This department starts out with a photo of Frank Zane and Dave Draper spotting for Arnold with a 295 pound behind the neck press. Arnold was asked what his favorite bicep exercise was? He responded that without a doubt it was the one arm concentration curl. Arnold said it isolated the bicep and built a supreme peak. Arnold does five sets of 10 to 12 repetitions. He then recommended his book, “Building Massive Arms.”
Arnold was also asked if bodybuilders were strong? He said he wasn’t the strongest or weakest guy out there. He does curls with 100 pound dumbells, bent arm pullovers with 350, bench presses with 405 for six reps and calf raises with over 1,000 pounds. Not bad!
Arnold also gave advice about knee injuries and the origin of his training. Arnold designs his own workout routines but uses Weider training principles.
