If it's possible, could you tell me specifically what exercises I should do for them, about how long, etc, etc?

Thanks!

echohype,
never stop dreaming! These guys in the pictures are professional athletes who have been training for years.
How big your arms will get is partially up to genetics.
try the freetrainers spceialty program for arms (look in the exercise area).
The bioggest mistake guys tend to make starting out is overtraining their arms (or chest) in an attempt to make them grow. Rest and recovery and good nutrition will play just as big a role as the right type and amount of workout.
Good luck!
