Well I gave up the weights for a bit while I went on holiday, started a new routine based on what you gave me earlier and the results are amazing. I lift maybe half what I used to over 25 reps over 5-6 sets once a week, I ache like hell for a good 3 days.

Once my arms look like the belong to the rest of my body I will start working on other areas.

Thanks again.
