Monster biceps!
Doing 4 x 8 of hammer grip chin ups, very slow and strict has my biceps bursting. Strange.
Reverse grip bar curls, hammer curls, wrist curls
And arm isolation work is important. Yes you'll work them a lot with back work, but you don't have to work them on the same day. For example, if you did Chest/Biceps on Tuesday, then Back on Friday, nothing wrong with that.
The thing not to do is a crazy amount of sets, do about 10 sets, 12 max on bicep isolation stuff. And leave your ego at the door, do weights that you can concentrate on form with. Too heavy and you're going to swing, or bring your shoulders into it.
If you do biceps on a day separate to back, go for something like this:
Incline Curls 3x12
Hammer Curls 3x8
Preacher Curls 4x10
If you do them after back, just go for something like
Lying Hammer Curls 4x8
EZ Bar Curls 3x12
21's One Set
Ta for the input.
Reason i'm keeping things linear is because every time in the past (since 2009) i've just 'gone for it' ive injured myself, and in all honesty i'd rather take it slowly and gain over time, after all ii'm in this for the long run hopefully.
At the end of the day, i'm making gains, poundages are going up. Yes, it probably could be done a better way no doubt, but it'd working for me currently.
Yes, i'm anal about form, but i'm not posting vids up every week? I just posted one from last weeks DL session just to see how things are getting on. As has been said, i'm going to up the DL weights by 5KG each session, not sure I want to do that on squats just yet for obvious reasons, because I'm starting to hit max for reps now as it is...That coupled with a lack of decent catchers I don't want to get stuck under the bar again.
Thanks again though dude, I appreciate the replys
Can we banz0r bicep exercise talk?!

Double over hand is tasty for grip. I use alternating grip for normal deadlift work, because my double over hand isn't there yet. On leg days I do RDL with DOH grip and I'm holding onto the bar with my fingertips by the 10th rep!
Do you use chalk? If not buy some now.
