeping the rest of my body motionless, I curl the weight slowly upward. At the midpoint, I hold the weight and 'squeeze' the biceps for a full contraction. Then, I slowly release the weight to the starting position. As stated previously, the descent phase is where cables really come into their own, as they allow you to maintain full stress on the muscles at all times."
"I train to failure, so if during a particular workout I hit 15 and still have something left, I'll continue until a full rep is impossible. I employ the failure principle with all my biceps exercises. "
"My second exercise is bar cable curls. In terms of adding bulk throughout the entire biceps muscle, I find this movement to be superior."
"I complete my biceps routine with an exercise I call the cable crossover curl, which builds maximum peaks while bulking up the entire biceps muscle. This is a much neglected exercise (it doesn't even have a standard name) but one that seems custom made for a competitive bodybuilder."
"I start this exercise by holding cable attachments in each hand. I keep my arms straight, fully extended and parallel with the floor. Then I hit a double biceps pose and, in the fully flexed position, I squeeze the muscles for a maximum burn. Finally, I slowly release the weight to the starting position. Again, the biceps are under pressure throughout the whole set, and as you eke out the reps, you'll find you get a great pump. "
"Without letting you ego carry you away, go as heavy as your strength allows for the strict execution of each movement. 'Strict' means no cheating of the exercises by calling secondary muscle groups into play. Your goal is to build the best biceps your genetics will allow, so isolate the biceps and don't let other muscle groups assist in moving the workload. The most common biceps training mistake is over training."
From Flex Magazine, October 1995
