This is a message I preach all the time...You CAN build big arms WITHOUT heavy weights...And I'm going to show you the 5 best exercises to do so in today's brand new video...
Gary I always like your videos. I am in my 50s been working out 42 years. I am done with heavy weights. Joint problems every where. I haven't been to the gym in 3 months. I have a set of 20 lb dumbbells and trying to stay fit with the dumbbells, bodyweight and occasionally resistance bands. I can't wait to try this arm routine Saturday. Thanks for sharing your knowledge brother. God bless
Just turned 71,been care giving my wife for 3 years, cardio is good 2 miles everyday for the last 3 months One day per week rest, Time to get some mass Back into it ,common sense stuff for us Older guys, Thanks so very much, Great instruction, I'm IN .
Good man. I'm 65, in better shape than most forty year olds I know. I've been my mom's (95) caregiver for three years and if it wasn't for running or working out, I'd go insane. Working on arms and shoulders as I'm getting weaker by the Birthday. Keep it up friend!
Ive been looking for workout videos specially focused for people over 40s and beyond. Not many out there and lots of content makers made videos for young gym guys. So this is the best channel. Im 44 and i wanna thank live anabolic for creating channel for people of our age group. Thank you. 🙏💪
I have looked at alot of workout videos, I'm 62 and love to workout , I have family and friends ask me how do you get so huge, and I always said light weight , control , and resistance , thanks for this awesome video.
I'm 61 and I've been skinny my whole life...until now. I'm now muscled and in the best shape of my life. My overall goal was simply to fill out a shirt. When I heard you talking about filling out the sleeves of a t-shirt, I was in. That's the hardest part for me now. I tried all of these excursises and I can really feel it.
Good stuff! And for those of you who are doubters still don't be. I am about 6 ft and 180 lb and I have generally larger and better filled arms than a lot of guys that use twice the weight I use. I do watch my diet and that helps show some vascularity and cuts but I primarily work with 10 lb at the lightest up to 25 lb as the heaviest for my bicep workouts. Tricep workouts I bump up just a bit but I always pay strict attention to form and time under tension. Have fun and great video!
I'm near retirement age, a woman, and want to keep muscle tone in my arms. I've lifted weights, off and on, since my teens whether body weight or dumbbells. This is an excellent video with emphasis on form and tension. Thank you for making this arm video! 😍
Congrats on getting near retirement. Also don't be afraid to buy the HEAVY duty resistance bands (the one inch flat wide ones) to take with you on the road if you go on a trips. Helps a lot in keeping toned. Do squats with them, "bench" press(band is behind your back and you push with your arms) overhead press etc. The correct bands are awesome.
After 2 days I felt soreness in my triceps. I haven't had sore triceps as far as I can remember .The close grip pushups were difficult I must admit. Great workout to change things up ! Thanks !
I'm 58 and I tried your arm workout . You are on point. I really got a good bicep and tricep workout. I will continue following the protocol thank you again
Great video I have been doing 50 reps I get a pump and do 20 minutes cardio so at the end of the work out 300 reps all light weight lam 62 and my job about 40 thousand steps a week 1 work out on weekend 2 work outs during the week 50 to 55 hours a week thanks for your videos
Thank you for posting this as the day of my hoisting heavy weights are long gone. An old lifter at my gym told me about the 100rds. Has anyone every heard of that? 100 reps with very light weights.
Just saved all of your videos. I'm 54 and looking like 30. I have dumbbells and you gave me great ideas on light dumbbells. Thank you for the information. Will continue this until God calls me home.
Simple but effective, I used to do the 21's. They really do work, my arms were always pumped after 21's. Good feeling, I use weights to help my mental health.
I’m 71 I really like your video I generally would not make a comment but it was so good that I thought u deserved a big thumbs up I subscribed and will be implementing you in my workout process
Fantastic Gary! Your Ripped in 6 series is also a keeper! Best fitness channel around without the selling and hype. Oh! Let us not forget the Tri Con series as well.
Excellent advice, thank you for explaining about the workouts, wasn't focusing on the tri's, but once I did, I saw what you meant about the 2/3rds of the muscle being there, been focusing too much on the bi's, but when combining these, Kapow !
Thanks Gary, I am 60 and find this very effective. One question, you suggested to do twice a week. Inbetween days shall we stop doing any other arm related workouts?
You sir have inspired me. 55 and normally workout at McDonald's. Buying dumbells today and getting motivated. I'm going to hit this religiously. I'm your new subscriber. Now I need a diet plan 😎
Quality over quantity…light weights,good form during repetitions, and full concentration. Spider or Preacher curls followed by incline bicep curls (twist the wrist/arms outward with each rep.) finishing up with standing straight bar cable curls. Triceps- single dumbbell nose breakers on a flat bench,seated preacher tricep push downs,finish up with standing cable tricep push downs with straight bar. 59 years old 18 1/2 “ arms flexed.
