How do you really train your bi's to get that baseball look on them. I want to train the peaks. I have strong, large biceps right now, but I don't have that huge peak I want in them. Any good exercises to train for that?

Hey..
you may be limited by your genetics.. however there is something you can try. Concentration curls are great for this.. be sure to flex extra hard at the top. Also inclined bench dumbell curls are great too. Be sure to really contract the muscle hard at the top of the movements.
Good Luck

I have a question...I have fairly large biceps 18.5 inches. So size is not really the problem I have, nor is a peak I just do not have the genes for that..what I was wondering if any of you have ever gone thru a period where you can lift the weight ( heavy or light) but not get a pump at all. i feel it a little but not like I use to. I have changed the exercises, reps , set number, and the weight. I have found that I can not do as many sets as say a year ago. And the overall strength has gone down. I have had a bad arm for a month (tendonitist) where I took the entire month off. Any thoughts?

Mutt, as you say, you probably just lost some strength. You could try to increase the volume of your arm routine (this is a PL technique). Work no greater than about 82% of your 1RM for all your arm exercises, for 6-10 sets. Do this for about 4 weeks, then begin to increase the load (up to 95% of your 1RM), for 1-3 sets. The volume training should help kickstart your strength gain...
