Flat arms?

[xbillyx 0]

I've started lifting again (it feels great). I've only been at it six weeks but I'm already noticing my biceps and triceps getting bigger. Anyway, it appears as though my arms are growing out but not getting denser. Does that make sense? Is this normal? Will my arms appear more rounded as I continue to build muscle or should I be doing something else?

What's your routine right now? I assume you mean they are growing wider not taller? I suppose you could be doing a lot of brachialis work and not biceps brachii.

 

Pictures?

Should I add in Preacher Curls? I am already doing dumbbell curls, barbell curls, and rope hammer curls.

There's very little value in doing all these types of curls.

 

It's only been six weeks. Don't sweat it. Seeing any results after such a short period training is fantastic.