By chance I saw your video, I was so impresed that after one video i have subscribed myself and now watched your other video. Grt workout for older! nice
Gary, I just found you yesterday. I'll be 52 next week. I did heavy lifting in the Navy, mostly heavy benching and shoulder work, so my left shoulder is shot. The overhead triceps extension used to be one of my favorite exercises and now it's my hardest. Any recommendations on the best triceps extension that will have the same effect as the overhead for someone with a bad shoulder?
Many reps is a substitute for the heavy low reps.This video is good for older men. Iam 63 and this type of working gives you results size and endurance
All exercises are very excellent and brilliant sirji of biceps and triceps and keep going hard and be strong always And can you suggest me a protein powder without soya protein and soya lecithin because I am allergic to it and give the name of protein powder and then I will take it
Mannn! Great exercises you’re sharing. As a 70 year old. I’m following & using your prescriptions, when I can’t get to the gym. Thank You My Brother…& keep sharing….
Wow, what a great video! I've been doing more reps at the gym with lower weights, but I've been using machines! I'm now planning to introduce your dumbbell exercises to my work out! Thank you Sir!
Most of us know that each person needs something a little different than the next guy. So I'm not trying to get exact. But some of us would like for you to give a specific number of reps and sets to use with these exercises. We can each adjust those to better "fit" us individually as we work out our own routine. But it might be nice to have a starting point. It took me close to a year to become comfortable with my routine. First, I was told/suggested to try strength training for the first year before body building. I actually don't wish to focus on body building ever. But recently I came to realize that I just may be having trouble moving up with the amount of weight because my muscles are really not growing much. So I changed my routine to encourage growth. The growth focus is a simple 20 Lb dumbell curl ten times with each arm for three sets. The strength part is a bit more complicated so I won't describe all of it. I'm just concerned if the three sets of ten bicept curls is enough to promote at least some growth of the bicept.
Love skullcrushers! My absolute favorite! Slow is,the way to go! 21's & hammer curls r great, too! Am 67 year old female & these r great for women as well. Don't forget us! TFS 💪
stretch movements absolutely but id do them second and do high rep cable type work first to get more blood into the muscle and protect tendons and ligaments.
Thanks! Just had hernia surgery and can't lift heavy. Do you have any suggestions for these workouts with 10lb weights such as how many sets/reps with the 10lb dumbbells? Thanks!
57 work out with my daughter.Always told her it's not about the weight ,but the form and connection. I don't always go light, like to switch up to shock muscle.One of the best things don't fall into a routine. Change is good, never set reps.I never say going to do 8 or 10.Plays with your mind, go to failure each set.
Good Morning I just watched this Video and definitely looks like something I’ve been looking for I have very limited limitations due to my disabilities. My most worst area is my arms especially those bat wings LOL . Thank You will come back with Results 😀
Can’t do the 2nd tricep ex b/c of a past rotator cuff injury. For #3 ex I have that sore shoulder so inplace of close grip push ups I do close grip bench press.
I just turned 50 and I have worked out on and off for 30 plus years I took time off from 48 to 49 about a year and I have noticed it’s gotten a lot harder to make those gains
Thank you very much for this video. Question for you, have no cartilage between my L4-L5, how do I work out my lower body without making my back issues worse.
Really good information... like the fact you don't need heavy weights.. I think you can stress yourself out just thinking of heavy weights, and as we all know stress is no good to anyone! Thank you... needed this video being older than some!
TY very much for the Video. I'm 55, and I work with many 20 and early 30 yr olds. I know Father Time can be quite difficult BUT, I really, really want to at least represent. Lol. Stay safe Sir!
I do 3 sets of 10 every other day and I’m 50. Need to incorporate a couple of the different ones you show. Should I only do these twice a week or is three times not ok. Thanks
This is a message I preach all the time...You CAN build big arms WITHOUT heavy weights...And I'm going to show you the 5 best exercises to do so in today's brand new video...
Complete 3 sets of an exercise before moving on to the next exercise, or complete a set of each and repeat 3 times? Thanks for the great routines!
Gary I always like your videos. I am in my 50s been working out 42 years. I am done with heavy weights. Joint problems every where. I haven't been to the gym in 3 months.

If your in your sixty’s and your already huge by your own admission why do you thank someone for something you obviously already know?

Could you send us a full video on Tricon works outs thank
If I'm 31 trying to put on a lot of mass and eating like crazy could I do these 3 times a week or would that be overdoing it
Nice I’m going to try
Thank you sir 🙏🙏🙏
How about a video on all the supplements taken over 50?
Good reps. I like to do the pushups on my knuckles to take the wrist out of it especially when i have a lot of arm pump which locks up the wrists.
Thanks for the video, going to the gym today and try it out 💪 77 I've had 3 hip replacements, not stopping. Maybe just a little slower
what should I do if I can't do the dumbbell pushups because I have had both of my shoulders totally replaced
Thanks a lot for the vidio
My pleasure!
Thanks Gary. Great routine.
Very interesting. Thanks for posting this.
